    OK, by request, here are the dimensions and some photos of my Climate Matrix Rigger.
    Sorry the pics aren't better. My old Fuji digital is about wore out!

    Hey Danny!

    Very cool stretcher you're building!! The length is great...should be a good runner! Is the turn fin support going to be stretched back too? If so, you may want to think about adding a turnbuckle type support that mounts in between the hull and fin...

    Great job! Keep the pics coming!!

    aha! I'll have to do some measurin'! I didn't build it. Picked it up from somebody else. It's a Climate Matrix. Gonna set it up for 4P. I'm setting up the H&M Xzess Evo II for Spec class with a UL-1 on 4S.

    Those that have renegade riggers will understand this next post.

    I am still waiting for my LHS to stock up on 1/64 ply. I want to duplicate the top depron section skinned with ply before skinning the provided top ply. The reason is to eliminate the depron lip that the hatch sits on. By this added 1/64 ply skin, the lip that the hatch sits on will now have ply to support it. (so it won't fall apart).

    FYI, that is NOT carbon fiber used for the braces.
    It's merely ply, with carbon decals and a flat black painted edge. (flat was the only black I had on hand)

    I wish.

    I'll measure it when I get home.
