RCMonkee Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Having got a couple of planes i thought i would have ago at a scratch build. Something relatively simple to begin with so i downloaded some plans. Found some foam sheets at a craft store, fired up the glue gun and got cutting. This is it so far.....

RCMonkee Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 Just gonna stick them underneath. Just wired it all up and set the channel mixing up with a bit of help from youtube. Needs some tidying of the wires, trimming, correct weight lipo and a break in the weather. Looks like a duck waving his feet lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCMonkee Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 I just used a hot glue gun. But also got some foam safe Cyano which you use with an Activator which dries in seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
