Scratch built RC Viper from BattleStar Galactica

This turned out to be a really cool build . A bit hard to fly but once trimmed out well , she was still hard to fly ! I plan on making a few changes to the next version . Hmm , now something from Star Wars perhaps ?

The air is thicker in the winter. You may get better control when it warms up.

@bdkalltheway Im not sure why it was rocking so much , slightly larger wings may help . Its a really cool looking model though . I plan on making another with more of a paint job . So many planes I want to make and not enough servos !

Something larger, with jet engines! Loose the prop sound.

@Alvin691 that would be cool ! But I'm not sure so how the dollar store foam would hold up .

@sgtalon in the beginning of this vid youtube.com/watch?v=4gX3sGq4qP­4 you can see the cylon all over the place . Its a really cool looking model , I would love to get it to fly .. Do you have a list of all your planes anywhere ?

[sgtalon]

@canadianhoser Move your CG Farther forward. It is way farther up than you would think on the Cylon. That one is one of my best fliers when you get it set up properly.

@sgtalon hey thx Sg , I love the way your planes go together , and they look even better ! I've built two other of your models the cylon and Attack Cruiser .. I never could get the cylon to fly though , it just wanting to flip over .. Thx for sharing your plans!

Looks awesome Hoser! Glad you are enjoying my design. Please post on the thread any improvements you come up with!
