Hey good people,
I've been hot-wire cutting models and now looking forward to this quicker EA/Flitetest technique!
I have a few questions - perhaps someone can assist.
1) I've got a bunch of foamboard. Some 5mm and some 3mm. 5mm is slightly over the 3/16" thickness that the FT designs use but will this be good enough? And is the smaller 3mm any good for the same models or would that just be for scaled-down ones?
2) I'm planning to start with the Simple Cub just to get used to this technique. However I intend to fit it with a Flight Controller (Matek F-765), GPS and DJI Air Unit! Is there space in the Simple Cub for all of this or shall I scale it up?
3) Again regarding scaling, my next build will be the Goblin! Also with a Flight Controller (Matek F405), GPS and Caddx Vista Air Unit! Is there space in the Goblin for all of this or shall I scale it up? I see a lot of people are scaling the Goblin up a bit - 130% etc..
Well that's about it for now
looking forward to some replies from people with experience, cheers!
