Hello there!
So this is my latest project. It`s the second plane that i`ve build, where both of mine are scratch build, not from kits.
I can happily say that the first flyes wonderfully, and can only hope that this will fly as nice as that one!
Ofc, credits go to Flitetest and Josh Bixler for the design of this awsome plane.
I enjoyed flying the depron version of the baby blender so much that i decidet to build my own balsa model.
The project is not complete yet, I need to make the control surfaces, motor mount and landing gear... and ofc I have to mount all the electronics in it.
I will update this once it`s complete and I have maiden it.
Just thought i`d post this to get some feedback from you guyz.
For the wings I`ve used the same profile as my last plane because i found it to be very forgiving.
Specs: 4 ch - motor, ailerons, elevator and rudder (i can mod the high wing to accept flaps if it will be needed after maiden flight)
wing span: 600 mm (aprox. 23 inches) (one wing)
wing chord:180 mm (aprox. 7 inches) (one wing)
length: 580mm (aprox. 23 inches)
ALL FEEDBACK IS WELCOMED!
here are some pics from the building process.
UPDATE!!!
Just finished building it, and I thought to post some photos just in case the maiden goes south... will keep you guyz posted!
So, after maiden (if i can say that) the plane needed minor adjustments....so, I`e moved the battery tray forward and changed the prop (10 x 4.7 to 9 x 6). I`ve also recalibrated the travel and speed of the servos, and off I went!
Short but very satisfying flight (even tho it`s still needs some tinkering with it) So far i`m pleased with it.
I`ll put up the first flight (the one that was tail heavy) and the latest one. Hope you like it, Enjoy!
