P-38 Lightning RC Foamie (1/20th scale Prototype)

This is a scratch build of a P-38. using 3mm depron and 1/4" balsa. The electronics were re-purposed from a Blade CX2. This gives the P-38 the benefits of having the yaw controlled by the motors and a gyro for extremely stable slow flight. Once the design is finished the plans will be posted at: http://www.rldstudios.net/rc

Stats:
Wingspan: 32"
Wing Area: 177 sq/in
Length: 23"
AUW: 8-9 oz
Motor: Speed 180
Prop: Gunther 5x4.3 or 5.5x4.5 APC
Battery: 2s 800Mah

Sorry, Link is up now. Cheers and Happy Flying!!

P.S. - this thing would scream with a couple small brushless motors!! The airfoil is also very stable because of the slight dihedral that most foamies lack.
