Title: multiple conversions of an old plane Post by: AEROVISHWA on July 25, 2012, 10:50:34 PM i had a high wing, 3ch, .25 glow " ROYAL COACHMAN" as in india we call the coachman as "GUARD" the plane was named "ROYAL GUARD"
the kit was purchased in 1999 and built by my dad, but never took to air and remained as a HANGER QUEEN.... it was his first RC plane.... but never got time later on to fly it...!! i still remember the time i spent building that plane along with some control lines(famous in those days) i was around 6-7 yrs old...! the plane was a 3 ch high wing nitro trainer.... but one thing was good that the Tx was a futaba 6Ex (one of the newly launched in those days...) the plane was hanging in my room with the engine for around the next 10 yrs,.... and was a inspiration for me to get in this field.... i learnt on a different plane and never bothered to come on this 3Ch trainer.... and finally decided to convert this plane...... for my requirements... some pics of the old version... Title: Re: multiple conversions.... Post by: AEROVISHWA on July 25, 2012, 10:54:20 PM so now the modification part,....!!
the plane is converted from and to 3ch --> 4ch nitro--> electric trike--> taildragger high wing -->low wing std servos--> micro servos and many more added features...!!
