@liakhat,
Looks good so far.
Two questions:
1. Are you going to mount the top wing directly on the fuselage? For bipes distance between wings is usually set equal to one chord or more.
2. What's the weight so far (bare airframe)?
Best wishes.

Under 100gms? Well done!
Use a smaller motor and a smaller lipo to reduce weight and improve flight performance significantly.
You dont really need that 2826. It can easily fly a 600gm plane.
Best of luck.

Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth



Nice build

Mr. K K Iyer has given you some suggestions already for power setup. Tried that?
