It will be really interesting to see if those four tube fins provide the necessary stability for this bird. I'm just a little skeptical of a 1.21 margin, especially with the C6-5, using only those four tubes. It's not you I'm doubting, of course...
This one begs to be tried! I might have to break down and order some contraband...

Thanks Craig, I am glad I have sparked your interest.
Carl, the well known and infamous "Balsa Peddeler" of Semroc, whom we both know well, should be able to get you your 'FIX" if you feel the sudden compulsion to built the Jupiter Express . That is what is so fun about designing with Rocksim Craig, maybe it will fly and maybe not ?? You are most likely right and I should add some fins onto the tube fins for some added assurance.
