KK has valid points. Looking at the Slo Mo footage few take away on flaws-
-the aircraft is starving for power,too heavy
-off course flying skills
-structure and design count major one

it takes dedication to make and spirit to fly



@K K Iyer:
not at all sir...Smiley
In fact its great to know I'm getting to learn so much regarding building planes....
Reading about is different and of course building and flying requires a different skill as well....

I am working on another plane...
these points help me incorporate changes to my model at the same time... Grin
Sorry if any of my comments did offend you, it was not at all my intention...

its just that I have lot of excitement that's why I wish to explain more and more about how I went around designing it... Smiley Wink

@iwincar:
Agree with you....
yes the craft was starving for power, though really couldn't understand why... Huh?
Do you think is the motor underpowered for the weight or is it a design issue...Huh?

Archer: in fact your design is quite different reminds me like the one saw with sketches of Leonardo Vinci (certainly not comparing you) but visual feel to it quite radical ...
Since u r an techi there is distinct ratio to weight:dimension: motor:battery: prop size

Heli=Diff parts flying together in close formation



I know adding landing gear would mean extra weight but it will help save the prop, most of the time

Good job on the overall plane very innovative :-)

Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth



Archer, this is a very interesting and commendable effort. As an engineer myself (IIT-B, Class of '79) I appreciate and commend the thought and effort you have put into the very original and well planned design and build.

After going through the comments by others, I can assure you they have not really understood what you are doing here. Therefore go on tinkering; you are almost there!

All the best  Good job
