This should make Jim happy. I've been looking at a bipe for the contest. But when I scaled the wing, even up to 50sq.in., the fuse is still to short. The wing can be shorter on the bipe, does the fuse stay 12"? I'm a little worried about just changing the moment or scaling the wing too big by making the whole plane bigger. What do you think Jim?

The wing and fuselage don't need to be in exact proportion, it's fun scale or stand off scale. How will it look if you stretch the fuse through the tail, or scale up the fuse and shorten the wings?

Very nice paved circles..... Also several grass ones. It's nice to be able to stick a landing on concrete once and a while as it never happens in grass.

I'll try stretching the fuse first.
