Default heli to plane.....

i know some of you have the picco z, well mine brake and i decided to get creative. build my own plane. i took all the electronics, and put it on a balsa stick. made some wings. just need a prop and i good.

all i can control is the throttle. all its made out of is 1/16 balsa and 1/8 balsa.

specs
9" wingspan
9" tail boom
4" tail
unknown weight, took photos but my phone just died and its 1oam and to tired to put my phone on the charger.
i just did some test flights and it had a nice bank turn to the right, and flew very level.


and why does every one on here buy air hogs and dont mod them. once something breaks take it abart and build your own costem design......
