Just finished up the build on a Piece-O-Cake 72" WS motor glider. Got the airframe built, but never flown at the LHS for $30. I'll get pics of it up tomorrow, probably.

Thanks. It's a sweet little rig I picked up on consignment at a hobby shop. Can't wait to get her in the wind. 3D is new to me also but I cant to drag a rudder on the runway!! :smile28:

looking good  :smile17:

come to think of it I've got a motorized v-tail glider upstairs,  I keep for getting about it,  I need to get it out of the box again and see if the batteries are still good

I hope I didn't leave the batteries in the radio

Here's my collection of completed aircraft - there are 5 or 6 still under construction, I'll get them posted when they are done.

I will also be building a quadcopter for aerial video use...but that will be on the back burner for a little while. I still need to do some more research on them, and save up some money.

Scratch built foamy SE5




Scratch built foamy DR1




Patriot glider - began life as a $1.69 foam glider from Bed, Bath, and Beyond




GWS Slow Stick - with V-tail and flaperons




HPI Delta Twin - complete with red Sharpie stripes




Dynaflite Piece O Cake - 72" wingspan electric motor glider, powered by an AXI 2808




Great Planes Big Stik 60 - 66" wingspan, powered by an AXI 4120




Sig Kadet Sr - 78" wingspan, powered by an AXI 4120




Parkzone Mini Vapor




Parkzone Minium Cessna 210




Nine Eagles Micro P47




Twister Skylift (Chinook CH47)

Click to expand...

We don't pull ours out too often either, and none of us have planes. These cars are fast as hell though..  :smile16:

Kona Kid and I was playing with the micro heli's  during Christmas,  of couse we broke it,  then I decided to get the electric glider out,  forgot having it, spent a day getting one of two batteries to charge,  one did,  so we went out to fly,  weather was perfect for it,  well flew for about 10min,  and low and behold Kona hit the tree behind the shop,  so now I need a wing and propeller lol

Thinking about an upgrade to mine. Converion kit from first pic to second pic is about $125 shipped with tires and all. Already have the upgraded motor that can handle an 11v battery. The tires I have now come apart with an 11v battery. I have a set of foam tires that can handle the speed but they SUCK on asphalt. On the rare occasion I race this car, it's on the dirt oval at Indy R/C World.

With an 11 volt battery, the nitro cars won't stand a chance...

That's bad ass. Matt has a quadcopter with the stuff for the GoPro. I think he wants to figure out how to waterproof it or make it floatable before he tries that with it, but it's definitely something in the works.
