@martie076 If you want to follow the complete build, look on the RCMF forum and search for Lazy Bee, Andy Clancy's Finest. There are pictures of the build sequence. Regards, JH.
@martie076 I first used a Thunder Tiger .54 four stroke, which was too powerful. Have subsequently changed to a very old Saito .30 and this is ideal. This Lazy Bee is the 60 inch span version.
Ok, thanks. I started building the 40 inch version yesterday, I think i am going to use a ASP 15a motor. (I just want it to fly, i dont need a lot of power.)
Thanks for the comment. That bit of film was from some time ago now and the Bee has been crashed (my fault), repaired and is still flying well. I recommend it highly for a nice lazy weekend model which is small enough to transport in one piece in most cars.
A nice video and a peaceful calm plane. Enjoy your video. Thanks.

Hi, I want to build a lazy bee as my first plane,
Would this be a good beginners plane?
(P.S. I have flying experience.)

Ok, Just one question.
What is the motor you use for the bee?

@martie076 That engine will be perfect for the 40 inch model.

Ok, Thanks for the info.

@martie076 Absolutely! It is very forgiving when built to the print. To find out what happens when you change a few things, check out my channel!

You will have to build it from plans and it can be powered by glow engine or electric if you prefer.
tentpeg2123 2 years ago
i prefer glow as if i tried electric i might get a crappy 12 dollar esc and explode my plane.
