Listen I'm getting a little sick of your crap. We are trying something INNOVATIVE, SOMETHING FIRST IS ALL ABOUT. If you look at the pics, where ever there is a joint on the frame it has been epoxied, not with aircraft epoxy yet. But soon we will be applying the SAME stuff that holds MODERN AIRPLANES together.

The reason why we did it out of shop is because we ran out of time on Sat. and we needed both Sunday and Monday for it to cure. Everything else is made by the students in the Norwich HS tech shop. Except for the motors, wheels (even though in 05 we made our own wheels), and other stuff that comes in the KoP.

Yes, everything is designed, fabricated, and tested by our team in our shop.
