Default RE: smallest plane

Ahh, so these are scratch built models? Ok... Looks like Micafilm. I used to use that, and adhere it with soap residue with soapy water, and warp a prop into pitch. Mine were lil Rubber jobs. I grew up in Free Flight, and Control Line since I was 4. I competed with my father all over the country in AMA and FAI. Then I got into R/C at age 9. I'm 33 now.

So, scratch building and all is a no brainer.. I love building a kit over an arf, ya know... I think I have more fun making it, and the anticipation, than actually flying it.

I can't tell you how many g/f's I lost from giving my hobby more attention. LOL

That lil plane looks like a fun project for me to do. First I need to finish my half built ones in the hangar.

I have a few electrics to finish up. A Speed 400 pylon (just needs a prop hub assembly), and a 3D bipe. I'm considering the VPP on it.
Then I have another lil Baby Shark pylon job in a kit, and my gas Q-500 needs to be monocoted. I've just been putting it off. Work, time, and all that stuff.

I saw that odd Box of yours.. how does that fly? any vid?
