Back to it, after having been away.
Foam for the outer wings sections has been cut. A similar process will then be followed as for the inner wing sections.

Re: Schleicher ASH31 4m
Wow, I've been able to post something!!!
Here are some more pictures (fingers crossed).
The ASH has been flying for just over a year. Final weight is approx 4kg.
Flys really well both flat field thermalling & slope. No nasty tip-stall, all very gentle and predictable.
Very happy with it!
BTW the seagul is my wifes idea of a joke

Very nice. I have had log in problems fo the last year but seems OK now. Your ash 31 looks fantastic. Have just sold my 7m ash last month plus my 6 m dg 800. I think smaller models is the way to go for me now. Your ash looks a nice size

Re: Schleicher ASH31 4m
hello Roo,
I've never owned, or flown, anything larger than 4m.
I can launch the ASH myself, on slope, but have been doing a bungee launch on flat-field (then run the motor when airbourne) as I'm not confortable to hand-launch with motor running.
I have no intention to go bigger, just because launching will become more 'entertaining' (I assume)!
