And still more :D

Cut some air vents and shaft hole in the canopy. Unfortunately the canopy came badly dented; I tried to straighten it out a bit with a hot air gun

Horizontal stab glued on

@sanjayrai55 sir,
At this rate i will have no option left but to build this (waiting since 1996).
I will be able to prove, like Lance says, that 'my fuselage is longer than yours'
Alas, what's the use. Can never meet the second condition.
As stated by the venerable rcpilotacro:
'It's not the size that matters, it's what you do with it...'
:thumbsup:

@sanjay sir you rock, this is just great. Looking forward to its Maiden this Sat.... :hatsoff:

Iyer sir, better build soon. If you don't have a fuselage at all, what will you compare with  :rofl:

Since Iyer sir wanted a change in the pilot, I was in a quandary  ??? ???

Then, a bright idea. I drew in a moustache on a pilot figure I had and put that in. Now it looks like Iyer sir is the pilot  :giggle: :giggle:

And if it crashes, the pilot is to blame  >:D

Complete! Maiden planned this weekend  :o

Weight without battery 639 grams
As the CG balanced perfectly with a 2200 mAh, I will use that - 191 grams

Flying weight will be 830 grams. I can live with that!

Will start with a SF 9*47 prop, and take it from there
