BEST FOAMY FREE PLAN
Just killed me Shock Flyer and am planning to build a new one from plans on the internet. I've been looking at the foamy factory plans. I cant make up my mind between the mini 3dx and Echelon Bipe. i was wondering if anybody has had any experiance with either of these planes.
Cheers

RE: BEST FOAMY FREE PLAN
I've built both and if you want something that flys similar to your shocky,go for the mini 3dx- I used a 2208/34 and 2cell setup-with a 10x4.7 this will fly outdoors in calm conditions- hover well easy and can do all the usual 3d stuff- the bipe is also good but because of the wingloading is'nt as nice as the 3dx-saying that,if you keep it light it will do the business-blenders and torque rolls especially good!!!!- You can use a 3cell setup on the 3dx but you will have to watch out for tail twist-use 3mm depron throughout and whats left of your shocky(carbon rods,linkages,etc.

Go with the Mini 3DX. Echelon plans are still beta and I haven't had time to sort a few things out on it. The mini 3DX rocks and is still one of my all time favorites...

I have my free foamy plans [link=http://www.the******************.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7488&start=0]here[/link] and I think you will find them very easy to build and among the best flying. I offer the Cap, Yak54, Extra 330 and Edge 540 for free download.

I made the Mini 3DX out of blue fanfold foam and it's very durable. It flies very good and is very easy to hover. I use a CustomCDR double and 3 cell 740 lipo.

Gus155, I can print the files, I was wondering how to post them here so anyone could download them right from here. When I go to the upload section it only takes .gif, .jpg, .tif etc picture type files.
