Calling all imitation tensor builder/flyers
I got my first taste of a tensor the other day when a co-worker at the hobby shop I work at let me fly his out back. I love how it flys and having really trashed my 3dfoamy edge the other day doing a demo I am thinking about the tensor for my next foamy.
Herein lies the problem: the tensor is an indoor flyer. Houston weather is often calm enough that a 12-14 oz foamy can fly with relitive ease, however it is rarely still. Also, all of the local gymnasiums are unfavorable to me using their facilities to fly at, so I am stuck outdoors.
Because of this an actual tensor is not the best thing for me, however I am a bit of a builder and the idea has occured that it might be possible to build a big tensor that retains the flying abilities of its little brother while picking up a couple oz. to make it a more outdoor aircraft.
Anyone flying anything like what I'm thinking of?
