Comments:
I wanted to do more aerobatics, so I added a rudder to this plane.
I moved the elevator servo forward from the plan and put the rudder servo next to it.
I also made a hatch for the battery compartment. This should cut the drag from the open compartment.
I like the easy to build and strong stik building method used on this plane. I also like the clear film. It makes for a interesting looking plane.
