HI guys,
As usual, I Crashed my 16" Eurofighter this weekend, though it was repairable, I decided to make 18" F-15. For power setup I removed 1805 2500Kv motor from my Su-47 and planning to use it with this one.
Will be using 450mAh 3s lipo, 10A ESC, 2X4 gms servos, 4x2.5 prop and my DX7!
After r taking few valuable tips from Angad, I decided to use 3mm as well as 5 mm biofoam.
Main wing is 18" from tip to tip, entirely made up of 3 mm Biofoam also used 3 mm for Rudder, everything else like intake and bottom is made up of 5 mm biofoam, to give strength and will help in landing.
Still under construction but here are few pictures, of the body, and motor!!!!
Cheers
Ashish

On fire nahi yaar!!! 2 weeks back i crashed my 30" yak, non repairable, and this weekend 16" Eurofighter, though it is repairable, now i have only 2 plane to fly. 1 is 21" SU-47, little unstable, and a brushless converted Phantom Super 210. so i am desperately looking for my next plane!!!! though i have most of the electronic hardware with me, all i need is model!!!!
Abt stopping, the day my wife says "ya to mai ya fir planes", that day i will surrender and will give all my planes to Subbu!!!!
Saurabh,
i will be using 1805, 2500 Kv motor, same used in my SU47. abt 2627 it is more powerful motor, so i will be using it on my next 23" SU37.

Completly agree with Controlflyer.... Ashish is on fire...although I am not able to make it to the field for the past few weeks..... But the update I have is every week Ashish is flying a new fighter plane every week.

Looks really cool. Best of luck for the maiden.
Cool :) Guess it will add to looks if engine exhaust and canopy are made black. Nice scheme :)
I have turned my PC screen away from where my F 18 is awaiting completion. She may get a complex seeing this beautiful cousin. :giggle: Well done Boss!
