    Wings are glued and ready to cut the spar notch in it. Just had to dry assemble it all to get and full idea of it.

    Paint is complete and got the spar glued into the elevator. Maybe I will have an assembled airframe by the end of the week.

    I can share the plans if you would like. Very simple plane to cut out and build. The two in my pic are the first of their kind. Only just drew the plans up for them two weeks ago.

    Well the second kit is headed to a buddy in KY who I know can give me good feed back on how it flys. I can share the plans though. And what questions do you have on the glitter JR. I have built six of them.

    Cut out a couple foamie glitters this morning. I think @Snoopy1 needs to cut one as well to go with his new 20cc glitter. Now to decide on paint and get one together. Looks like it should build out to a little over 8 ounces so a little heavier than I was hoping but should still fly just fine

    Looks good but it’s missing a can-O-pee. Lol. And I vote backyard maiden.

    That would be in his settings somewhere as I'm pretty sure I remember the feature being there to turn off conversations.

    Clear water bottle style tanks are the way to go. I promise you will fall in Love once you try one.

    Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”

    Yes laminate them together. You can go 3/4" fuse if you want but 5/8" will be plenty strong. Yes Vertical fin should be 3/8" if built per the plans. Snoopy did his slightly different as he ended up air foiling the control surfaces, but doing it per plans the way I would is build the fuse as one...

    Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”

    I will find a picture of it. I think he had a DLE20 on it. Said power was good but he had it way tail heavy and stuffed it in on the maiden before he could really get a feel for how it flew. Don't think he has had time since to repair it.

    Looks great. “Glitter 2” technically. Matt P built one back in August over on Probro site. Didn’t post much about it though.

    If your doing any 3D modelings it’s totally worth it. Only thing I don’t like and I turned off was having the zoom on it as well. I much prefer having the zoom remain on the scroll wheel of the regular mouse.

    Discussion The I’m Going/Went Flying Thread

    Apparently clipping the corner of a shed is the limit at which I finally broke a prop adapter. Time to see if my design skills are up to the task of designing a 3D printing a replacement.
