Watch the weight!

A very attractive model. Best built lighter than the plan suggests; both wing spars & all ribs can be cut from 1/32" sheet, as can the fuselage side infills above the lower wing. The elevators as shown don't clear the tail cone & need shortening. Very prone to stalling on the climb, so add as much down-thrust as possible. I'm using 3x hook-peg loop of 3/32" rubber with around 800-1000 turns. Mine is 16.5g in flying trim & will fly for about 30s outdoors, but needs very calm conditions.
