I built one of those as per xjet on youtube. I set mine up for control line. He would not give measurments and other inportant info. He showed the model being built with hot glue, and then never finished the third build video. I took mine to the field and started it, got a needle on it. At that point the hot glue let go and the engine, mount and all flew out and struck my son.
Even on some other coroplast builds I havent seen good instructions on glueing yet. I have some material and would like to do some building, but not untill I knjow how to properly glue it.

Thanks for reply
Yes, the hot glue it´s not secure for engine stand , it´s necessary fit add a hard wood table with some screws for example, but for the rest of airplane is good glue.
In the first flights the airplane it´s not tuned, incedence was zero degrees, only in the last fligth all are ok.
Philip sousa march is good march for the design victory.

That's a beautiful flying spot you have there. Is that in Spain?

Of course, you realize that since you didn't do a build thread, you are duty-bound to post your working drawings....
