    Default It's made of wood

    Here's some of my other work, sure the wood is balsa and mainly 1/8 or 1/16 and it is covered by a heatshrink fabric, but it's still wood and totally scratch build by yours truly. Oh and it flies too with electric power.

    Default Its made of wood

    It may be made of wood but it is certainly not a log.
    Congratulations...... What a pride and joy.
    It would be just nice to sit in, let alone fly it.
