Diagrams, we need diagrams.... scale drawings and 3D photos. Document this... we are trying to establish a hall of fame (or is that flame?)

If you cannot provide the documentation... then a milk dud will do!


ORIGINAL: OzMo

ALPHA BAT
Ok, so I was given a leftover Alpha trainer wing after someone's crash. Just for kicks I bought two of the Walmart big fat red plastic bats. added a piece of dollar store bat handle to one to get the tail length I needed and used just the fat part of one for a cowl. Bolted the yardstick servo rails and alum landing gear to a cutting board motor mount and zip tied the whole thing together with some coroplast tail feathers. Put an OLD Fox 40 up front. I built it using all the specs from a Goldberg Eagle II. Damn thing flew just fine and got plenty of laughs It was fun to fly cuz I didn't care if it crashed.
