This project has now completed its test flights. Original flights were carried out with the model in grey primer as it was a very unknown project and the team were not sure how well it would fly. Once the initial problems with the CG were sorted out the model flew extremely well and it was clear the model was a winner. Encouraged by the success of the test flights the model has now been finished and painted in scale colours
