[Mr Man]

Is it just me, or is the fuse curving up by a lot?

No, just the picture.

Thanks! Although I would still recommend building it according to the plans.

Yeah?

 

[Mr Man]

Yeah?

Some of the pieces didn’t line up very well, and I had to custom make a battery hatch.

Oh. Did you fly it yet?

Tried to, was a bit tail heavy, gonna try adding some nose weight.

I think this is #4. Built from the pieces (servos, ESC, 70mm 4S EDF) of a F-4 Phantom II that spent a week up in a tree. Total speed build- from cutting foam to this point took less than a day. It is a great flying design. Maybe #4 will last longer than it's predecessors!

I'm currently busy on designing some mini Golden age Air racers.

Quick paint job and she's ready to go. I maidened #4 a few days ago and she flies like the rest of them: smooth and lively. Great plans for a great plane.
