The FloppyBird (short lived)

This is a recent scratchbuild glider I built.

Here is the original HD flight video

Unfortunately this morning, there were radio glitches that caused the plane to crash.... oh well. it was fun while it lasted

Nice HD videos
Hope it get rebuilt.
But with power on for the full flight its an interesting definition of the term "glider"!

haha, yeah

and yeah... but it's a tiny motor. Found out it produces less thrust than I thought, like 130grams of thrust and the plane is about 200-300 grams. and I used a KF airfoil to keep things light, so I sorta needed full throttle
