Default Primo Build Thread

I'm doing a build thread over on the ProBro site on my new design the Primo... I thought I share the build with some of you guys that don't get out as much...

Basically this is like a mojo with a thinner wing, longer tail moment, cap style horizontal stab, modified fuse and rounder rudder.....

So... I guess it's nothing like a mojo.... Well the wing span is the same.

I'm scratch building a lot of this one... I'll start the fuse first. There are lots of curved parts, so I'll start by making those out of 1/8" x 3/8" balsa. I wet two pieces then coated one side with wood glue to make the bends. Then I cut some blocks and shaped them to act as formers.
