Mate that looks awesome!!!
Where do you get the foam from? I might look at making another slow stick with a flat wing.
lets see if I can get your pix to show up?

Cheers fellas.
Well it all gone to shit,I didnt get to rive the delivery ute this week so Im almost out of epoxt,I also needed CF rods and couple of diffrint size pianp wire.
Will have to spend tonight getting to Wildfly back in the air.
That sheet of depron cost $20 from ,well I was told it was called the foam factory,but when I got there it was called somthing else,its on Norma rd in Myaree.just off Leach Hwy.
the las bit I got was from Clark rubber in Joondelup and I think it was over $30 a sheet for 6mm.It also comes in 3mm,think it was half the price.
Mate I dont recon the stick will fly very nice with a flat wing,and a wing that large would need CF rods in them if you built them flat,BUT with a few well placed razor blade slices and some epoxy you would soon have an under cambered wing like it has now and probly not need the CF.
