Very nice, is that a bagged tail? That wing is thin, should go fast.

Thank you and yes a bagged tail 5.4oz carbon over 3/16th.in. balsa. I ment to mention that weight is of just what you see, no gear or wing. Thank's for your input gentlemen.

Assuming you have no spar, the weight seems quite light for DS regardless. I think if you can get to around 18oz / sf wingloading it will DS fine in 15mph wind. Now paint that sucka!

That build thread is one of the pillars of fast/ heavy/ cheap building IMO andI learnt so much from it. Happy reading!
