Indoor RC was created by Quorneng
Not wishing to interrupt Sceptics Super Cub build thread I was intrigued by the requirements for indoor RC.
Andy gives the maximum weight as 200g and a maximum wing loading of 15 g/ sq dm.
So how close to these figures does my lightest scale plane get?
181.4g and 13.4 g / sq dm and its an EDF.
The span is 795 mm.(30.3")
It certainly does not have 'competition' levels of detail - no retracts, in fact no undercarriage
, but then it is flown outdoors over grass. 
Hmmm. I wonder!

The real test would be to add retracts and still keep below 200g! 
A single micro servo working all three legs maybe.

May get away with that on a nice flat indoor surface. Not sure how it would cope outdoors. A good and interesting engineering challenge.
