Delfer version 3

This is a new version of my previous scratch built the Delfer. The overall wing area is smaller and gives it a nice quicker reaction with the ailerons. I wanted to build a plane that was simple to build for a beginner like my self and that was small enough to fly in a small school play ground. This version has a 7.5 prop but I think it needs to be changed to get more bite. I t currently flys real nice and slow if needed. Loops are a bit of a challange as it needs more prop. It only took me about four hours to build from printing plans to flight ready. The video is the maiden. The plane is a little touchy on aileron rolls as it was on high throws unknown to me at the time  .

Here are the plans  all laid out and taped ready for transfer
