    Yeah, she is 37 feet long with a 37 foot span, more or less. I think the pilot model I have isnt to scale... @Jacobdaniel

    I do find it difficult to judge how much wing to give a model from time to time. You see, I build the whole thing out of fuselage blocks then add scaled wing sections underneath afterwards. There is then no relation between wingspan and lifting surface. @Aeromen

    Lovely job! Flies nicely and landings a doddle - can be done with trim input alone. Is there a militarised version following? COIN/anti drug smuggling ops variant is what lept to my mind, good stuff!

    Thanks! So much easier than assembling tiny little instruments out of miniature psrts on a 6 inch screen. @Treadmill103
