My design

Hi:

Starting from the FT Explorer I decided to build my 2nd RC plane. It shares the core and boom design though my boom is shorter and it narrows upwards to ease rotation, because the model had tricycle landing gear.
The wings are the Simple Cub design which I had already built though with enlarged wingspan, 1120mn vd. 965mm.
I didn't line the Droopy-like noose so I copied a design I saw in an ultralight..
I hope next weekend will be the maiden flight, so enjoy the pictures before it is destroyed, just in case!

It looks AMAZING! Nice job! Are you going to film the maiden? What percent did you expand the cub wing to? I think this is on my project list😉

It looks great! It looks like it flys well too. I’m going to have to try this with my explorer.
