FT Mini Explorer?

[Bruce1026]

I was wondering if a smaller version of the FT Explorer could be done. I like the concept of the motor placement, but this is a rather large airplane and I don't have a large field to fly at.

I built the FT Bronco which is very similiar at 70% and it is one of my all time favorites. You just have to cut through the A/B folds or modify the plans to account for the board thickness. I see no reason why this one won't fly well also.

I found where someone converted a tiny trainer into a tiny explorer. Not sure if this helps. I seem to remember another post where tiny trainers were modified in various ways.

@AircPirateNinsei did one, check here to see it. @Dr. Looping Looie is working on a similar one here. If you want an even smaller one, @foamtest did a similar but much smaller version.
