Western General Meteor

I need the Saito 325 R5 for another project so it's an airframe only sale. Not many people know what a WG Meteor looks like, so here is a YouTube link of this model. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlIX4OpTBYg
All of the litho decking is easily removable so a buyer can add his servo's etc. without too much trouble.
Although all servo's have been removed the linkages remain together with the servo mounts.
Due to the nose construction I would think most engines around 50cc would fit readily'
It has a 96" span with both panels quickly detachable leaving the centre section. With an engine fitted it's around 72" long. 24" from ground to top of centre section. As I recall weight with the Saito was 21lb so with a more usual engine fitted 2lbs could be saved easily. Covering is silver Oratex, wheels Dubro pneumatic. Undercarriage is sprung using O rings, plenty of spare ones included. The original plans are included too so no GofG guessing. Never crashed so no repairs have been required.
Asking £200 and due to the size it would have to be collected. Remember in spite of the video this is only the bare airframe for sale.
