DIY Rc plane

[Emm2849]

I have just finished my diy rc plane and it actually flies really well. It has 30 inch wingspan and about 24 inch fuselage. Lost the bullet connector so I’m waiting for a replacement.

It’s running 3s with a 1400kv motor, 8060 propeller

Looks pretty cool. You gonna get any flight video?

Very cool. I've been wanting to make one from scratch but time is the enemy.

Nice work, I've built a couple myself but never took them out.
I'm sure they are smashed in the junk room now.

Awesome, I like the use of LEGO I second on a flight video

 

[Emm2849]

I will be posting a flight video tomorrow so stay tuned

 

[Doom!]

Look forward to seeing it.

fortunately, this is the only video I was able to take. Crashed it then fixed it up and flew it again today but somehow the controls got inverted and lost signal even though it was only a few hundred feet out. Thankfully the electronics are fine and the only things that broke were the propeller and the wing got ripped in half. Will be making another one because this was really fun while it lasted
Here is the video
