Successful flight of the Bloody "Gremlin" happened this afternoon. Tho I had no one that could take a video because I was the only one at my field this afternoon, I do have some pic's and stats. I'm also working on a PDF plan so everyone can enjoy this nimble little plane. If you want to build your own now, the parts are nothing more than a Bloody Wonder with the center trailing edge narrowed to the width of the fuselage. The swappable engine pod is standard BW pod. The vertical fins are the top half of the BW fin with a angle cut to mount to the fuse. 2 servos to make up the elevons. Motor, ESC, Battery, and servos are all BW standard equipment.
The flight was good rite off. just a little bit of down trim needed and a click or 3 of right trim. The plane is a little pitch sensitive and have to play with the CG a little to get it perfect, but it flew well and fast. Maneuverability is not a problem for this plane, turns on a dime and loops very tight. With this engine prop combo power is not a problem! unlimited vertical? NOT A PROBLEM! I hope to have get a vid up sometime this week.
Please ask any questions about the build if you want to put on together before the plans are done. I will be glad to help you through your Bloody Gremlin build!!
