I'm doing a scratch build before i leave, or at least starting the fuselage before i go.
im stuck between a couple of planes and i also am not sure what i can build with mossie parts. gonna use one motor, see if my spare prop from my extra 300 fits on. I'm going to go get some dollar tree foam and strip the paper off the parts that get curved or shaped. simple balsa structure for the wing spar and balsa sheets for horizontal stab and vertical stab. full 4 channel control. Possibly thinking delta or wing. but I'm not sure how a micro wing would fly haha. i think all i would have to of is screw the prop on backwards and it should work. I'm going to go get the foam soon and then figure out the plane I'm going to do. but hopefully i figure it out soon.
i LOVE my mossie don't get me wrong, but i only have 2 weeks till i go away. so I'm gonna gut it, since its mostly glue anyhow. and then I'm gonna save whats good and buy a new one if i like this plane, or ill buy a new fuselage after basic if i don't like the scratch build.
I'm thinking of doing one of those jet profile micros. mounting the motor in the middle and seeing how that flies. I'm not sure yet. ill let you know what i decide and any suggestions are great
using all the guts from an ultra micro mosquito, may unplug one motor if i can. if not ill have to make a double engine plane. in any case, this is a first and i have a week so it won't be super pretty. but i wanna get it done.
suggestion time!
