How hard is it to land that plane?

Not hard at all. Picking up all the pieces after landing is a challenge.

RC Airplane- Day 3:

Yes, electric airplanes will catch on fire, given the proper conditions…😳

 

Not too bad there Charles. It looks better than my first attempt.

This thread has done me in. I am now about to scrounge for my 'vintage' RC gear, and found an old design that I made as a kid and started CAD work to create my scratch build. I am 'f'd'.... -lol

My God… series 1975. Flown many any hour with this rig. When the best RC transmitters were made in the USA. In California no less! I wonder if it still works?

… I was not yet smoking cigars in 1975. Slope soaring and a good cigar. I am liking this idea more and more!!!

If the whole plane costs $200, wouldn't it make sense to buy another plane and start cannibalising these parts, and have the whole rest of the plane as spares? Or keep this one for spares?
