The N9M-B Flite Test "Kraken" Kit Bash

I finally found a set of plans for a wing that would work to make a Northrup N9M-B... The "Flite Test" guys have a wing called the "Kraken" and it had the right dimensions with a few mods to look like the N9M-B. I added some wingtip extensions, drag rudders and leading edge slots. I have all of the flight gear installed along with a 3 axis gyro but still working on the motor mounts which will be made from lite ply and will also be removable. The size... well it's almost 8 foot. Should be a fun one to fly!

Hey that looks great. I've been a big fan of flight test for a long time. They are a big reason I'm back into the hobby. The kraken alone seems to fly well. Can't wait to the this thing.
