Awards Showcase
Norm Abrams Master Craftsman Award: Master Craftsman. Simply an amazing builder! - Issue reason: Your the man when it comes to Balsa 
Total Awards: 1
Default Ultra Light 55% Extra 260

I have been building up a kit for this over the last two months, and this afternoon, I finally got to work on the build for a couple hours, felt great. The weight of this motor box at this stage is very close to the weight my 40% Carden at the same stage of completion, the real difference is the choice of material made for this airframe.

The span will be 164", length, 144" power plant, DA 170cc.
