    Looking good Randy. I like the fins. The color scheme should be easy to see it the air too.

    Randy that looks great! I love the micro-lite
    Are these fins from two pieces of balsa edge glued? Looks like the top portion of the fins have been added?
    Nice job

    Very cool, I was just wondering
    I was talking to a guy the other day that told me he edge glues wood like this all the time and that the joined seam is actually stronger than the wood itself!
    Thanks Randy
    I bet this thing moves!

    mark, the model flies great...the vertical stabs work wonderful and are very lite...its not real fast, as i went with all lightweight components..i would say its 70 ish. but the lightness makes it a ball to fly. randy.
