Looks good, I think your okay on weight for normal flying. 1/2 A Stunters were about 12 oz but larger wings. Love it.

Started sanding the sides and the balsa started peeling up in big chunks. Iv'e never ever seen that happen befor. Had to stop and before I flew it into a brick wall . Mad

Very soft balsa can be peel in very thin strands. Dope a little more, I think.
