Hi , good work .... How's the fit ? It seems you've used no filler at all .

Hi Julian. The fit is generally quite good. I've used some filler in the nose tip and where the air intakes meet the fuselage, but nothing to extreme.
Cheers

Superaccurate work on this microscopic bird so far ! What was the purpose of this particular x project ?

Thanks Hanno! The X-29 was built to evaluate the potential of forward swept wing configuration. I remember other innovations were also included in the project (fly-by-wire, 3 part control surface with the cannard, wing and flaps right next to the exhaust nozzle and other that I do not remember).

Cheers
