"Wally Slow Fly" (my daughter named him) is inspired by Laines Planes "Norman" (check that out here http://lainesplanes.com/) and community member "sundown57".
So I made some plans for a 58" wingspan slow flyer with mega big wheels and a goofy little grin with googly eyes. What a relaxing blast to fly! I had a bit of a breeze and had this thing literally stopped in mid air! Ran two 3300 4S and two 3000 3S through it. I liked the 4S better. Even did three loops! (Unintentional hee hee!) The wheels would keep spinning in the air. It was hilarious!

Pro Tip: My Wally is sporting "Wally Wheels" basically two 20" in circumference Bushwacker type foam wheels covered in black packing tape. This adds at least 4.4 oz of weight in front of the CG not including the wheel collars and axel. If you are not doing Wally Wheels, don't forget to compensate the weight accordingly. You can give your Wally more nose weight by moving the powerpod forward by moving the four tab slots on the fuse forward. I may make various positions for these on future plans.

Addendum:
Wally Wheels are 2.2 oz each when covered with packing tape. Not including axles or any type of wheel collars.
