Ok, I knew it before but did not take care of:
the varnish/dope (Spannlack) is so strong, it's bending the last spare of the rudder ... [humm]

No chance to leave it like it is:

It needs more struts to enforce:

At least this correction is "invisible" and the spare is straight again

Today I've finalized the Jaguár with 705g lift-off weight Very Happy

Here some more details:

Now I'm waiting for a good chance for the very first flight (with my knees shaking Embarassed

)

Hi Oliver,

Nice "homework". Good luck for first fly. Double jigger makes automatic 20% exponential for flight Cool

Greetings Erix

Meanwhile I've made a box for easy and safe transportation.
Have a look...

First the needed space for the Jaguár theoratically:

Some more wood ... and later on "a box":

My wonderful wife Karin painted the box to be not that "white".
Meanwhile the interior found its final situation more an more:

This should be mentioned ...
the gilder can be setup up in the box safely without having the wind "grapping".
Afterward you just take it out and fly Very Happy

I will come back with the maiden flight.

So long,
Oliver.

Bonjour,

This wonderful plane took off in the air just great. First by throwing out of the hand, later on with high start.
Nothing irregular happend, just an easy ride with the wind Very Happy
