Ok guys now is the time to show off your pride and joy!! Lets see those great looking planes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

me flying my cougar on its 2nd flight. looks fake but it isnt its just my rubbish paint shop pro use

my funtana and my ucan really low

try to tail tap that box near your UCD. my life time goal is to dunk my flips tail in the bin at our feild, that is aslong as its empty of course!

promise i'll try - this one was a o so close

ouch- i woldnt like to hover to low and close. knowing my luck one of those stones would get my eye

how do you guys do taht like how do they just stay there in that one spot straight up i dont get it lol it looks really hard...

You need lots of power so that I can go straight up.

You need powerful rudder and elevators with lots of throw so that you can hold it straight.

Oh and you need lots of practise.

Here is my enjoyment!

If you got the right plane and lots of time on the stick then its not hard at all. Of course I say that and there is probobly some poor guy out there that is reading this that has been trying for years and still cant get it down.

Adrian, what engine are you flying on your UCANDO? I have one and a Saito 91 laying around and was wondering if that would work


CAPT KC those are some fine birds you have there as well

Pic #1 is my old UCD with a Saito 91. DiabloKid - the engine is a nice match for the plane, though not extrememly overpowered. This is the plane I used to build up my hovering courage. It is now owned by someone else who is learning how to hover low.

Pics #2 and #3 are my new Composite ARF Extra 2.6M with a DA-100.

Pic #4 is my Midwest Extra with a Brison 3.2.

For vids of my planes, go to my website! I am looking forward to flying the Composite ARF more and getting some new videos up. When the new IMAC sequences are posted I'll be sure to get some IMAC vids in.

Thanks Diablo! They are a hoot. I have a Saito 91 on front of the UCan with a 15x4w apc prop. As for the cap, its a OS 50sx pushing a mas 11x6 prop. The ucan will knife edge with little effert on the sticks and will climb up and and travel like clock hands if you stay in it. The cap will knife but no up pull, will just go sideways. I really enjoy both of these planes. I put the cap through its maiden flight today. Did a splendid job!

ok, heres mine, first my beloved Cougar, shuch a fun machine, i love hanging this, and the Pheonix over our windsock.
this pic was taken after i smashed the wing tip and rebuilt it on the field

to add to Ians suggestion.. once you can tail touch, it's fun to try different things, the wing sock, peg board ( pegs everywhere ) a friends plane thats landed
cartman in midair

i agree phill, great fun!

our ucan now runs with the 91fx - not a single problem - seems we are lucky - but my dad is an old engine guru so we drilled the clank and put big fuel tubing and she runs sweet al day long.

I'll have to get some good pics of my other plane when I get the bearings
Here's my Funtana

some of my pics

Here is just one it is a scratch built modified Troybuilt Extra 260 and the second pic is of the second one and third picture is of some of the fleet

The UCD is not mine but the Laser3D is. I crashed the Laser3D later that flight when the engine quit on me in hover around 5-6' off the deck.

Oh yeah,

And how could I forget my SPAD

IAN how many times have i seen the ones you have... i only have them ones as ive not took my digital camera flying for ages...
