FTFC-25 MS Design And Build, Extra 300

[Houndpup Rc]

Looks great! Best one I’ve seen yet!

Thanks! Very nice design though I accidentally messed up on the tail section some...Nothing a little paint and globed glue won't hide! 🤣

 

[Houndpup Rc]

All done except for paint!

So I ran this today on a D2836 1120kv...It's gets REALLY hot when I am running it with a 9x6 prop on 4s and doing a lot of high throttle stuff which i like to do) so I decided to get a D3536 1000kv running a 11x5.5 prop...We shall see if that's better!

Which according to Grayson Hobbies is equivalent to a Park 480.

 

[Mr Man]

Should work well!

Yep! And being that I am borrowing that motor I don't want to burn it out....

Especially if you’re borrowing it!😂👍

i made one of these last week but the shape of the win saddles on the fuse and the shape the wing airfoil comes out to are no where near the same. anyone else have same issue?

The formers on the fuselage require you to cut a chunk out of them so the wing can slide forward farther. Don't know if that's the issue though. If you send some pics I could probably tell you the problem.

I’ll take some pics tomorrow the wing saddle and airfoil shape on the inner square support are a perfectly round and symmetrical profile but using the plans the wing profile comes to a point instead of round like the saddle and there’s a big gap above and below the front part of the airfoil

[Mr Man]

Did you glue the bottom fuselage skin on already?

 

[Mr Man]

But, my guess would be that you have the wrong airfoil shape, on this plane, you do NOT do the double bevel on the leading edge.

You don't?😳 I guess I built it wrong when I built it!😂😂

Yeah, it uses the armin wing build style (I found it on youtube by experimental airlines)

Ah okay👍

I miss Ed. He named that fold style after his son back before he gave the channel to Nathan from AeroStuff FPV.

I didn’t know he sold the channel. (granted, I had only seen a few of his old ones)

That would make sense I’ll build another this weekend if my edge kit doesn’t show up
