Hi Matt,

Very nice model, looks great. Post the video of the first flight please!

Thks for the analysis... I was worried to spray my paint outdoor, by 10°C... Next time I'll try to find another solution.

Thanks John.
In fact first flights will be done without rocket motor, to set up balancing & elevons travels. I also might have problems to get powder engines because I cannot buy it in France... :-(

And another couple of picture of the second color spraying:


And after masking tape removal:


Next step: covering!

A+

Model is covered, it weights 730g (not balanced, without pushrods for elevons):

JohnPearson:
Looks good Matt, 1.6lbs/0.7kg  is a nice weight, should fly lovely in light winds.
