Greetings fellow RCIndians. Smiley
I built this simple stick plane using a kf2 BluBaby wing that was made for the BluBaby but didn't quite work out as i had planned.
I have maidened it and out of 7-8 failed flights it flew once for 6mins at WOT. It was under powered, have used the 16gm hextronik motor with 10A ESC and 7035 propeller.
The tail feathers are removable with a friction fit system. It works but its not robust.
As i had 2x leftover 5gm servos from blubaby build i used both on the wing for ailerons and programmed flaps too. Probably a bigger motor will get it flying well but i don't want to spend on it right now. Will make a bigger stick later on.

Currently i only have a few pics but ill upload the rest soon.  Thumbs Up
I am not entering this into the sweepstakes because i don't have the necessary documentation. (Video)

Thanks, sorry but no videos as i maidened it alone.
Also its underpowered so will have to change Power system. If im changing it anyways, ill build a bigger plane.
This is kinda floaty and doesnt handle wind well.

So will build bigger plane In the same way. Smiley

Upgraded motor to 2204-14T and 8x6 prop(Thank you very much Kenistan for suggesting this combo) without it the plane would have been grounded.

Thanks a lot Shreekant Sir(Rooster) for taking the video Thumbs Up Salute
Also best flight i got was 18-20 mins, climbing up and gliding back down Smiley

Video is hazy full screen looks better on embedded screen.
Heres the video:


Heres a flight by Shreekant Sir:



Ended in a crash i think batt ran out, was waiting for a crash to see how damaged it would get. Only damage was bent motor mount(Bent it back on field) and detached landing gear(By design)
Fixed landing gear back.Then flew again Smiley

Ok heres an update, have changed wing to polyhedral and it flies ok. Cant cut the wind though, and have to add ailerons.
Few build pics that i found on my phone.

Also the Highlight(Onboard video with an sj4000):
This was my first attempt with a camera on it and just a 2s 500mAh on it.

Thanks Roman "Sir" Grin had seen that plane its a nice one looks like slow stick. Smiley
This stick was inspired from your builds wanted it to be slow but it turned out to be both fast and moderately slow. Has a nice speed envelope. Im thinking if i should draw out plans and put up a detailed build log. Coz its a really nice trainer, has crashed around quite a lot but easily fixable. All landings are hard but it survives. Thats what i wanted in the BB learnt from that then made this Thumbs Up

Also gonna try a speed wing, flat kf2 with ailerons. And do aerobatics on it.
