Ok (jaxx) here you go man some side shots with the spinner and some of the pod and hatch mod for you (nic) showing how much space you have to play with
thats 2 1800 4s under the canopy section showing how much room you have and all the fwd play area for cg balance
and the short pod. Still very easy to swap(easier) and you dont have to worry about taking it out to change batterys the hatch makes it ten times easier and faster for battery change

Ya i pretty much did wing it. I sparyed the tan then did a fast tape out line for the green. Let that all dry then taped all surface edges to paint the blue bottom. It was a fast paint job so i could get her out flying but im pretty happy with it

That's a sweet looking plane, jayz! That hatch and short pod are great designs.
Get better so you can get out and fly. (or so you can get back to work and buy more stuff to build more planes)

Haha ya man thanks. Im not a 100% yet but im back to work today. And im in the middle of my cliped wing spit right now with the thin race wing like the mig wing should be finished tonight on the wing. ill post a pic of it on one of these's threds. And i just printed out a 80% mig today for my 35 36 1800 motor.
Hello Guys
Here is my realization of the nnMig3 - this is my first built of this plane and i didn't have at this time the proper aluminium spar (not available at the Home depot) so this is a 3/4 inside instead of a 1/2.
The result is a wing just 1/4 thicker, i had to dig the foam for the spar to fit in as nic did but the servos are just glued on the foam (no digging there)
I had to change a bit the fuselage so the thicker wing would fit in.
I used the hatch idea as the battery needs to be just in front of the cockpit to balance the plane properly.
That is all i did.
I just minwaxed the plane today and i will go for maiden this week after a quick airbrush set if i have time.
My power system:
NTM 3536 1400kv
HK 60A ESC
NanoTech 4s 2200A
I used 3 regular HXT900 9gr servos from HK
FUTABA 14SG - GPS module in the plane so i can get the realtime speed.
Propeller 8X4E but i'll try the 9X6 and 10x10 as soon as i can lay my hands on some.
If the experts have any comments before i go fly ;-)
I'll build another one with the regular 1/2 spar asap since i was able to train on that one.
I want to sincerely thank Nic for his contributionS, and i want to thank those who participate on this forum.
Nic, i 'll make a donation and i encourage all those who can, to do so.
You will find the donation link on the first page if i recall correctly
Regards.

Hey guy man i have to say you did a great job man nice work. And the wing being alittle thicker should not hurt you any just maybe a tad slower. You shouldent have any problems with your wing tho aslong as you dident change the AOA. Your setup sounds good. Just make sure you give her a good throw on take off and be ready. And if you can take some pix of the hatch wanna see how you did on it

Nice looking nnMig-3!
Nice work, Guy! She came out great. I know you'll love the way it zips along, your power set up should give you a really fun all around experience.
Thank you for the donation! It really means a lot to me and every little bit counts so I really appreciate it. Definitely keep us updated on your first flight!
I went ahead and trimmed the nose a bit and boxed it in. I kinda like the smooth wing bottom. my ft Mustang always belly landed badly from the scoop dragging. it looks better with it, but if it won't hurt flying. I'll property leave it smooth
I need to get the big foot 10 ordered up. even though I might test fly it once with this motor I had around

Looks great man nice job on the build. I like the closed front ends to but i left mine open for better air flow move my big motor and esc. Do fly on that motor first to get use to her then move up to the big foot cause itll become a monster
Hi,
I'm from Pemangkat West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Thank you for allowing me to join this forum.
Some days I try to make a plane nnMIG 3 with the materials and equipment which is too limited for me who lives in a small town, because it is so difficult to get the material that matches the one in flitetest.
One day I will post some pictures in order to be an inspiration to other friends, especially to make nnMIG 3 aircraft with very limited materials.
Here's the best photo results of my work, hopefully pleasing to you all.
Thank You
