Title: My first Build log.
Post by: tatum012 on April 08, 2013, 11:55:43 PM
Hi,
After building 2 balsa models and then gaining some expertise in flying, flying them, i decided to build something out of some cheap material. Used corrugated plastic sheet. Its easy to work with especially you can get hinges out of the corrugations. Did not follow any plan or measurements. Went ahead with instincts.

Motor used:- Emax 2218
ESC-20 A
Servos- Standard 9gms
Battery- lipo 3S 1800mAh
Prop- 10x6

yes wing span and fuselage length are almost equal..result of building without a plan but she flies well, very stable and smooth..no it is a slow plane!!!
