Default My New Spad QHOR

This is a picture of my new Spad qhor with an O.S. .25. It took about 3 or 4 evenings to build but I could do it now in half that time.

Looks good !

I built one with an OS .40 rear exhaust that I just finished today.

I need to take some pics of it tho.

Where is yours balanced ?

Flyer, balance it about 1/2"-3/4" behind the fold without fuel.

Check out my prop website in my sig for qhor vids.

JohnVH,

Mine is balanced on the back flute of the wing fold with out fuel.

I've got an 8 ounce tank on the front,

here's a pic, sorry for the bad quality .. it's hard to get the size down.

I bet it glides like a rock! Try moving it back farther, it probably doesnt flat spin either does it?

I actually haven't flown it yet !

I was going to out today, but the wind has been pretty bad lately.

I'll see if I can't move the CG back a bit,

Flew it today !

What a lot of fun !

the only thing I found with the wind was it likes to rotate, other than that, a load of fun

I need to swap the engine out tho, the os 40 rear exhaust is eating plugs. I think a 46 heli will be much better.
