I've started this plane and have Tip panels complete and one center panel underway. I obtained a Fiberglass fuselage from a guy in Mo.

Stan made this fuselage with a E205 airfoil (not the one on the original MA plan) in the root section fairing at the fuselage. So, that required some minor design changes to the wing joiner section. Nothing major, just a change from the steel blade setup to steel rods. (2). It will have flaps - spoilers - rudder - elevator. 166" span.

I had & flew one some 20 yrs. agoback at the SOAR sod farms outside Chicago.

Just an update on the Pegasus progress. All wing panels are complete. Started mounting the Flap and spoiler servos in the wing. Decided to go that route instead of the wire an cables shown on the plans. When I get a chance, I'll post some photos of it at this stage of construction. Overall weight of the wing at this point (no servos) is 3lbs. 4oz.
