I am going to do one some time!.....After my repairs from the 3536......
i am going to build another … hopefully soon. i am not one to quit or get discouraged, but man i dont wanna build another right now 😂

i have been thinking about doing a “slammed” flerken, so on a single deck inside, make it less tall, try to make a crazy fast version.

My recommendation is make the model, make sure it flies good and then put the big boy on.

was just thinking here…

do we have to build it?
are we limited to one?

my thought was try this with a purchased frame and built frame.

my hope is have the time to create a thread this evening for myself…i just finished another frame, tribute to f106 again…but this time i went “correct” scale for length to wing ratio, vertical stabilizer correct to ratio….i really hope it flies…cause my plan is put a 2838 3800kv in it… 😳

I would like to join but the gps bike tracer I bought was not accurate. and I'm super busy these days.
i havent test the one i purchased yet…but i have EXTREME speculation over the speeds reported here.

100 mph is 150 feet per second roughly, thats a football field in 2 seconds. there is not a single plane video in this forum that i have seen that is doing a football field per second….

there might be some doing it…i have not seen it yet.
