Mayan, just keep doing what you are doing, brother. You've got the take off on the dirt road you fly from. The landing? Drop it in the grass or bring it home, it doesn't really matter. What matters is you are over-stressing the take off. Don't. What's up with that? It is totally unlike your usual confidence, to stress a three-foot take off. Go fly! When the weather permits. Just do it!
I'm taking that to heart. I'm putting landing gear on my DR1. I intended to put it on my Mini Scout, but the little wheels I bought won't cut it. I'm trying to find the large, white, curved hubbed wheels that FT uses in the videos.
You know me, it's going to take forever and a day to build the DR1. I've still got to complete the
FT MINI SCOUT NEWBIE CHALLENGE! first. T.P. is completely repaired. She is ready to go and waiting on the weather.
The DR1? I haven't even started the build-thread yet, but I've got the foam and electronics, and I've printed the plans, and it will have landing gear!
You've already got a plane with landing gear? Put the plane on the ground and launch it.
