Built the FT Racer.

Relatively straightforward build; as I had weight problems with the Spitfire using double laminated foamboard, decided to try using biofoam for the wings and tail feathers, with the Fuse remaining Foamboard

Slight modification in wing assembly: I first joined the wing halves then folded over. Joining two finished wing halves creates problems in gluing the dihedral braces, which are also weak and can crack easily

Also put a main Landing Gear and a tail skid. Our ground is real rough, the bottom will be scraped in no time without this. The pic shows how I put a small ply plate with 3 mm Blind Nuts to fit the main L/G

Did a marvellous goof-up first time around on the vertical stabilizer. Was a certain amount of debate whether it could fly backwards 

Nice Sanj... Coming to have a fly with with you... Please save the template for me to borrow..will save me taping the tiled plans and cutting around time..

2826-1400 KV motor, 4X HXT 900 Servos, 30 A ESC.

Maiden tomorrow

Underside.

Used coloured tape: felt too lazy for anything else

Sure Deepak. Have the full size plans printed. Will save them for you

Cheers.... !!
Have a safe landing...  Is the undercarriage being re-cycled from the Biplane ?? How are you holding it to the grub screws..another ply pcs or is the foam strong enough?? What glue have you used??

Deepak

Please post another bottom side / belly side image..this one is not very clear to see details..thanks.

The undercarriage is from the Nutball. It is fixed to a piece of ply, which is the screwed on, using M3 screws which go into the Blind Nuts.

I used hot glue throughout

I cant wait to lay my hands on this >

   beautiful....

Awesome sir your planes are just awesome
( tired of the word awesome for your planes think should look up my dictionary and find something new )

Thanks Tushar, Maahin, Aman and Nitesh

Did not have a successful maiden , a first time with FT

The biofoam on the aileron flexes, needs reinforcement. Also, ground take -offs are a problem on the rough ground. For a maiden, it is preferred, as one has the option of aborting, unlike a hand launch.

Next weekend 

Any update on the racer?

Re-maiden planned for tomorrow. WWP
