Default The Lightning Bug Project

You're not kidding on that, I am dreading finishing this plane because then I'm gonna have to cover it

When you had that "Name That Plane Contest" one of my names was the Lightning Bug and I liked it a lot, when the "Lets have a Design Contest" came up I knew that I had to keep it.

M/Aero - thanks so much for the help with the probond. I am making quite a stink about these foam wings lately. It's just that I have a few old kit's that have them and it is important to me that I don't mess 'em up. I got the Simple Mustang to practice and as that was happening this contest started and in getting the special cut foam cores for this I got one of Bipe Flyers Firefly.

Now in addition to not wanting to screw up my original Hobby Shack 1/2a Super Sport Trainer or my real Ace R/C Upstart, I want to do a nice photo essay for the Firefly.

I am really happy with how the wings came out, that "D" tube method works really good. Here is a shot of the top,
