@jeanorwin I purchased all of the materials to build this plane from my local hobby shop, but I would suggest you purchase these materials from an online retailer like GraysonHobby because they are much cheaper at the same quality. I used an exacto knife to cut all the foam.
@jeanorwin I do not have any video tutorials unfortunately. I suggest you check out this video from rcsuperpowers "Build Your First Profile Foamie RC Plane (Class 2)", it helped when I was building my first plane. A welgard 2212 to a welgard 2217 brushless motor from graysonhobby is the class of engine you are looking for with this size of airplane.
You sure you know what prop I have? I got an 8 x 6 APC. I am thinking of going to a 10 x 5, so..... Please tell me what you think of the 10 x 5. Thanks for the comment.
by the video, you have the wrong pron my friend, you need a SF prob (slow fly0 which is for little electric planes, the pron you are using is not SF prop, one thing i know allot about is propellers ;)
Your right its not a slow flyer prop. I did get a new prop for this plane a 10 x 7 slow fly prop and performance is way up, but as you can see that is a huge prop with a big bite so that means its demanding more amps than before. If you could recommend a prop that would be great too, there are a lot of slow flyer props out there.
Where do you get the engines/battery/system from, and how do you cut the foam?

Do you have any sort of tutorials for building the plane? Especially which engine's to use etc?

Thats awesome dude1 I like your airfoil idea, I might try that. Looks good and seems to fly nice! 5 stars!

looks cool, i always like a plane that looks different from the conventional lines. 5*

your using the wrong prop, try SF props much more efficient but good job with the airfoil setup

Oh my bad, I made that comment before the end of the video.

Just to make things clear the motor is the E-flite 370 outrunner (1360 Kv edition).
bstarr119065 2 years ago
Nice plane, can you give some specs about the motor? Could you check out my super cub video, It was my first time flying, many crashes!

nice, love the airfoil

Ya I know right, I saw this style of airfoil many years ago in a magazine so I thought I'd give it a try. Thanks for the comment.
