Making a flying wing with Champ electronics?
Hey guys, I am new to the forum, but I am by no means new to R/C (6 years and running). I just am getting into flying though (inspirations of the show ). So, I went out and bought a Hobbyzone Champ. It was alright for the first few flights, then I had a couple bad wrecks. Caught the power line coasting down one time and snapped a wing off, caught a good gust of wind another time between my house and shed and knocked it down and snapped the other wing then the prop. I glued everything back, and got new props in. Now, the wings fold mid flight on banks and turns. It also, constantly pulls up even fully trimmed. I have about 7 sheets of dollar tree foam board I have been debating on using for some of the FT series, but I think this is the perfect opportunity to build a wing out of the champ. Does anyone maybe have some suggestions on how to go about this? I mean I assume it's going to be trial and error mostly. I just would like a little bit of guidance.
