Hey guys, this is my first thread. I've been cutting out all the pieces for my balsa baby baron, and it's finally ready to assemble! I built the fuselage today. Normally I just cut as I go, but this time I decided to cut all the pieces first to make the assembly quicker and even more fun! I made a few mods to the basic design. First, I increased the wingspan to 24 inches and made it two pieces, using popsicle sticks for the wing joiners. The reason for putting a two piece wing on such a small plane to start with is a personal challenge I made myself to make it backpack-able. I don't really have any need for a backpack-able plane, but I like to challenge myself in design. I also made a removable rudder to make it easier to transport, which is why there is no rudder on it yet. Here are some pics;
