Taking shape.
First pictures of the new plane. Some specs. 553 sq. in., 52" span. I'm revising the weight guess upward to 40 to 45 ounces. Still on the light side. OS .46LA for power. The tail volumn co efficient is .417 so I'm hoping for a good flyer. A 4 ounce fuel tank from Brodak that is the same as the one recommended for the Vector ARF. A thick airfoil and a slightly large fuselage should equal drag and slower speed but with plenty of power to pull it through the pattern. I went with the colors of the PT-19 as I had those on hand. And I'm no good at paint scheme design. I'll paint the blue after wall papering the fuselage.
