    "W"wings....Cross Breeding..Capricorn/Nutball/UFO

    Hey guys,
    I built this “W” wing out of ¼” FanFold / Blue core. It’s a design I had gotten off of RCGroups: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1504784
    Designed by : davereap There is a SketchUp 7 & 8 file available on RCgroups. Dave has built both the 3mm Depron & 1/4 fanfold versions.Thought you guys would be interested also, so here is the info and pic’s. The 3mm would be a great indoor flyer really lite..
    I made / cut out & parts with the MK3 ,because of the "W" wing platform / shape the jig I designed makes alinement of parts very easy to glue. I used just hot glue for the assembly. Still need to mount gear and maybe paint.....
    Span: 28"
    Length: 21"
    Weight: using 1/4" Fan-Fold no gear- 7.1oz. :D
    Motor: I"ll try a Blue Wonder & E Max CF2812
    Batteries: 1300 3 cell Lipo
    Prop: 8x4, 10x4
    Servos: HS55's x 3 (elevons & rudder) Attached files [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
