13.5" span, balsa construction for three-channel RC. The video build log for this model can be seen at:

Fantastic! It look's like a static build, and it can fly!!!

That is amazing! One doesn't often see RC aircraft that are this accurate in shape and wing configuration.

Excellent - also good to see an RC biplane with full rigging as well.

Really brilliant, I like the way you can see the topside roundal on the underside of the wing.

I could easily have mistaken that for a static model. That it flies is a bonus - Just hope that you do not crash it!
