  • Im sure the way this is set up would be good for every day flying,and its good to have extra power and weight when its a bit rough up stairs.

    the scale detail on Ricks plane is good.I built mine from Danial Smith free plans that I found on the net.I don't know if they are very accurate scale wise all I know is its light and it flies very nicely.I modified the plans a little because I wanted plug in wings,and it looked a bit feeble the way he had the cab area constructed.

  • @gogogeedus Awsome great info and thanks for commenting..Tim

  • Its to fast for scale.it would fly on a .45.

  • @gogogeedus Not sure if it would fly on a .45 that may be a little small.. Thnaks for commenting..Tim

  • @TinkerManRC I have a fifth scale one I scratch built that is powered by an FA50 with a 12x6 master a/s prop and that is heaps powerfully enough,but it does depend on the wing loading,mine is pretty lightly loaded,I will post some videos asap,

    btw good show!

  • @gogogeedus Thanks for this comment..Cool ..Tim

  • @TinkerManRC Why would you need flaps because its a big wing,big wings have lots of drag and that is also the purpose of flaps to induce extra drag to slow u down which in turn reduces lift.I think u need flaps on faster more highly loaded wings so u don't burn up as much strip when landing.

  • @kondakor1998 That sound fantastic, yes I agree it can be hard to find the right balsa, good luck and have fun. thanks for commenting..Tim

  • im 14 and i'm scratch building my own 1/6th scale piper cub but finding the right wood has been a challenge the balsa just never comes in the size you need. hopefully mine will fly since i'm going towards that goal.
