Hi Guys,
after the crash of my B727-100 (EDF 64
)
I said "never again in this size" . But I didn't say "never again a B727"
This time I build it in edf30 size. The main parts are finished. Now I am thinking what I should use, edf30 or a pusher ?
I know this depends on the RTFW . In the moment I could estimate it ruff more or less.

I am near to varnish the B727. A ruff weight estimation will show me 600 gr. RTFW which is 150 gr. above my target weight

Now the B727 "Pusher" is ready for the maiden. I calculated (drawn methode) the CG at 39% of the center wing section from the trailing edge. Now I have to program differential aileron movement....Continue Reading

Hi Guys,
while I am waiting for the DC 10 from heavymetalrc I started a Depron MD-11 build in the size for EDF 55. I used a paper model which you can download for free from the internet. I checked the fitting and it is really good ! I plan to post the progress here from time to time but I have absolut no hurry and no plan when it should be ready
In case you have questions feel free to ask.
Best
