Looking again at your video here again. He he you are like the frankin hawk designer. Mad scientist with foam...Lol gr8 stuff Davey

[daveyedgar]

hehehe muhahahaha MUHAHAHAhahaha (lol thanks for the comment :)

[laithsrc]

i think you should glow bake the wing tips back on because they help the plane stay stable ask dave powers he knows

[daveyedgar]

funny cuz i was just thinking about doing that hehe. Thanks for the comment!

[RCSuperPowers]

Hey clever work. Nice job.

[daveyedgar]

Thanks Dave I appreciate it :)

[kkakis]

Very fun way to present information, I like it ! , I think you have two options in here, One is to scale down you model, in size and or weight. Two: get a brushless motor. but at least it is flying now ha! have fun! thanks for the video!

[daveyedgar]

Thanks kkakis you are right I'm gonna try both actually. I'll put up vids of the results.

[3xut]

Another gr8 video Davey. I always like the vids. I really like your deluxe field box, hehe. As mentioned way under powered. Oh I have learned to fly my wild hawk. I don`t crash anymore and I have gotten good at landing in any wind. Hey can`t wait for the next canibalized wildhawk lol....Lew

[daveyedgar]

Hey thanks Lew I appreciate it! Glad to hear you mastered your wild hawk that plane is a great teacher.

cheers

[revmkell]

More power!!;-)

[daveyedgar]

u got that right hehe, i see form your vids you got much wild hawk experience :) thanks for the post

[wdwalker861]

This is the guy that starts with foam board

and different things,, look at the older stuff

he is building a 5lb plane now but his rcFoamFighters

his older stuff ya should not have no trouble findin it

have fun

[daveyedgar]

Khewl thanks wd awesome I found their "build alongs" and they rock!

[wdwalker861]

It flew !! glad to see ya still at it, maybe move the weight foward or just buy a more powerful motor? I seen ya was not able to go up no more [maybe move the weight back ] there is just not enough power another site RCFoamers ?? I will look and see

[daveyedgar]

Ya definately underpowered - good eye, when i tossed it into a good headwind it gained altitude otherwise it petered out. Thanks for the tip!

[tension888]

wow! good try!

u r great .... 5*

[daveyedgar]

hey tension wassup bud thanks for the post. I finally got the video done hehe

[RCFMitch]

hey Dave i noticed some thing in your flight ..

first the plane want to pull to the right all the time , did you trim it in flight, and the tail seem a little heavy, perhaps move the Bat forward a bit, just suggestions , i love that plane, its do different form the rest...RCFMitch

[daveyedgar]

good eye mitch i had trouble getting the trim right. I'm making a new lighter body cuz this one is pretty heavy. I was surprised that cutting those holes did cut down alot on the weight though. the new body should do the trick.

[RCFMitch]

if you need the S300 plans let me know , i got over 2500 3D views plans..and lots of pdf.

[daveyedgar]

sweeeet I'm gonna take you up on that thanks man!

[nishbrown]

You are persistent!

I was looking at my WH, here. I was thinking of some thing like a giant slowstick?

What in the world was that last throw all about?!?

LOL!

[daveyedgar]

hehe it is a giant slow stick. I'm clueless as to how I did that cork screw dive - interesting maneuver.

[daveyedgar]

so did this one

[RCFMitch]

i love an RC guy that pushes the envelope...

keep those unique planes coming...i have a wild hawk :D

[daveyedgar]

Hey thanks mitch I guess i'm really going to town on this wild hawk hehe. You got some great vids by the way.

[flyvertigo]

I think it might be time to give up on the brushed motor or lighten the plane by a lot. Good try though.

I gave up on the WH and built the extra 300.

Of course I made the commitment to spend the money. I will upgrade the WH in the near future.

Good job on the videos.

Jim

[daveyedgar]

Thanks fly ya it needs to be alot lighter. I definately want to build the 300 for my 3d training. I'm holding out till xmas hehe but want to get a good radio, servos and brushless combo and scratch build off of that.

[daveyedgar]

this youtube is weird cuz fly's comment disappeared

[flyvertigo]

Looks like RCFMitch has a bunch of planes you can build. I am hooked on building and flying and if I live long enough maybe I'll build every plane on the internet. I will watch your progress on the WH. You definitely are making it interesting.

fly

[daveyedgar]

Thanks fly glad you liked it. I'm looking forward to seeing your vids on your builds.

[daveyedgar]

thanks fly! I went to Mitch's chat show and he sent me some plans. Rock on!

[GrahamCracker8]
