This is a truly impressive piece of work. Did you carve it out by hand?

What kind of electronics are you planning to add.

Looking forward to reading an update.

This is made by foamboard, and gonna get complete RC setup. Brushless motor w/1600g thrust came yesterday. (thats gonna be approx 1.2 thrust : 1 weight )

(here is picture of the start on internals.

Thank you for the update.
Looking forward to seeing how it flies.

I am going to wait for a 3d printable version, which should not be too long now.

The wing here, i made for use on a Piper Jet, also a plane just become only as a few prototypes. The way i build it, where the Piper is a low-wing plane, and the Celera mid-wing, the "centerpart" of belly (where its no formers at last picture) is possible remove by a few screws, and interchange the wing between the two planes. That have given not fully correct wing at the celera model, but close. And it helps easyer by transporting, with the approx. 1400mm wide wing.

Hello Leaded50,

You have great foam building skills and both the Piper Jet and the Celera 500 look awesome. Did you get to the flight testing stage? Did you do a build log anywhere on the web?

Thanks
Bill
