    Looking good!

    I built a similar plane a while ago and I'd recommend that you get your vertical surfaces big enough. I had to put an extra fin on the plane to make it fly well. Without the extra fin it could become very unstable during certain manouvers.
    My build log is here: viewtopic.php?f=59&t=2203&start=0

    I built this as a "chuck glider" for my son. I added a little weight to the front to get the balance right but it still will now flight correctly. Seems there is not enough vertical serface behind the CG. It wants to swap ends. I added a large vertical stab and now it flies pretty smooth.
