Finally getting round to assembling this thing. It's been years and years since I did one of these and the skill sets are now sadly lacking but I'm using this kit to get back in the swing of things and go from there. I was originally going to power it and install a remote control but since it's a bit bodged I'm going to stick with the original rubber band powered design and let Barnaby do with it what he will. My next one which I will power is going to be a Corsair.
The only change to the design on this will be I'll use balsa with thinned layers of dope as the skin to add rigidity (and hide my mistakes) so Barnaby can handle it without worrying about breaking the paper skin. It won't glide as well obviously but he doesn't care.
