RC AIRCRAFT DESIGNING, BUILDING, & FLYINGHI! I enjoy designing & flying RC Aircraft that perform well in our thinner air up here; (my home sits at roughly 1. A. S. L.) I hope that some of what I share with you on these pages will be useful!

Above is a late 2. DANCER V. It's designed to fly from wheels or skis; optionally, the landing gear can be quickly removed for belly landings in areas where gear is not suitable. It's flying with a 6. The information on this design is on RCGroups. The fuselage is designed to mount a variety of wings; It is designed to be powered with a C2.

Kv rating, so that it generates good thrust while turning a modest sized 6. A high under- camber slow flying wing with a 1. LED array for night flying is also shown on the DANCER II page, along with a lot of photos and build details. It implements a narrow top doubler panel with an eliptically cut trailing edge which only extends back to 1. It has elevons as well as a large rudder, so it's very capable both in the air and on the snow! It has a wing loading of only 3. Further information and build sequence photos are on the FLIRT 2.

It has a 3. 6. Flying weight is at 7- 3/4 ounces with the lightweight skis mounted, and as low as 7- 1/8 ounces on foam wheels when flying with a 2. S 3. 60 m. AH Li. Po battery. Wing area is about 2 square feet, so depending upon the battery being used, the wing loading ranges from a bit over 3- 1/2 ounces, up to 3- 7/8 ounces per square foot. Motor is a 2. 4 gram brushless outrunner, 1. Kv, turning an APC 8x.

This one is designed using a thin KFm. It's running an inexpensive motor that is providing 1. VERY impressive! It uses elevon control, and handles high speed very well, yet also performs very well when slowed down. Launches and landings are smooth and predictable.

And it has some nice flowing lines to it's profile, too. The wing's airfoil design allows it to handle well in all conditions; it ignores gusty winds, and has a decent power- off glide for an aerobatic aircraft of this general type.

Takeoffs & landings are easy & fun. The wider stance contributes to the water flying stability, while the slightly lower dihedral angle on the shorter wing tip panels contribute to it's being less succeptible to being flipped by a gust of wind from the side. The T- tail elevator works well, and this approach gets it up out of the water, while the trailing edge runs on the water cleanly. By having the rudder extended beyond the wing's trailing edge, it acts as a very effective water rudder while on the water. It uses a 1. 70. 0 Kv 2. S 4. 60 m. AH Rhino Li.

Poly pack, turning a GWS 8. SF propeller. This aircraft is fun to drive on the ground, and also a very capable and predictable flyer in the air. With the last addition, the rear vertical stabilizer fins on the edges of the wing / deck, this Skycart can now be flown into & back out of any insane attitude & maneuver (inverted flat spins, tumbles, etc.) Recovery from any crazy antics is now quick & predictable. It handles quite a bit of gusty wind conditions without any problems, too. It's been a fun project! Here's the new Me. It's at 3. 9- 3/4.

Click on the photo above to jump to the KOMET page, where extensive details and many photos of the build sequence can be found. Flying weight is at 6- 5/8 ounces. Click on the photo above for a look at more photos of the construction and more of the specifications for this design. This sexy cousin of the Nutball has great control response- fast roll rate, great inverted flat spins, the usual insanely tight loops, inverted flight- as well as very good low speed handling. The 7. 0 watt 1. 6 gram motor has far more power than is necessary- I switched to a 1. I like it. The FLIRT was designed with a full length upper fuselage where the ESC, radio receiver, and servos are all easily installed.

The slightly thicker EPP lower fuselage is designed to allow room for carrying the battery within the foam, directly on the center line, and out of the cold winter air. The lower fuselage also provides adequate support for the extremely light weight landing gear. The 2. 4 degree dihedral setup allows for this type of agile handling response.

She will roll very rapidly, do either inside or outside loops in a very small amount of sky, and does inverted flat spins very nicely. She recovers from any attitude quickly. And with a flying weight of 3. S battery being flown) and a wing area of 1.

FLIRT has a wing loading of only 2. The underbody and tail skids act as effective vertical stabilization when flying in high- alpha atitudes.

The Flirt was designed to be highly aerobatic using only rudder and elevator.). Oh- the name??? My kind of girl!!

Click on the image above to jump to the FLIRT's page. The Spinner 2. 0 is flying at 6- 3/8 ounces in December of 2.

It features a Kline- Fogleman variant wing design, with the top step at 5. Click on the image above to jump to the SPINNER 2.

In early Dec. I'm flying an APC 6x. S 6. 20 m. AH battery pack. It is also partially inspired by the 'Shark Bait' design. It has a wing, tailgroup, and upper fuselage which is built of Bluecor fanfold foam, while the under- fuselage is made from EPP. It features very lightweight landing gear made from 2mm CF rod, and employs wing tip plates. Click on the image below to jump to that page. Above- the newest design in the MANTA Project series, the .

The material piece count is small, and the build is simple and straight- forward. The 'Fantasy Scale. The underside forward battery compartment maintains the side profile while hiding and protecting the battery.

My approach to adding the mono- wheel landing gear is another of my own design aspects; it offers an utterly simple and very effective landing gear implementation. You may want to build one for yourself! I'll provide enough in the way of plans and instructions so that a modeler should be able to do that. The base design criteria is to KEEP IT LIGHT & SIMPLE! The material you use will have a bearing on the weight, structural strength, and longevity of your Zarkanian Scout Ship. Microsoft Office Word 2007 Golden 7 here.

It's all about trade- offs, with a certain flight performance envelope in mind. Above- Another of the designs in the MANTA Project series, the . Flying at 7. 5 ounces, this is a fine flying addition to the . Click on the image above to visit the Manta Project .

It's now morphed into a lite hotliner!! Also added there is information on my new heat- forming techniques for Bluecor and Aquar. Rider foam. SPINNER III, This is the latest generation of the SPINNER design series; it features a three layer wing leading edge for the front 3. Kline- Fogleman step'. The wing spar structure consists of a 1mm diameter carbon fiber rod glued to the top & bottom surface just in front of the step at 3. The result is a very rigid wing which flies much more like a fully symmetrical wing than like a flat plate wing - a major performance improvement over the earlier SPINNER design. II (Above) is the second generation of the 'Curvy' foamies; it's highly aerobatic, with large ailerons, rudder, and a counterbalanced elevator.

It's a LOT of fun to fly; rolls cleanly & quickly, flat spins easily, loops tightly.. For more information, click on the photo above to go to the web page. The CURVACIOUS! This is a very responsive Rudder- Elevator controlled design. Landing gear is removable, mounted in place with Scotch .

With a 2. S 8. 00 m. AH CSRC Li. Poly battery pack, the flying weight is at 7- 7/8 ounces. The motor is a Go. Brushless GBv kit motor with 2. Y termination, driven by a Castle Creations Thunderbird 9 ESC.

For outdoor flying, I'm using a 9x. GWS slowflyer prop, which provides almost unlimited vertical, and the ability to do high- alpha maneuvers.
