Didn't make it down to the field this weekend. Hope everyone had fun. Did some work on my Glider though. Paint job is
almost done - just the underside of the wings to do and some touch up work to fix overspray etc.
Not going to be too fussy - I'm sure it's going to be scratched and banged up. Looks pretty good with it's Starburst
finish though. It's going to be embarassing if it looks like an Aerobatic Stunt Jet but then flys like a Dog. I'll find out
soon enough - hope to maiden it next weekend (with the help of Darren or Kieren). Still have to sort out it's balance - still tail heavy. Not keen to add more weight as it tips the scales at 1500g. Hopefully the 62in wingspan and SK35-36 910Kv motor will haul it about.
