Coming back into the hobby, I am trying to keep to less complicated and more fun projects.
To keep it interesting I like to challenge myself with "design objectives" that don't require much time or money.
One was a 1903 Wright Flyer powered by a single Cox .049 engine and 2 belt driven props.
I'd also like to design a .049 powered plane capable of doing the entire C/L Stunt Pattern..[with my limited piloting skills]
Getting a Cox .049 RC plane into the "100 MPH Club"
Getting a balsa and Monokote .40 sized Delta into the "200 MPH Club"
