Something I just decided to sit down and crank out this morning. I decided to go with a simple box fuselage and then round the gusseted corners to get the effect which was much simpler than trying to do any kind of sheeting and formers. The stabilizer and top planform/Wing are 6 mm depron and the sides and top are 3 mm depron. I'll do more panel lines and details after I fly it. I didn't want to have a built up rear hump to avoid more tail weight and just went with the decal on the vertical stabilizer to give that effect. I may paint the vertical stabilizer flat black so it's not so obvious in flight. I made the stabilizer kind of mimic the wing shape. I curved the tail down a little further than scale so I could have the motor thrust line just above the wing.
38 in Long 20-in wingspan, fuse is about 4 inches across and three and a quarter inches tall, 4.9 Oz with radio equipment installed just over 6 oz ready to fly.j
