Default Sneak peak - Master designer/builder Mr. Habib-Ur-Rehman Mufti from Pakistan

Excited to share this with you guys, tell us what you think. It's a 120.3" scratch built and self designed plane from master builder and designer Mr. Habib-Ur-Rehman Mufti from Pakistan. I'm including the link of our one and only national aeromodeling site where more pics are added:

It's going to be powered by a 3W 150 CS. The anticipated wing loading is going to be somewhere between 32-34 ppsq. I'll add more info once this comes together.

Looks good. Has many features similar to a Carden build.
How about some specs like engine, current weight, expected weight, servos, radio etc

Doh you answered some questions when I was typing

I'll update this thread with complete info once I get all the exact details from Mr. Habib. From what I know so far is that all the servos are going to be Hitec TGs except the rudder which is going to be a Seiko Servo. The tail wheel and the landing gear are carbon fiber and are self fabricated by Mr. Habib at his workshop. Cowl and Canopy is also self fabricated by him. As for the current weight, wingspan, expected wingloading etc I'll update once I get to have a chat with him.

Update on the build:

The covering has been started and so far the horizontal stab has been finished; since yesterday was flying day at the field so no work was done on the plane on yesterday.

The cowl has been painted too and the hardware in fuse has been installed.

I asked Mr. Habib about the design and the numbers which are important so here's the detail:

Engine: 3W 150 (Competition Series)
Wing Span: 122"
Wing Area: 2820 Square Inches
Expected Wing Loading: 26-28 ounces per square feet
Radio: JR PCM 9X with 2.4Ghz Module
Servos: Hitec TG5955 all around except Seiko PS-050 on Rudder
Batteries: 2 Lithium Ion 5.2amp/hr batteries for Receivers and 1 Lition-Ion 5.2amp/hr for Ignition module
Power Expander: SmartFly Power Expander Pro
Power Regulator: SmartFly Turbo Regulator
Smoke System: Sullivan Skywriter Smoke System
Fuel Tanks: 2 Dubro 40ounches tanks (1 for Gasoline and 1 for Smoke)

So far this plane is being called the "Germal V2"; it's been named after it's Dad, "Germal" (inspired from the colors of German flag that has been used on the covering)

We all fly at the same flying field. It's in the heart of Islamabad (Capital of Pakistan). Really nice place, lush greenry all around.

Dang man. Another one. Prolific is all I can say. What are you going to do with all those planes on the stands ? Is this the stretch limo version so you can do torque rolls in tail slides down to the deck. Let me know when the test flight is to be held so I can drive down maybe - the rate at which you are going it'll probably be next weekend.
