This question is open to anyone with a 25% ASW22.
What is the empty fuselage weight, please?
If it's not empty, can you advise the contents for comparative purposes, please?

Hi David. The pat Teakle 6m span fuz is 1121 grams with nothing installed.
Hope this helps.

Evening chaps. Today I finished all spar work,(I rigged the beast in the back courtyard, this thing is big ! )I hope to get all the core sections fixed in place this week, then skinning will commence. Pictures to follow. Before I get the calculator out, does anyone know the correct wheel size?
Have a fab Easter folks.

Hi Folks, I finally got to rig the foam panels loosely. Had to do it outside as this ship is a monster!

Hi Dave, great model, they look impressive on the ground or in the air, some footage showing a ASW22 one of our members built here. A Teakle fuselage wasn't available at the time so he made his own plug. The video link below starts from when it appears.
He made a BL version, so 6.6m span, (ignore the 6.7 in the video). He did make a very strong wing based on his previous F3B model making experience, it still flexes. I note the bendy/stiff discussion earlier.
