Mini-Minis

Any plans out there for real small Foamies? I'm re-purposing the guts from my Champ S+ and thought about a micro bloody wonder but thought I'd ask if someone has already built something along those lines.

There are some neat things out here for those electronics

Personally, I like to use them in balsa builds like the ones from Steven's Aeromodel

There is also an insanely beautiful scratch built balsa idea over here that you could replicate with one of the other FT designs

Localfiend started a thread a while back that's gathered a bunch of micro ideas - a lot using 2s 10g setups but some that would work just fine with the Champ's guts

And a another project I had a lot of fun doing was converting a balsa chuck glider into an RC plane using those electronics

Whichever you take on, please do post a build thread and share - it's a lot of fun giving those banged up UMX planes new life
