RE: Rumplestadt
Hi Glenn..
Got it! and much, much thanks... the shipping phase took a lick and the tube was bent nearly double...which wrinkled the plan but is easily salvagable.
I should be in the city the copy shop is around the first of the week...and I'll get it scanned. I can clean up everything in photoshop....but may have to make two trips to get the final copy converted to adobe so I can post it...
Took the combat foamie to an electric fly-in in Cookeville Tn over the weekend and it was a hit!..even in very windy conditions. Everyone loved it and wanted one....and so extremely affordable.
Took it that evening to the VAM club and everyone loved it and stated it flew so well. (I was doing slow lazy eights directly over the grass runway in about 20-30 feet length at approx chest altitude) the plane wouldn't stall or do any snap tendacy.It was extremely stable and predictable. The "full width" fuse 3/4 size was ready to maiden, but I did not want to decrease its survival percentages due to the higher winds...so that will come later.
If I had a fullsize Rumplestadt (.15 size), I too would be very hard to get along with if anyone got near it in the air...and will probably be the same with the 3/4 version.... The Rumplestadt is not "relegated" to battle, but instead will be the "cute" flagship of a whole series of combat (as well as other) disposable rc planes. Although I own the url (not hosted yet) will soon have the website up as the details of manufacture are worked out.
