Default Homemade micro planes

This thread is devoted to the tiny planes we make out of scratch wood, foam, even paper and fly with guts from micro RTF’s or mini radios like Plantraco’s really cool little sub-sub-sub-micro 3ch one. I wasn’t able to find a thread like this anywhere on this site so I thought one was needed. To start off, I recently built a 12” flying wing with a central vertical stab and later added a tail. I used 1/8” CellFoam 88 fo the whole thing and AHRF guts minus the actuator. I’ll post pics as soon as my camera decides to work but until then Sharky (so named for its resemblance to a shark…clever, eh?) will not be revealed…
