Here are a few updates, Carsten is mounting radio


Søren is making the U/C leg for the nose

Status: offline 		IT FLIES !!!

the pilot reports docile flight  - bordering on something like a mpx mentor
1/3 throttle from a simjet 3000 is enough to fly around
AUW is 21 Kg

total buildingtime is something in the order of 40 hours total

Great job and fantastic temawork in any case!
That tuborg must work well!
I think you're ready for an Antonov AN-225!
Ciao, Mauri

Status: offline 		Thank you all
All credits goes to Kasper and Keld for comming up with this crazy idea
It could probably have been done in 24 hours with a little more planning beforehand, and a few more on the buildteam

24 hours could be a target for the next team - or hwo can build a 1:10 DC-10 the fastest ?
