Hi,

I don't think you save weight by using glass/foam, maybe if you use
the Kevlar/glass combo fabric.

For wings use dacron 2,4 oz and not to much paint.

use a wood or composite prop not aluminum

for the rest of the body, use meat, fat, egg, fish, vegetable, fruit.
stay out of rice, potatoes, pasta, bread (Atkinson method)


He he, thanks,.

I've been poking around th eAircraft Spruce site trying to figure out how
much a bare composite tank is and it loks to be almost exactly the same as
an aluminum one. I might still do it because I don't realy want to build an
aluminum one and the composite loks easy. The prop's a done deal, though,
Fairly large Ham Standard ground adjustable! Very heavy. If I don't get the
performance out of it, I might try a wooden one though if this one doesn't
work out. The fabric and finish sound god though!

thanks
