Push/pull twin motor versa wing

This is just tapped on my edf versa wing, so imagine there being no edf

Thought?

Huh, that's pretty clever. I wonder if it goes any faster in-line compared to side by side mounted.

Thanks, I think the inline may possibly be faster than the normal configuration, I build one

but I think the inline would have a little bit less drag, so probably a little faster, maybe a advantage with thrust or something but I’m not that smart 🤣

Decided to finally start on the push pull versa wing, this is about 2 hours of work, the longest part is printing, taping and cutting out the paper plans, let alone cutting out the foam. I still need to hook up the elevons, put on winglets, and make the nacelle which is a modified power pod to have a firewall in the rear.

Power pod is built

All glued on to the wing

All taped up

And now finally complete.

Flew it and it’s quick! Flys great.

I want to know it anyone else would want to build one of these, I just used x2 of the $6 value hobby 2200kv motors with cheap 30a escs. And two 1300 3s 30c batteries. All very cheap things and it flys good and sounds even cooler.

In the end the wing weighs the same as a normal versa wing with a 2200 3s. So as you can imagine with twice the thrust the push pull versa is pretty quick. Let me know if you decide to build one! I think it would be awesome.

Video?
Could you make some comments if it is better/worse than single engine in areas of yaw, pitch?

I’ll get a video new time I go fly, As to how it flies? Exactly the same as a one motor/ normal pusher versa wing. Same yaw and pitch control and feel. It’s just about twice as fast.

Great looking plane.
Are you going for the RC plane speed record?

No I’m not, it’s probably over 200mph? I don’t even know. This plane maybe, probably doesnt, get close to 100mph

548 mph is the world record

Rc????

Without a motor, no less. Accomplished via Dynamic Soaring.

Wow

 

[Monte.C]

Really cool build! I sure haven't seen that on a wing before.

Sorry but we have to call it out now.
PUSH-ME-PULL-YOU!

Next time, try the Binford 6100, more power.
