hala all here got my hands on flying after along time was a bit scared to fly again with out practice, so decided that i needed to buld  a simple  airplane and keep ready, so when every i take a break from flying and get back after along time this plane would help me get back on my flying skills which are not that great .... so build "THE WHITE RAT"  it gets its name from the hangar rat a rubber powered airplane as it looks similar

THE WHITE RAT CONSISTS OF
3channels
wing span- 24inch
auw -30 to 35grams
plans - dont have sorry but could measure and give if one needs
electronics - had a broken ar6410 rx which the rudder servo on board had  broken so attached anothe linear servo as rudder....so this  along with the champ motor had a spare and a 150mah 1s
