More pictures. I started hollowing out the the rear fuse. I also redid the front of the intake so I could have a smoother, larger inlet. I made a dummy paper duct yesterday but unfortunatly I lost it.
 The canopy needs some more foam under it for more curve. This of course means cutting more of the fuse. |

Thanks MeGrim. Its one of my favorites too!
Working on the canopy right now. Re-working its position on the fuse. This also changes the shape of the nose to be rounder and more scale. |

Looking good Adriel... I was looking at my ol balsa XL hanging up in the shed these days... thinking of reviving it now that b/less motors are dirt cheap compared to 4 years ago!!
Go with the indonesian scheme! Blue grey and white ;-)! The XL looks good in those colours! http://media.nowpublic.net/images//5...d0e8f897e9.jpg http://static.rcgroups.com/gallery/d...inished_04.jpg |
