Micro RC plane scratch build clipshow

Now with audio! The vast majority of these flew just fine, the others, not so much! A lot of them were powered with AirHogs AeroAce gear, the rest were using other micro RTF electronics or hobby grade electronics.

why not make tiny 4ch bi-plane? xD That's my challenge for you, microbilder!

[microbuilder]

@lolziloveminecraft I have actually built a couple micro sized 4 channel biplanes, but they were built sometime after I made this clipshow so they havent been seen. Once I build a few more projects I'll have enough for a 2nd video.

@microbuilder colud you send me a info about the plane on 2:04 pls?

[microbuilder]

@RCkid2726 That is a ToonRacer in P-51 markings that i drew up on CorelDraw. All balsa construction, 8.5" span, 7mm SuperSlick motor, GWS 3x2 prop cut down to 2 inches, cheap 2 channel rudder/throttle RX, 0.6 gram actuator for rudder, 145mah lipo, 15 gram AUW. You can probably still find plans for it on RCGroups in the Micro and Indoor forum.

@microbuilder oh, one more thing, could you make a video of that formation plane flying? (I won't mind any music! ;) )

[microbuilder]

@squigy97 Thanks :) I dont have any video of the formation flyer, I dont really remember what I did with that one, I built it back in '06 so its been a while! There are some other formation flyer planes on youtube I think.

@microbuilder You're welcome. I finally found some 1mm Depron and you've inspired me to get the lead out and build something for the gym. I have in mind an exact scale, Lazy Bee, sized for the Parkzone, Cessna gear. I can shrink the plans down to any size but can you suggest a wingspan?

From there, I hope to follow your lead and get creative.

[squigy97]

I think the one with the three jets in formation was pretty cool. Great job!

[microbuilder]

@hopeso Thank you!

At last, a BUILDER who displays creativity and flair in their pursuit of the hobby. While it can be good for many, buy and fly gets a bit old, after a while. Don't mind me but I get a bit annoyed when some one declares that they "built' A READY TO FLY.

Thanks for the inspiration.

I like the music too.
