Very cool Oliver! That'd be perfect for our small local field.

I like this ancient design. And it flies really well. Nice video.

@@sandfac3427 You’re making one too? If so, I would recommend using 1/32 instead of 1/16” balsa for the wing like it said on the plan. Their hard to be set in place for drying because of the angle, shape, and airfoil. Also I wouldn’t use 1/8” thick balsa for the fuse instead use 1/4” because I used hard 1/8” balsa and the framing broke completely just from the torque of the rubber.

@@sandfac3427 Good, You should. If I forgot if I told you that it’s hard to fly. Since it has three motors and is especially hard if you don’t have a head or chest camera mount. Also the wing tips are very sensitive to impacts so reinforce those. I’ve had them break off at least a dozen times so far.

A constant danger. They’ve eaten a Flying Aces Moth, P-30, and a kite or 2... the price you pay for small-field FF.

@@sandfac3427 don't tell me you hadn't realised trees magnetic towards balsa? 😆 I've lost my fair share too, don't even get me started on water and 'magnetic' streams!

I really want to learn how to make my own propellers out of balsa wood to make them lighter
