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




Decided to build this one. I've always admired the 177 more than it's more famous cousin, the Skylane

This is from my favourite designer, Matsumoto. 53"span, 1.5~1.7 Kg, will be using an ASP 25 on it

Plans on Outerzone & Aerofred

Thanks so much Dominic. Corro is versatile, yes. Just difficult to get curved surfaces accurately

Superficially complete, but... the CG was off.

Very nose heavy!

Rather than add a lot of weight on the tail, first I'm going to move the servos (currently below the wing, near the CG) near the tail

@sanjayrai55,
What I admire is that if one looks closely at your pics, one can find at least one great idea.
Your field bench itself is wonderful, but the thing to be admired is the peg into the ground at the rear, to prevent the table from toppling at full throttle!
Learnt from experience, I’m sure...

I made that peg only yesterday! Earlier just hefted a big stone there
