Modified Dancing Wings Lighting Forward Swept Wing - Loops and Rolls
 
2 Attachment(s)
Plank was pulling to the left during flight and finally figured out it was wing warp when I put the laminate on the ends of the wings. So got a hair dryer and twisted the end of one wing till it looked about right. Now if flies beautifully. Very fun wing to fly. Loops and rolls and carves like a skier. No wing wobble now and the bigger motor and prop gives it lots of torque.

Faster wing than in the original configuration. Also I replaced the flimsy tail with a large vertical fin that works and looks better than original. Had to install the 30amp ESC on top of the fuse as it got too hot inside and shut down. 7 or 8x6 prop works great. Replaced 1908 motor with 2212 1400kv.

Need to patch wing end and laminate for protection as I only have weeds to land in. No flying fields here anymore as university football fields all shut down to public.

Skip to end of video for dramatic landing.
