I have an HB.25 layin here that runs great. Was wondering if anyone makes a small 3D plane or if anyone had plans for one. I would like to have somethin smaller so I could have a little fun in my big back yard. I don't care if it is a profile plane or not. TIA

I'm having fun with a Mini3D from ExtremeflightRC. I have an OS25LA, 4xHS81, 1xHS55, a 270mAh battery ans a small Hitec Rx. RTF weight is 2 lbs and 1 or 2 oz. It is a fragile plane but flyes very well and light.

do a search on RCU that contains PBF (pizza box flyer) I built one of these with a fox 35 engine and it flew great! The main parts of the plane is a peice of 4MM coroplast, you know, sighn matirial? Easy to find. These things will hover and fly like anything else. If you don't want to call this a 3D plane I don't know what you would want to call it.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!

I would try the Taco (http://www.swanyshouse.com) . I have the 40 size Burrito and ordered the 40 size Mojo. The Taco is the 25 size. They are simple, rugged and fly great.

I order a Morris Pen Knife today. Seems like a nice plane. Looks the same as the Taco .25 . I tried opening the CAD file with CAD14 but said it was saved with the wrong format or something. How much is the Taco 25 kit?

I loved my Mini 3D!!!! It was an Awesome plane right up to its death (radio failure ) had a norvel 25 on it. I then made a Pizza box and had a great time with it also, but wanted something that looked a little more like a conventional plane ( like wing, tail feathers ect. ) so I built the 25 size QHOR from www.spadtothebone.com I’m having an Awesome time with it, too !!!! it took only a few hours to build and is almost indestructible. ( I tested that point out over and over again )




. I am going to gife more info on later today.
