My Mistake
Phillybaby: thought that Merry Old England had succumbed to the Metric system, too? How can Canada have changed to metric, kilometers on their highways without the Queens' permission. It must be all those Frenchmen in Quebec screwing up the English system. My auto "speedo' has both systems just in case we ever venture into Canada again! Real problem in Quebec however because all roadsigns in French with no English conversions, unlike both road sign languages used in the English speaking Provinces! I'll be damned if I will learn an obsolete language!

not yet, tho we are taught to meauer in CM and no longer allowed to sell items in lbs or pints. and now it looks like the pounds off, i vote no.
yes.. those FrenchCanidians have a REAL! problem with the engilsh, could be called raceism even.
I spent ten days in france last month, it AINT the laungage of love, very ugly to hear spoken normally.
Adding the radio flyer to the weird planes pages now.. also another thread i forgot about... give me a few mins and it'll be done

Here's another inflite picture.
Some specs...
The main wing is coroplast constructed similar to a pizza box. I used an HDPE motor mount and an aluminum channel for the spine. I used 4 mil coro for the bottom of the wing with a 2 mil top to give it some airfoil. The sides of the wagon are 4 mil coro 4" tall. The wheels are 6" diameter made of 4 mil coroplast with servo wheel hubs. The wingspan is 24" and the chord is 36" with 6" elevons. The landing gear is 3/4"x1/8" aluminum. I have the front gear mounted with 1 screw in the center and a servo hooked to it for steering. In the big picture there is an Irvine .53 on it. I needed more weight up front so I took that off and mounted an MDS .61. It weighs just over 5 lbs. It flys alright, about like a pizza box.
