Default RE: Here's A Simple & FREE First Foam Build Plan! (Part 2)


ORIGINAL: calvino

EPS = packing foam stuff, ive managed to make up a hot-wire tool, now to get the foam and make a Soo , im still considering 2 servo aelerons, i think will retire the slow stick as an 'ap" (potential) plane and make the Soo one, do you guys think its a good idea to put gear on the soo, or no? i guess the prop (if the right size) won't hit the ground, so you could embed tires into the fuse and make it take off....
You don't need landing gear unless you want to do take offs, or just raise the motor mount like I did on my last build to have the prop clear the ground so you can rise off grass without landing gear.
