Nope.

It'll be heavier than designed.  It has 6" foam rather than 4", and it
has a VW Jetta rather than an EA81.  The rudders could stand to go on
a diet too, I used the wrong glass on them.  It has 2 layers of 9 oz
rather than 3 oz like I was thinking.  For some reason that particular
weave soaks up a whole lot of epoxy too, just picking up a rudder it
seems way too heavy.

I don't think I got too carried away with the rest of the craft
though.

The engine weighs about 80 lbs heavy, the mount is a little longer so
that adds a couple pounds too.  I'll have a muffler AND a catalytic on
it, so that'll add too.
