Some pictures here of my latest project a 3.8 metre electric soarer.
Built for something to do in the winter months and as a challenge to the moulded stuff  |

Hello - For a minute i thought it said 8 metre, anyway looking good and looking forward to see it finished, have you got a name for it yet ? I did have a few names but selected "Watts New" as it is somewhat similar to the Watts Up of mine, but more curvaceous .

A few more pics. The wings have been glassed underneath, still have to do the top of the wings before cutting out the flaps & ailerons. Hatch now fitted and shaped. The cu touts in the tips are for the movable ends to the ailerons, in the tiplets

Have now completed the airframe, quite pleased as to how it has turned out. Need to fit the wing servos in and go fly. Great when you see it in the flesh from just a blank sheet of paper.   |

Evening Brian - Looks very nice, and have to agree it's very pleasing when you can see the finished model |
