Frankenglider

[checkerboardflyer]

I am calling this one the Frankenglider; it’s made from parts from a few different sources. The fuselage is DTFB while the electronics are from a Hobbyzone Sport Cub S that had seen better days. The tail feathers are from an eFlite Timber. And the wing is made with Flite Test water resistant foam board with the paper stripped off. Battery will be a single cell lipo battery.

Cool! I have a smashed sport cub in need of a new airframe too. What is your all up weight?

Looks like 2.6 ounces. The wing is about 36" span and has a 4" chord. Should be a floater. Beside the battery I needed to add a tiny bit of weight to get it to balance slightly nose down.
