With the numerous flying sites we have in Cape Town for all year round sloping, I could not resist to also build a slope version.

Unlike finding a suitable motor for the size plane, I enlarged the plans to suit a motor I already had. The end product therefore had a wingspan of 1000mm.

Regarding the Zero, I did stick to the designed size and as with all your other designs, it flies like a dream.
