RE: crop duster r/c

The tubing size is 1/4 OD from Tower Hobbies. I bought a brake line bender from the parts store to bend the tubing, which was very soft, and easy to bend. The valves are just small blocks of hard...

RE: crop duster r/c

RE: crop duster r/c

The plane turned out beauteful. How does it fly? Mine flew OK, but just a bit pitch sensitive. It was just a matter of elevator dial in adjustment. On my second AirTractor, I used a NACA 0015...

RE: crop duster r/c

Thanks for the comments. I think I could design and build 50 more planes, and never get one to fly as good as this plane. I think I will stop on this one.
