Sweet!
Did you make the designs yourself or did you follow a tutorial? And what motor will you be using?

Ive never flown a 3 channel plane, but do you usually get a rudder control? If you dont its pretty simple, just dont use it!

If not get a sim, will save you a lot of time. I find it easy to take off, but cant land to save my life!

LOL on the rudder....

I had a GP Corsair that I was flying at Nad Al Sheba, the rudder fell off in mid-flight and had absolutely ZERO effect on the flying chartacteristics....having said that, there was no wind so landing was easy..but would have been different if I tried to land in a cross-wind, or take-off without a rudder.

I hear you on learning though...a half-decent trainer should be stable enough not to use a rudder in normal conditions....i.e landing/taking off into the wind..

Or a foamie! Get yourself a cheap foam plane...If you crash, everything can be taped back together, unless you damage the electrics....

Great job Crom!

I hope I get to crash.. I mean to fly it when it's done..

Crom, this might be a stupid question, but how'd you print it out so big? Some of your cut outs clearly aren't A4 blum3


Well, if you notice, there are tapes on the edges of the papers used..
Besides, there are paper sizes bigger than A4.. and of course printers that can print on them too.. wink

Yeah...Stared at the pictures for a while and got it. So I deleted the post, lol. Thanks though.

I'm interested in making models and hanging them in my bedroom...Not flying them, I know that's not possible on a student budget like mine...Building them is extremely cheap, and I'm only about 40% done with my mini-plane, and it's SOOO MUCH FUN!


Only trouble is...I'm having trouble finding free models...

HELP? I've only found 2 or 3 on the sites above.

Check RCPowers forums. Most people post the plans they've built. I got mine from there.
