Peanut Scale Flying 6/12/2020

Flying the rubber-powered peanut scale (13" wingspan) Waco E and Druine Turbulent. Both are powered by a lightly braided 16 inch loop of 3/32" FAI Tan rubber, and need a little more work to get fully in trim. Happy to answer any questions in the comments!
Plans are available for both models online, they're great intermediate peanut builds.

Wow you got lucky with the turbulent, that water was close. Nice flights from some good looking planes.

i needed to see this. Thanks

[@BadChizzle]

Yes you came very close to that water. Sheesh

[@indoorglidiator3285]

Nice models. Kit or scratch built? Final AUW.??

[@sandfac3427]

Thank you. They are both scratch built, the Turbulent from Walt Mooney's 15" plan reduced to peanut, and the Waco from Micro-X plans. Both were kept pretty light. Final weight without rubber 8-10 g, rubber is 20" loop 3/32" rubber.

Nice. How do you make thrust adjustment. Do you use shims or some mechanism?

[@sandfac3427]

Thanks. For the Waco I have a small piece of aluminum from the top of a soda can on the back, tightened into place and adjusted with a glasses screw. The Turbulent is adjusted with strips of 1/64" ply.

That Turbulent, did it hit the edge of a termal?

[@sandfac3427]

It did hit some lift I think. And turbulent air true to its name

[@ELPOTAX]

weight, please

[@sandfac3427]

All 3 of them are 8-10 grams without rubber, motor of 3/32” FAI super sport rubber adds another few grams
