pick a plane, any plane,

thanks for all the advise, so far I built the nutball and arrow. Super windy today so I didn't get to take them out. Maybe tomorrow.

Both lookin' good

@sundown57 - how a bout a simple soarer with a small motor to give it a bit of height at launch!?

Those are really hard to do out of foamboard...

They don't last I'll give it that.

wind is still strong but took them both out anyway. The nutball hit Mach 3 in about 2.7 seconds, no way to film it without stop-motion. Maybe the F-pack was not the best choice for that plane? lol The arrowhead on the other hand, even with the tint 2 dollar motor it flew great. Damage is minor so a quick fix and back in the air.

Arrowhead looks awesome! Possibly a little underpowered with the motor, but flies great overall

Also; nice handling of the wind, gusts can be bad in high alpha. Maybe an A pack motor would do good on the Nutball.

I don't think I've ever seen an arrowhead fly that slow straight and level.
As for the nutball I would've liked to have seen that.

it had pretty good power when I gunned it. I'm just not used to flying with no rudder so I was kinda practicing a bit.

Amazing what an experienced pilot can do huh? HAHAHAHA

As for the nutball , yeah it was ballistic.

ok so FYI never, ever put an F pack on a nutball, that would be, well NUTS. but it's a great candidate for the tiny 2 dollar motor.

The way it rolled when it smacked the ground made me giggle
