Fillets and first weigh in.

I taped off the fillet areas and mixed up a batch of Super-Fil. I had enough to do the wing and stab but the stab wasn't installed so I just did the wing.  After a few hours I set the plane on the glass table and leveled it and installed the stab. By then the wing fillets were firming up so I mixed another batch and slopped it on the stab.
  Out of curiosity more than anything I got out the scale and weighed all the components of the plane plus the motor and battery stuff. 55 ounces without covering and paint. That will probably ad another 4 ounces total.
