Der Flugel!

[Willy Nillies]

Hi Guys and Gals,

Thought you might like to see our latest. It's been sitting on the back burner for a very very long time and just couldn't put it off any longer.

It has an amazing speed range from a fast walk to shooting off like a bullet! Unlimited vertical with an 1806 on 3s 500! We will get some much better video very soon once the weather gets a little better! The wind in the video was 12 mph gusting to 20 and it handled it pretty well! Can't wait for a semi-calm day!

That's just crying out for a black widow .49 that I have just getting dirty.

We plan on doing just that if we have enough time this weekend! Kit includes a blank firewall so that you can mount any motor you want.

I like it! Kinda looks like a Tiny Bit.

 

[Willy Nillies]

Kinda but not the same. Different airfoil, chord, wingspan etc...

Kinda but not the same.

True! It resembles a number of existing planks. Any new airplane design you come up with is going to resemble another airplane. Think about it ... there are many thousands of different airplanes yet all of them have to have similar attributes for flight. You are limited to how much you can change and still have a design that flies. You would have to get really radical to have a truly unique airplane.
