My MK.III Depron Scratch Build

My 3rd scratch build 

This Build is a simpler build than my first two, they both ended badly.

The whole plane is made from De-pron foam

I know the weight balance is going to be tricky 

 Any thoughts and suggestions

This is the plane i'm yet to glue on the motor 

I'm using KFm2 airfoil with a sanded leading edge. I wanted a big tail so my wish was my command and yes it has Elevons.

Rear View. Large-ish Control Surfaces simple top mounted electro-gubens

And on the Second Day

 Today MK.3 grow an extra tail and lost elevons in favor of ailerons and an elevator. the motor was also attached today.

The elevator is attached to the back of the wing plus i added a little wing under the tails, this is for strenght and too see what happens.

I put all the electronics on top of the wing, keeps them nice and cool

The dimentions are as follows

Wingspan 800mm

Cord 200mm

Length ~550mm

Weight <800grams

3cell li-po 2200mA

2200Kv motor

6X4 Prop
