The Three pack comes with an extra fuselage and a couple extra pieces of the white foam to try your own design. I threw something together quickly by eyeball. Weighs about 47 grams. Basically is very slow aircraft for tooling around the yard since we can't go anywhere right now. Flies with about 30 degree nose up and maintains altitude at about 50% throttle. In high-rates I have about a 12-15ft turn radius.The horizontal stabilizer is angled down about the thickness of a piece of foam. Span is 11.5" Wing Dihedral is about a 1.5" rise... so um..14.6 degrees or so. Tail is about 5 degrees by eyeball. Engines are 3" from center-line.
The control board is about 1.5" long and about 3/4" high. I make a full 1" high slot to protect the switch and the LED.

Yay - thanks for the heads up!
Help a brother out........ Why is it $4 cheaper than on the STEM site?
Not sure why, but the B twin pack is $10 cheaper on the stem store...Help a brother out........ Why is it $4 cheaper than on the STEM site?

I finally put the FT freighter together. It flies a little faster than I’d like for the area I have to work with. It doesn’t help that it’s pretty windy today and I have plenty of trees and other obstacles to get in the way when trying to get back down. I was a little surprised at how good the power off glide was. It makes me like the EZ glider even more, the slower flight makes it easier to manage in the yard.
We got the bundle last week. It’s great! The freighter flies extremely well. We’ve only built the v tail and canard so far. Both fly well too! We did modify a Quercetti glider and it flies pretty well, need to work on thrust angles but it’s FAST!
Next step is to create some sort of 3d printed motor mount for 7x16 quad motors....that way you just move the board and battery from plane to plane. These things are sooo much fun.

flew the freighter and plank again today and i have to admit my opinion has varied since owning them...
at first they were really fun and diff...
then they were pretty basic and boring...
then they made me re-think how i was flying it...
then we started barn storming the plank today...
and now, i'm sold again.
may have even accidentally, on purpose, bought another pack.
laters,

Yeah, I was thinking about that but would love to have the full kit to build and fly with the kids.
Oh, I see - I thought the power pack was the only one that was out of stock.
Working on getting the plans ready to share. They are still considered beta, but I would love for you guys to try it out and give feedback. Might be able to post them today...
