my covid project
Although not being totally furloughed due to work continuing, I have had a few days off and finally managed to get my arse in gear and make this RC plane. From a Balsa kit from Aeroflyte- the Hustler III. I believe the rights and plans were sold to a company in Adelaide which has since burnt down. It has taken me about four months working very slowly. I am just now waiting for the long rubber bands to come to hold the wings on as they were sold out at my local model shop.
It has 3 servos and an electric motor. Covering is heat shrink film but I ran out of the same colour hence the tutti fruiti appearance.
I just need to balance it then-when the local flying field opens, take it there to allow someone who knows what they are doing crash it first!! Has been great fun.
Ladies and Gentlemen- call sign COV-19!
