drawing looks good. whats the span going to be??

pitviper51 · 01-12-2007, 11:29 PM

span is 20 inches, yep tiny!!! call it a mini missle haha it should rock!, the cores are from a small electric flying wing,, made to go about 70 mph, so this lil thing once its a clean glider should be smoken fast in theright lift

well i got the wing cores early, WOHHOOO, still need to order radio gear, so i wont beable to do much till i have that, but i should be able to get started on the wing set up, and get to the point i can install gear, but i think ill spackle over the wing and gear to make very smooth surface, dunno yet, heres a pic
