Title: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: VC on March 13, 2010, 11:49:26 PM Hi!
Has anyone here built/is building a Steve Shumate designed model? Specifically, the F 14, F 15 or the F 18. I would love to hear from them. Cheers! VC Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: VC on March 14, 2010, 08:27:08 PM The silence in the forum tells me that no one has ever built one of these? These are full 3D Profile models designed by Steven Shumate, for electric BL motors. Plans are available free.
These are pictures of models available on the net and are NOT built by me. I am just about to begin on a profile F 18 Super Hornet, and will then follow it up with a Shumate F 15 Eagle. Regards, VC Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: amulu10 on March 14, 2010, 08:52:09 PM good looking jets! went through a couple of the build threads in rcgroups. Quite a bit of construction is required! but i dont think they are called profile models..i think u were trying to say Full Fuse .?
these are profile models http://www.parkjets.com/free-plans/category/profile the f-22 you had built recently are profile type constructions..! btw the parkjets site is very good.! there are lots of links to free jet plans.. steve shumate is also there. http://www.parkjets.com/free-plans/category/by-hans-joachim this is also a similar type of full fuse jet but a bit simpler to build than steve shumate. Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: VC on March 14, 2010, 09:02:58 PM That is EXACTLY what I meant. I am beginning to build a PROFILE F 18 Hornet and only AFTER THAT, I will attempt to build a Full 3D Profile Shumate F15 Eagle. Or should I call that a 'semi scale parkjet'? :headscratch:
The Hornet will be similar to my F22 Raptor, only bigger at 41 inch Fuselage and 29 inch Span. Cheers! ;D VC Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: amulu10 on March 14, 2010, 09:10:53 PM I think they are called Full fuse parkjets ,atleast thats what they call them in RCgroups.com do you have links to that profile f18.? good luck on that sir! :thumbsup: btw sir if u need any parkjet plans let me know. i have quite a few of them that i collected over a period of time! and also check out that f-16 i had posted in my earlier edited post ! Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: VC on March 14, 2010, 09:20:10 PM Just downloaded the F 16, it seems to be too complicated ( Hope I downloaded the correct one!) Let me have your email and I will send the F18 to you.
Cheers! VC Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: amulu10 on March 14, 2010, 09:24:43 PM if its the one i posted well. actually that f16 is basically a profile type construction with bent foam attached to make the cockpit area and the full fuse. If u go through the rcgroups thread you will find it easy compared to steve shumate Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: kronikpilot on March 20, 2010, 06:09:48 AM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JlPdqr1Ang My f-18 shumate design.

Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: VC on March 20, 2010, 11:17:54 AM Very nice! Thanks for the inspiration.
Cheers! VC Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: technophile on March 20, 2010, 03:04:13 PM am planning to build one, Shumate's Su-37....need to get a 6ch Tx/Rx at a cheap rate but should also have a long life, ne suggestions on that? btw i have 8 pdf plans from shumate...all look nice...
Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: technophile on March 20, 2010, 03:45:56 PM hey will u be trying to also install landing gears in your plane?
Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: kronikpilot on March 20, 2010, 08:00:10 PM wassup guys!Im glad you guys like it. ;D this is a 80% size so I was using a 1050mah Rhino 2s lipo, 3000kv 24gram blue wonder motor spining a 6x4 prop, and a 18amp supersimple esc.(all from hobby city)...as for landing gear it's better you don't put them because they fly a lot faster and better anyways the landings are always predictable.
Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: kronikpilot on March 20, 2010, 08:04:54 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxyE8gl3gTU and heres my f-15 full size shumate plans.
motor: grayson parkjet with 30amp esc. battery: 1800mah 30c 3szippy lipo. easy to build and its very easy to fly, super stable. happy flying, KP Title: Re: Steve Shumate Park Jets Post by: dinil on March 21, 2010, 07:21:35 PM good plane {:)} {:)}
