its_just_seth, What kind of rod did you use for the rear weel axal?
the paper clip idea is a good one by the way
How dose the plane handle with the landing gears on it?
thanks so much

-Cobalt saber
well the back axle is a paperclip as well... it flys great... better in the wind, and slow steady turns. it likes the fly level and i havent been able to takeoff from the ground. with the position of the wheels (tripod) it is rather hard to keep going straight.

i have since (late last night) i redesigned the front gear i put a wheel there as well i havent though been able to fly a lot did last night by moon light briefly and seemed good. ill post how it flys after this modification and a picture later... im pretty sure itll be the same in flight though, cause now its just a wheel in the front instead of a skid.

btw if you are intersested in takeing off i would suggest a tripod with the two wheels in the front... with the nose an inch and a half off the ground and a lil skid in rear to keep the tail from dragging



have some fun experimenting and juss do it. anything you do can be removed if it doesnt work like you want. thats the way i look at it.
