Title: Need help for selecting electric foamy plan
Post by: spitfire on August 01, 2010, 11:52:52 PM
I am flying glow engine planes till now and want to start with electric.
I want to build a plane with foam and need suggestion for a good plan. I want this plane to be a beginner type.
I have searched over internet and found some plans like Blue Baby and Cub. Are they good to start with..?
If you have any other suggestion you are most welcome to post it here.

Hello Spitfire

If you have been flying Glow engine planes for years I think you will have expertise in RC skills and maneuvers.

Therefore, for u I have a 3D foamy plane plan which was searched on Net.

Thanks a lot chanduvcrc for your advice..!
I have found plans for many 3D planes like extra330, yak54, yak55 etc over internet. But I am looking for something trainer kind of plane like high wing or powered glider so that my couple of friends who are new to RC flying can learn fly.
So if you have any suggestion/experience please post it...!

Well at this situation it will be best to build or purchase Tigermoth 400. It is the best foamy trainer plane in my opinion. As it is a biplane which stables easily in airborne and also precise in control in a manner that a beginner can fly with cozy. Even it was my first plane.

I don't have any plan for this, but you know that "internet is the ocean of information". So you may pick up your drop.

Check my recently added post "RC flying at Lucknow". In this, you can see my flight video of Tigermoth.

With regards
Chandra Sekhar

As I have some foam sheets with me I would like to build the plane myself instead of buying a plane.
I will search over internet for plan of the plane you are suggesting.
Thanks a lot...!
