This model was built from Gus Morphis plans. Instead of a built up balsa wing I chose to use a foam wing which I cut using templates and a manual bow. This is a huge airplane with a 120 wing span. All up weight cam in at 55 pounds. The wings center section was 6 thick. The 8 spinner was molded out of fiberglass. A 8.2 cubic inch motor was used to power this model. Unfortunately on the first real flight of the model a to far rearward CG and to much elevator control cause the model to end its life prematurely.
