Thanks Mark, I always forget to do that I think its because I have one built in my mind even before it is cut LOL

OK, 2 things that I thought about; #1 if the motor is in the front on his hands, they will need reinforcement if the airframe is EPP. #2 If the motor is mounted on the hands or the feet, since it is below the wing line, it will tend to pitch up at full throttle.

If there are any ideas about the motor, let us know

Thanks,

Nate

 

Hi Nate, I recommend to fly this as a puller( motor at front! If you take a piece of .125 carbon tube and drill a hole in a 2: piece of 10mm square balsa you can run down the middle and support to the vertical fuse! Hope this pic helps.. I did this on many experimental planes and it works great!! You can just use a few tack of hot glue, its amazing how it displaces the torque!!

Thanks

OK guys, just resized this and made a code for FanFold so it fits on one sheet It has a nice little 23" wingspan but would be fun to fly indoors or light wind!! Enjoy!!!

Not to brag - but I remember that article. I'm the guy flying the pig in the first picture. The unidome is always a good time.
