Carboard PC-6 Scratchbuild.

I got a bit bored, I had no materials, but had a billion boxes from moving houses, so I had decided to make a plane. I made a pilatus PC-6 sort of thing. I used a bushwhacker wing, and some left over landing gear that I had. I think when I get some foamboard, I should make another of these.

As you can see, the first takeoff didn't go well. I might try and make a new wing, the is slightly bigger.

I think it was the wind. When I set it going in the opposite direction down the runway, it went the opposite way. Both runs turned south east, and the wind was from the west. I am adding a bigger motor, and a free-spinning tailewheel, to help me turn.

Thanks for the advice though.
