Title: My First Homemade Thermocol RC Plane.
Post by: Nagaraju on July 18, 2013, 08:45:05 PM

Hi, I am new to this forum. :)
I have made an electric rc plane out of thermocol. It took me 4 days to complete this thing.
I used 2200mah 20c 2s lipo,
2210 kv1200 motor,
20amp ESC,
AV9A 9g servos,
9*4.7 prop.
It flies well, little bit tail heavy.
Some pics->

Oh Boy! RcNeil is right. Your wing is back to front. Did you fly her like that?

Move your battery to the front or your wing to the front. Btw nice idea about wrapping it with tape to strengthen it. :goodjob:
