That's really beautiful.  I'd never have thought to make one out of plywood because I'd have thought it would be too heavy.  How much does it weigh when it's flight ready?

Thanks! 1240g w/3s 3300, 11 minutes cruising. Mid-deck is basswood, birch ply makes up the rest. Learned about it from MrHeli and Terrier from OP.

Not much action over here in woody land, thought I'd post a few pics of some things I've been working on, see if we can breathe some life back in to this thread 😃

Nice work. Love the smaller frame - looks like it would have a lot of power. I have one similar to that and it is an awesome little FPV rocket.

 To date I've only flown 5" crap props, will be running 6" soon, when I finish breaking all the 5's😏 
AUW with 1300 4s is 599 grams, a bit porky by today's racing standards I guess, but it's pretty tough and only one piece.

How about you, anything new?
