Hi Daniel,

both look fine, with a 30 A ESC and a 10 x 4.7 slowfly prop you're up and away. The BEC should deliver a minimum of 3A.
Battery 11.1 V 2200 mAh will fit.

9gr servos are just fine. If you want to do wild things, 11 gr metal gear will do the trick. Then the BEC should deliver 4 A.

And you need 2 wheels.

Werner - great planes. Any chance you have an A4 template for the funk-max? (Unless I missed it on the thread somewhere...)

 

[hotwax]

Well Brett,

the FB Funk Max is a very nice flyer but was intended to be just a testbed for the balsa and tissue one. For instance I was not trusting the angles the wings were mounted, but surprise, it went well.

Some areas are quite crude and not ready for publishing. The landing gear mounting is such an area.

By now plans are paper only. Maybe I should have a second look at the plans, do more flights and let the imagination work.

No promisses

Thanks Werner - no worries.

Thank you. Very nice details.

Sad News,

with the ending of Google+ I had to remove all links to my building pictures.

Good News,

I was busy drawing new plans for new planes.

 

[P-loco85]

wait what, what is happening to google+

 

[hotwax]

It's gone, finished, ended, deleted.

Google+ R.I.P.

Finally the FB Midi Trainer is up. I modified my first plane making the nose a bit shorter, close the floor and offer a hatch for the batterie.

 

[hotwax]

I reorganised post #1 and let you get a glimpse of my latest flying creations.

FB Beam, FB Simple Pacer, FB Little Buzzer and FB Doggie Fly
Stay tuned for the plans to come.

And there is the FB Bede 4 too.

What electronics are used in the FB Strange Eagle?

 

[hotwax]

Hi Grifflyer,

on the FB Strange Eagle I use an EMAX CF 2812, ESC 20A, Battery 11.1 V 1300mAh, 4 Servos 9gr. You can beef up to a 2820 or even 2826. The Eagle should handle it fine.

The Eagle is 4 channel. Ailerons are attached by V-Cable. V-Tail is fully functional using the V-Tail Mix (50% elevator, 50% rudder)

Good News,

look at posting #1 and you will see that I liked all the pictures to my plans and projects.

Enjoy

FB Beam is now uploaded.

The shape is based upon the Trixter Beam.

It's a 3 channel plane. You find links to the drawings at Post #1 or in my Google Drive.


Have Fun
