All the fuselage parts are already finish, although I haven't figured out about the locking system for connecting each segments. In the meantime I just using packing tape to join them together, I'll cover it on part 4. The total length of the complete fuselage is about 4.5 meter or about 14.7 ft and the weight so far about 3800 gram. Looks like I have lost the weight battle, the final result will be above 4000 gram, maybe with the wing and electronik it will be around 5000 - 6000 gram. But still it will be very light if we look to its wing loading.
