Good morning all,
I just recently bought a used UMX Aero Commander that needed extensive repairs. I swapped the fuse, tail, and all electronics into a new one using reference pictures. Bound to my transmitter and everything worked perfectly. On the maiden (for me at least) it flew great until I...
Hello!
I recently bought, build and maidened a FT Simple Cub with FPV - my first plane ever. i was a little bit over-confident and went straight ahead to adding an Ardupilot capable autopilot - the Matek H743 Wing V2 - after six flights. I also managed to maiden these mods yesterday, but it was...
Hey folks!
As I have promised a while ago, when I made a video (linked below) with the Phat Slug, here are the complete plans and detailed (almost 30 pages!) instructions:

Even if you are not interested in the ugly plane itself, I strongly recommend...
Hi folks! If I missed the obvious location for help requests, please point me in the right direction.
I am having difficulty with my first twin engine plane. I have successfully flown the Explorer, Bushwhacker, and Versa. I am getting the Sea Duck ready and having difficulty with the throttle...

The Heinkel He-219 Uhu ("Eagle-Owl") was a night fighter that served with the German Luftwaffe in the later stages of World War II. A relatively sophisticated design, the He 219 possessed a variety of innovations, including...
Went with a different approach with my original F-117 design. I used a larger scale and put a second motor on it for 3-4” push props. I went with elevons similar to the Flitetest F-22 instead of standard aileron elevator setup like my original. I am still tinkering with my old design but this...
Hi pilots,
I’m building my 1st twin engine, thrust vectoring jet 😍
do I need to programme mix my radio for the 2 engines or can I run the 2 BEC’s off a Y lead
Thanks
There is a post for future FT Plan Ideas and there was some discussion on the P-38 and I decided to jump in and do a design from scratch and it ended up being a bit more than what the original goal was. Thoughts, opinions, ideas are welcome while I finalize the design.
Here is the result of a...
So my first introduction to RC airplanes many, many years ago was the so called "Thunderjet" by Silverlit. (Those not familiar, most silverlit airplanes are two channel, twin engined, thurst vectoring toys with brushed motors) It provided me many hours of fun, and to my surprise, it even flew...
This is a motor mount & pod that I made for my highly modified FT Super Bee, because I wanted a stronger motor mount for my application, but it can be used anywhere similar motor mounts are found on FT planes.
If using on the FT Super Bee, you will need to cut two additional slots in the...
I have just about finished building the FT Guinea Pig, which will be my first twin engine airplane. I am currently connecting all of the electronics, and was hoping somebody could line me out a little on whether or not I'm doing things correctly.
As I currently have things hooked up, I have...
