Thanks Joe. Here's an update. It Flies!!! . Need only a few cliks of right trim and up trim to keep her flying straight. It flies great, the best glider I have ever flown. Flew her on Wednesday eveing from Lacken. Here's a picture of her in flight. I also have a flim of her (about 40sec) but I'm not sure how to upload it to the wedsite, also the file is to big (about 70mb) not sure how to sompres it with out losing to much detail.

Almost there. The model is fully covered now. Just have to glue on the V-tail (hopefully straight   ), install the radio gear and then balance it. Then hopefully it will be ready to fly.

I'll try that thanks. I don't have much to fill anyway so weight wise it should be OK.

No, the radio gear is not fitted yet. For filler I was going to use wood glue mixed with balsa dust because i'm going to cover the wings in transparent film and the wood glue mixed with balsa dust will hopefully be the same colour as the balsa and not show up through the film. I think Polyfilla is white, but i may be wrong. Only problem is that i think wood glue mixed with balsa dust is not that easy to sand.

Here are those picture. All the major parts of the glider are complet. All that is left is to fill some spots on the glider where I, err.... missed with the balsa plane   . Then it will be ready for covering. The V-tail is just taped on in these pictures. It will be glued on after covering. Then of course after covering I'll put the radio gear in and she's ready.
