Finished mine today: But I managed to order an 11" prop instead somehow so the first flight will have to wait
No BBQ sticks in the front through the firewall? How did you secure the front of the wing?

Theres a chopstick through the front of the firewall and I used a piece of foam board and neodymium magnets to secure the rearNo BBQ sticks in the front through the firewall? How did you secure the front of the wing?
It doesn't seem right that a power combo that had you hanging on the prop pre crash to not have enough to motivate you now that your CG is correct. Is the motor spinning up like it did before or did it suffer in the crash?
Which blue wonder do you have? I'd like to look up that stats. But an 11x7 prop sounds a little on the too large a load side. On any down time have a browse at Josh and Josh as they discuss prop selection and take the test.
Even on a tight budget, all is not lost. Foam is a dollar a sheet. motors are generally under 10 and props are cheaper still. you may have to order them and that will take a while to get them in BUT You could swap stuff out to a DIG that was posted just yesterday and play learn to fly while waiting. Where this guy uses carbon fiber you could use a cheap dowel rod. Won't be as strong so don't throw it as hard.
Its 5mm can i use this??Resilient polystyrene memory core that "bounces back" after cutting & resists denting. Ultra smooth surface perfect for mounting without ripples, bumps or dips. White outer & core.
Ok what's the trick to get these things to fly right? I can't seem to keep it in the air?
