Default RE: small plane


ORIGINAL: txaggie08

this plane is actualy made out of foam core board. it looks alot liek that though, but it has two small blasa spars(3/16 square maple i beleive) and small sections of wing rib in the front. The other difference, the fuse is literaly a stick. its one long piece of solid balsa maybe 2fott be 1inc by 3/4 inch. ill tfry to get a weight.

If its similar to what your thinking, what size motor would i be needing? would the little plane be flyable in a smallish area(theres a field across the way from my apartments i could fly in........) and how loud are those little motors(only sub .40 size ive ever heard had no muffler.)

The weight of that plane is needed first before any engine recommendations can be given and what type of flying do you want to do with it.

Can you take any photos?
