G'night glen.......indeed, AC is a beautiful thing!
Got a little flying in today to......The ESC on the float plane burnt up so I replaced it with a slightly higher rated unit and the little bugger really books now......throw the throttle full and it's off the water in 20ft.....grass in 15..... I need to either get the balance on the prop a little better or get a beefier prop collet though.....it threw the prop off at one point.......not sure which is to blame
I'm really digging this whole RC plane thing......I think I'm gonna completely redo the drone.....learned a lot about crafting with foam board in this first model........pretty well wrecked it with glide testing......know a few things I can fix and change for the final run
still not sure what I'm gonna do for landing gear.......thinking U2 style bicycle gear with heavy gauge wire runners at the wing tips.....
