This isnt an event this year but anyway, balsa's good. Build it nice and light [my team had problems with that last year].

i totally agree :lol: :lol: your sig always cracks me up

i think blg sounds both funner (lol) and less fun than ws
more fun: don't have to bother with prop and such blah
less fun: it doesn't go by itself: a ws plane looks so much cooler if it works right

keep it at the right measurments and don't forget your name. Last year our team forgot their name and went from first place to like 5th. not good!
