Hi, thought I'd just share the build process, comments (positive and constructive criticism both ok) welcome.
I started by using the free download Inkscape to convert the FT plans to 140 % PDF.
I felt that 140 was the perfect size for a few reasons. It gives it about exactly 1m wingspan which is just small enough to fly on a grass oval/large park, and not freak people out, and also land on grass without roughing up the landing gear. The other reason is that I am building with 6mm foamboard from Spotlight (probably the Australian version of your cheap craft warehouse) and so the slots etc per the plan didn't have to change, everything still fits per plan.
I've attached them.
Cheers
