117 stealth.
 

I am building a 117 stealth and just wondered if anyone else has tried and succeeded. I have gotten most of the foam patterns cut and fitted, will post pics tomorrow. power is gws 350c with a 8/6 prop. 3s1p lipo, just like the 3d foamies. I like cheap cause I tend to get lots of pieces when the plane meets the ground at high speed. using v-tail mixing and ailerons.

I made one a few years back and it is still getting some air time. I made mine with an airfoil and kept the outlines fairly scale. The speed range is 10 - 45 mph and can be flown indoors too. AUW was 10 oz with a J-250 dd and 2 cell 850. It now has a CD motor with 3 cells, weights 8 oz, pure vertical and is insanely fast! EPP and depron construction.

Yeah, i have seen a few succesful F-117s, i have one in the works as well... Check out this thread... This guy made it out of depron, pretty nice looking...he even posted the plans..

Here is my Depron -117 I got from rcsuperpowers.com. She flies super with a Frio 1400 motor. Best of all the plane was like $29.00!
