Chuck Glider Conversion

[TrentC]

I think it would be cool to convert one of those cheap dollar store chuck gliders into a model airplane.

We started a project like this once, we determined it shouldn't be too hard. You just need to hollow out a place for the electronics and hack together a rudder/elevator. We were going to use foamboard with tape hinges. You should give it a try, just make sure to double check the CG.

I once taped a D size rocket motor to a dollar store plane and it was awesome. If you can you should try it.

I was thinking myself about trying to convert some playmobil or barbie airplane to rc, they have an undercambered airfoil so that could work.

A lot of people have done conversions of the Air Hogs Titan Glider. Google it or search u-tube.
