thanks guys!, if the weather plays its part, il be able to test fly tomoro(i like teting outside in long grass, cant break aeroplanes) the auw is final at 181g WITHOUT battery. if all goes well, ill do my best to get a set of plans out(not sore if there are any legal issues with using a smove fuselage on my plan????? it is different but ever so slightly)
can everyone mayb post there models here so we can all see them, please

Hi Paul, thanks, to be honest the weather is bad somedays and good on others, but im sure i can summon a tornado, just by building a new foamy and charging my lipolys. wenever ineed to test one of them we have gale force winds. today it is decent but freezing cold!
