So I finished my MMM yesterday and maidened it in the morning.
And damn, this thing flies great! My last build was a PunJet, and this wasnt much fun to fly to be honest. It was a challenge to keep it in the air and Im proud to say that it survived 4 flights so far, but it wasnt what I looked for. But the MMM, powered with a 1806 motor, definitive is! This thing tracks like an arrow, I never expected such an small plane to handle like that.
With the 1806 you can fly around at half speed, though vertical climbed is limited. I flew with 2x 460mAh 3s, because my 1000mha didnt fit. In my next build Ill mod the canopy (similar to the one in the corsair) so I can use the bigger batteries. Also Ill try a remove able wing mod. I think the fuselage is strong enough, and with the modified canopy the battery is not in my way, it should be easily doable.
One thing I should notice: even if the plane has really good flight characterisics, it is not an option for beginners. It is quite small and the orientation sometimes is not that easy too see, so if you want to build this plane you should already be comfy with a 4chan plane.
all in all, very great design! wont be the last one I built
PS: if you are scratchbuilding from the v1.0 plans, check the canopy spacers, some of them are too short.
