Hi,
here's my newest toy. I found it in a german forum (http://www.rconline.net/k-forum/Forum5/HTML/000774.html).

Data:
- 6mm Depron wing
- 3mm Depron elevons and winglets
- 44cm span
- 145g weight
- GWS DX-B drive (7:1)
- Glass prop (4-6 layers of 49g/m^2 glass cloth) taken from an APC 9x6 slow prop as positive mould
- about 110g thrust (!)
- 8 cells GP 280 NiMh
- 2A static current
- Jeti Rex5 receiver
- 2x Graupner C261 servos (8g)
- coloring with watercolors by my 4-year-old son (man, *that* was fun!)
The little guy goes quite fast. If you try to fly it too slowly it just falls out of the sky (but doesn't break due to toughness and light weight). Almost 10min of fun (yes, I love gearboxes, those sources of efficiency).
