Lovely Fred, but a little difficult to see at times :?:

Wow!, I think that’s pretty impressive.  :clap:

Looks like a lot of hard work, but I wonder if one could be made in foam?

Do you think it would fly very well on the slope Fred? :D

It could be done in foam Keith, but you'd probably need to glass it with carbon cloth to get the necessary strength.


Would go very well on the slope in light winds and probably stronger stufff too, as newer dlg's tend to have very thin airfoils and would penetrate well.
