custom

Hi everyone, I'm building an FT Bronco and I was wondering how I could make it more easily transportable. It's basically about breaking down the booms from the wing and the tail (the A-Style for me) from the booms, so I could carry the plane in a more compact case to/from the flying field. I...

So I am fairly New to the R.C Hobby, But I have watched a lot of flight test and season 1 of Maker Hangar by Make. So I know a little bit. I want to make a fairly powerful quadcopter that can lift a GoPro with a Gimble. I want to make it similar to dji in the sense that the extra power gives me...

I have made a quite a few flying machines over the past 3 years but this one is the most custom yet as I have taken apart my 680 sized hex and am converting it into Quad or if needed a co-axial octa. This is going to be used to lift a GHT 3 axis gimbal and a NEX size camera (specifically an...

Hey guys, I am in the market for a new 300 frame and the mxp300 is a possible option, but i really want carbon tube arms for the extra efficiency, strength and it makes turning the motors 10 degrees easier. I have thought about retrofitting either of the Mamba frames but i was wondering if...

The video above is a comparison between our aluminum frame and a G10 counter part. It tests things like strength, weight, and overall durability. The idea came about after we got tired of buying knockoff G10 frames online, each time we crashed hard we pretty much needed a new frame. So I had an...

Recently I've been messing around with some ways I can make fuselages that can be compatible with FT power pods so I can make as many different creations as I want, just with the two that I have from the FT Cruiser. I used the dimensions of the pod to make a CAD drawing of a holster that I can...

My first flight with the ft 3d wasn't a success, I flew about 12 sec before dive bombing a jeep that was traveling 20 mph on the road, I repaired the plame and thought I would mess around with some lights I had sitting around, I powered the lights with a 9v battery and cut the negative wire...

So I am fairly new to the hobby but have a ton of fun building these foam planes. I ordered some push rods and other items from FT for my next build and they showed up in a cardboard tube with a 2" ID. As soon as I saw it I couldn't help but want to make it fly. So here's what happened...
