John Cooper | 23-Oct-09 11:47 | Great looking and light too. At 20g, including rubber, you have the potential for a great flying model. |

rope01 | 23-Oct-09 13:49 | Thanks for the comments. Its only my second build so I'm pretty pleased. I am a little worried the balsa I used (other than some of the kit wood) is almost too lightweight. It may go from looking like a plane to a torpedo just on the test glides. |
John Cooper | 23-Oct-09 16:19 | Don't worry about the wood being too light. If you have managed to cover the model and not have had the wood break or warp too much, you are doing OK. Also, I have found that light models rarely break from flying - the damage comes mostly from handling. |
