U-joint for motor mount instead of flaps?
I am thinking about using some sort of a u-joint to connect up an electric motor to the front end of a balsa scratch plane so that it doesn't use flaps but moves the motor left/right and up/down to control direction. Does that sound doable or does anyone know of any other posts/links/folks that have tried it before? In particular, I've been thinking about different ways I could mount the motor to the nose and figure some sort of universal joint would be one option.
Thanks,
Jim
