In this video I fly two of my scratch built RC planes which are made of coroplast sheet and Styrofoam.
Styrofoam is mostly used material in small homebuilding RC planes. for fuselage I mostly use coroplast and for wings I use Styrofoam. Specs for small plane: Wingspan 710 mm undercambered airfoil Chord length 150mm Motor 2300 KV brushless Li Po battery 1000 mAh 2s Total flying weight 250 grams Specs for big one: Wingspan 1500 mm undercambered airfoil Chord length 150mm Motor 1400 KV brushless Li Po battery 1500 mAh 3s Total flying weight 530 grams
This large DH Mosquito RC plane will be flown at NZ`s top airshow during Easter this year so Frazer and Mike Brigs decided to check out its handling on tarmac at the Tokoroa Airfield (NZTO)
I can`t think of a cheaper way to build an ultra-durable RC plane than by using two very tough materials: coreflute and pool noodles, along with some simple tools such as scissors and an old...
