Anybody else scratch building tonight?

Discoveries are made by NOT following the directions.

I don’t know but I’ll cut it for free all and ship it to you like a kit. All you would have to pay for is the shipping which should not be able to that much.

thanks.

Been a while, but I finally got this girl up in the air. Wings are a bit under-engineered and flex slightly more than I feel comfortable with but I've done moderate acro with them and they haven't broken yet. I'll have to shove an aluminum rod in there or something. They're only 3 sheets of foam thick so there's not much room.

Also gotta give her a nice paint scheme

Looks a lot like my Shrug.

Quickie # 2 in process. Top and vertical stabilzer test fit only. A buddy who flies glow quickies built me a foam core wing. Looking forward to see how it compares to my foam board quickie.

Do you have 1 servo for the ailerons or 2?

I wonder how it compares to fts Neely released jenny xl

Hope to maiden it this weekend.

In short: Mine is to scale and should fly like it. The Jenny is a big-ol powered kite.
Just waiting for a good, calm day to take it out for a maiden.

I heard that the small Jenny is harder to fly then the xl Jenny.

Dc-3 is done‼️

I broke these 2 models for 3D fly so that only the wings and tail + motor with regulator + 3 servos remained. Today I decided to start restoring this wonderful flying model. If there are those who wish to make a drawing, I attach it. The fuselage is made of 5mm foam (I do not make any bulkheads and spars). I will make a box for the 2S 750 mA battery at the end of the repair : based on the recommended CG. I forgot the ponytails from the models in the village at the cottage .We 'll have to drive 120 km .

looking good, thank you!

Ever convert a favorite kit plane into a smaller foam board design? Reduced my plans for a Ramco First Step that was popular in the North East in the early 80's and ripped this little guy out. Weather has been so patchy but hope to get it and a couple others out for some maiden flights.

looks good! all the best with the maiden

The servo on the elevator will be damaged during the first flight or the first landing. My model has
F15 by Steve Shumate
, gears were torn out of a servo with a metal gearbox (9 grams). I installed a very powerful servo mechanism that I was given to restore this model.
