I am impressed with all the care you took to make a clean and straight build, thanks for sharing your techniques.

Boy, my Cub didn't look this clean, and it was all laser etched wood.

Used 50/50 Elmer's/Water to attatch tissue. I wil let it dry for 24 hours then shrink the tissue with water and apply 2 coats of dope. I will use red trim and no paint. I used domestic tissue so I applied it tighter than I would Esaki tissue.

Weight is not bad, hope to keep it under 30 grams.

These kits are designed with a lot of wood, but thatis what makes them look nice. Of course you will never win any freeflight contest.

The important thing for a good flying model is making sure everything is straight.

Building a Guillows Piper Cub. I am building this kit for nostalgia, but I also want it to fly. I am keeping the structure the same but will use LHS wood. The wood in the kit is horrible.
