Really good work you did on the covering!
I'm also putting one together at the moment.
The manual says to put flying wires on the tail, have you done that and is it really necessary?

I used to have the 31% CA Extra, flew great. What does this plane weigh? I was thinking of buying the 34%.
Thanks Duane

Dear friends.
Thanks for you coments!
About flying wires on the tail i think that is better but one friend of mine have one too and did not put and the plane fly very well... But the elevator is too thin and to long.
About engine is one ZDZ 120 B2... and i recomend one 106 from 3W cause have more power and is more agressive!

ONE SECRET: inside the plane i cover plywood with ORACOVER with carbon squeme, is not really carbon, but the look is very nice!

Thanks.
I am working now in one Rapzody from F3A Lorenz and one KATANA 39 % from Krill Model... for F3A and for F3M it is a great airplanes!

JM
