Painting the canopy forward is aesthetically an unexpected thing for me  y1
I built a Blue Pants as a kid. Wish I still had it. Might even learn to fly it.

no, just the over all original shape .the wing is a cast off F2C wing by Jason Allen  that was too heavy for TR,cut down to size .it started out at 5/16 and tapered to 1/8 at the tips.the stab is 3/32 bass and the rudder is 1/32 ply
