Small Scale Military Headquarters

Not sure it is the right place to show it off. lol.

THis is before I added the nose weight. Now it has a 9x18 makarov bullet under the engine. :p

The plane overall weighs 4oz.

I was able to fly it successfully once. I may bring it out again later on in the week.

Thats awesome flyboy

I would'nt fly with so much trees in the background, even if I know the place. Congratulations.
May be less risk of crash if the main undercarriage is a little bit more forward, so that the wheels protect the propeller of catching the terrain? I've had hard lessons with my small parkzone plane.

THe wheels are ok now. They where made from soft balsa and kept breaking. :/

They are too close so it wants to keep doing a ground loop.

There is just ONE tree with a very wide field near my home and no wind yesterday. My 2nd son put MY parkzone plane into it... but we could bring it down with a 30 feet long bamboo assembly, and happily no trouble. Yes, definitively, I prefer flying far away from trees and admire your talent, flyboy_fx!

Thanks! Much appreciated.

I know about those "lone trees". They catch more planes then the whole dang forest. HAHA

Great video, I appreciate the flying skill, a friend and I bought some hobby lobby cheapos a few years ago, decided there was nothing to it. About 2 hours later all we had was a bunch of styrofoam and electronics.

Have stayed on the ground since.

I was more lucky than ram04, but had to spend many hours searching my bright red plane in a green field of growing potatoes. The wind blowed it away and it landed safely alone (I still have a heroic crash landing style), beeing nicely camouflaged under the green leaves roof...
So, I got 2 lessons: write your phone number on your plane, and if there is no wind at ground level, it may be very different 30 ft above.

So true! HAHA! I always take both into consideration!
Stay tuned for my newest RC plane. The FOkker DVII.

What a great fun for the Micro RC biplane! Truely amazing!!
