Got the tail assembled:

And here you can see a size comparison to a slightly scaled now FT Arrow:

 

[Mr Man]

Looks good!

Looks good!

Thanks! Now I gotta get the linkages, and motors finished then I will add a FC and GPS (Gotta find a spare FPV camera sometime too....)

Lookin' good!
Are you building from the plans in Post 5? Any changes?

Thanks! Yup, I am building from the plans on post 5 and everything is good so far except that I have to add the bottom inside fuselage plate, which wasn't a big deal when building, as I just line it up to the bottom plate and cut it out of a sheet of DTFB..Shouldn't increase the sheet count!)

Balances perfect so far with a 6500mah 4s in the front...I wonder what you could get with a lion pack....

If it ends up flying good, I will probably make a build video👍

Got the V-tail setup!

 

[Mr Man]

Cool!

The 3mm CF in the vertical stabs really helps keep them stiff! (I have them glues into hole that are designed into the 3D print tail part)

Are you going to do a vtol setup for it? I am finally going to give 3 motor VTAIL VTOL a try with a ZOHD ALTUS foam version and ArduPilot

I am after all a TriCopter Nut!
