Title: Ft commuter (coro) build log
Post by: Mehul Anand on July 09, 2019, 10:58:10 PM
Hey so posting after quite a few weeks. ;D

The ft commuter is based on the Cessna ( ??? Not sure can't remember).
The build has a wingspan of ~30 inches

After building quite a few planes out of coro, I can build better (got to know some tricks to use coro  ;))

It's a trainer or park flyer whatever you call it. It has some really nice looks.

Setup : Flysky FSi6
             A2212 2200 kV motor
             30 A ESC
             9 gram servos
             3s 1000 mah 35 C orange lipo


Had to modify the plans also to make it compatible with coro and my small pushrods(relatively)

Cheers

Day 1: got the pieces cut and started doing the fuselage

Added some pieces in between the fuselage where it felt weak. The servo is supposed to be inside the fuse but I don't have a longer pushrod and umbrella rods cut coro easily, so will mount tail servos outside similar as my ft tiny trainers.

The shape of the fuselage is quite good and is amazing to look at (the camera shows it worst, will look good after applying vinyls ;) )  it was quite a experience folding such a fuselage and gladly I didn't burn my hands :giggle:




If you have any suggestions or queries please suggest.. can ask for more pics

It feels nice to turn your room into a hangar ;) :giggle:
