Greg,
If you want to go with a composite bagged plane versus a moldie, I would
highly recommend the SchpotDorker Lite that Sal at NSP sales. The quality
is as good as any of the moldies in it's price range and it builds very
light. I built the one that Jim Bacus has in his quiver and it came in
around 55oz ready to fly. It has a standard cruciform tail which is good
for landing accuracy, plenty of size for being able to be seen far away and
it appears to be very strong for as light as it is. I know Jim really loves
his. Jim flys a lot of the same contests is sounds like you will be flying
at so I know it will work for your area. I myself am a moldie kind of guy
and am very partial to the planes from Jaro Muller, i.e. the Escape, Ellipse
4, the Esprit, etc. For your choice of staying with bagged wings I know you
would not be disappointed with the SchpotDorker Lite.
See Ya,
Pat McCleave
Wichita, KS
