ideas

 So I looked at the calendar this morning and sorta said "Oh frik! Flitefest is only a couple of months. I better step on it, planning wise!" Apparently, way too late. Any ideas on what to do, given that there was no camping available, only "wait list" which didn't seem encouraging when one...

I'm currently wanting to design a Master Series style plane, and I need some ideas as far as which one to design. Any suggestions Welcome!

So I have all these electronics, but I don't know what to put them into. I listed possible answers of what planes I could build below, but if you have any other ideas let me know. Here are exemples of a possible answers... 'Viggen V2 with 70mm EDF' or 'Tiny tutor with F pack and mini floats'...

Going to run this poll for a few days, and see where the interest is. I've got a couple electronics setups that are free to build around, and have been having a bit of an uninspired spell. I may build yet another plane before these results are closed out to keep busy, but I will take them into...

Hi Guys, So i am planning on building a long-range Mapping and Monitoring Airplane, I need a stable but fast airplane (up to 100 km/h), Can you guys give me some recommendations like wing span, airfoil type, Type of Plane, etc? :confused::confused:

I recently bought and mastered an Inductrix FPV pro and bought a set of Fatshark dominator HDs and a DXe transmitter with it. I am now looking into an actual race drone. Unfortunately, I am not in a position right now to do any soldering or build my own drone right now. Therefore, I'm looking...

I've noticed Flitetest is very much a modern RC company who loves to use today's modern technology to make the hobby available to every day joes. I'm suprised there isn't a good all-in-one app out to help with things like flight times, forums, groups, suggestions, and store. Does anybody think...

Hey all, new FT forums member here. No RC plane experience, but I have a toy-grade heli and a pair of Nano QX Multicopters I'm learning to fly, and I have loved RC cars and other surface transit stuff all my life. I'm probably going to get a plane when the weather gets a little nicer, and I'm...

I have been watching a ton of flite test in the past 3 weeks... and I've been inspired by david and the gang. Before starting, I wanted to get an idea of size/scale so i broke out Photoshop & SkechUp and started playing. I didn't know where to start SOooo I copied the RotorBones pdf designs...

I am planning on building a tricopter this summer and when researching i saw someone mounted (not a Y6) the front 2 motors on the bottom. This got me wondering why some one would do that? After much searching, somethings I found, read that Pros: noticeably (roughly 5%) longer flight times...

So about a month ago, I ran into a ryobi weed eater that was being tossed. Being fascinated with anything mechanical, I snatched the thing right up and got her running great again. Now that I have this massive engine, what plane could I put it on? I'm looking to scratch build one out of the...

This is where we can share each others ideas on different ways to combat other that total annihilation and ribbons(boring).And ways for choppers to combat, lol i used combat my Robin22 against a R/C car that was great fun but there must be loads more ways. Please reply.
