2025 Flite Test Forum Challenge: WWII Design & Build

Mr Man

Mr SPEED!
lower your prop size maybe, also it may be that its top heavy, which can make it roll easily. How much dihedral does it have? Maybe try to mix in some aileron countering the throttle, like 5%, that might fix it. Are you gonna get a vid of it flying?
Hmm, you maybe right about the top heavy thing. Its got the same amount of dihedral as all of the FT swappables. And yes, I hope to get vid!!

with it not having a h stab, for some reason I have found canards dont really help, it might also make it more sensitive to rolling, maybe give it a degree or two more dihedral. Good luck, One Day left! (Atleast for my time zone)

Hey Guys,

I know i'm a little late on this but it looks like the winner ofthe challenge is @FlyerInStyle as he was the only participant to post both plans and a video of his creation flying.

I was really happy with the ideas generated by this contest, and would love to see the J7W flying that @Mr Man was working on.

My own DO 335 did fly successfully and i should have posted it but I never went back and posted plans.

Thank you all for your participation!

Thanks! Did you ever post a video of your Do335 flying?, also, is there any chance the laser cutting prize would still be available?
