This is 1200mm span with a stick fuselage ..

The wing has a Jedelsky airfoil, with the leading 30% cord made of 5mm balsa and the rest 70% cord made of 5mm depron. These two are spliced together and further stiffened with ribs. The ribs are also designed to induce a washout from root to tip.. (the pic below). The planform design near the tips also helps in reducing the camber near the tips.... All this is prevent tip stalling... (and it does not tip stall.. just mushes) .
It also has ailerons.
There is a CF spar glued to the balsa. The Root rib is much thicker and reinforced. It gives the dihedral and also acts as the mounting. ...
The tailplane planform is also designed to handle high AoA without stalling. The tailplane is made of 10 x 5mm balsa frame and 5mm depron. Have a look at the pic below, this method adds a lot of stiffness without wt or requiring CF.  It has tape hinges.

2212 980kv motor 11x4.5 prop
30A ESC
4 x 9gm servos (2xailerons, elevator and rudder)
3S 2200mah bty

AUW : 765gms... wing loading : -  26 g/sq dm : 8.45 oz/sq ft.. wing cubic loading :- 4.73

CG 7mm from LE at root

The plane flies beautifully, slow and very stable...    With its long tail arm loops are tight even at low speeds, and effective hammerheads/ stall turns.. Ailerons makes it agile in rolls

Attaching the plan .. happy flying
