RE: Super Kaos Junior Build
I have not posted any updates for a while. This is due to other projects taking priority such as assembling a Tower Hobbies ARF Kaos and drawing up a Hanno Prettner SupraFly 25 in CAD so that the parts could be laser cut.
I have decided to make my Super Kaos JR project electric powered since the other Kaos is glow powered using an O.S. AX 46. The motor I have chosen for the Super Kaos is a Hacker A30-10XL on 4S Lipoly power. This should easily power the Super Kaos if I can keep the weight to 5lbs or less. I think this is possible. Instead of building the horizontal stabilizer out of sheet balsa I chose the wood carefully and went all built up. Even though the wing is only slightly smaller then the Kaos ARF wing, it weighs quite a bit less. I had to totally scratch build the wing for the Super Kaos but this allowed me to select all the balsa wood carefully. There will be many further modifications to the original plans in order to make the model successful as an electric. Stay tuned.
