Why did you lay two 5mm Depron slices over each other?
On my opinion ot would be better if you would use one 5mm depron and strengthen it with carbon rods. The will give you the stability you need.

I´m very interested in how its gonna fly, so don´t forget to upload your maiden !

Cool. Mind sharing overall length, wingspan and weight?
Thanks!

I didnt lay 2 depron slices over one another. The only time I paired them up was to give the tail a bit more rigidity, and the cockpit section as they're usually the pieces to snap in an inverted landing - not that it ever happens

26" wingspan, not sure of length - will check

Good job! It flies pretty well despite the scale looks!

 

[ananas1301]

Was that your hand touching the prop when you launched it? It made a weird nose there in the video But you don´t seem to feel any pain with the amounts of adrenalin in the video. hahaha

Anyway, looks pretty good for your first scratchbuild!
