Red Baron

[philthy]

Here's my new "Red Baron" SC.

Some of you may have seen my "RC Melee" video, this will be the star of the sequel...

It's got a park480 with a 11x7 prop and a ram air scoop to cool the esc - works quite well.
Custom carbon fibre nose cowl, wheel strut skirts, bomb bay door and fuse reinforcements.
The paint is Plastikote super enamel (the only thing it will eat is the under fuse panel. )









It's a real rocket in the air but I have to be careful on the takeoff due to torque induced yaw
Look out for the video in the next few weeks.

Nice looking plane! I like the foot print on the back....snoopy?

Can you get pics of that bombay door from the underside?

Also like the scoop on there. I run similar in some of my high performance cars and trucks...very nice!

No, good guess but not snoopy.
From the first video we had a dog as the main pilot (yes I know it sounds weird!) So for the sequel we thought his paw print would be appropriate
Here's some underneath pics....

Amazing what a little ingenuity and artistic talent can do!

So, is the thing at the bottom like a bomb hatch?

You can put things in and drop them?

If so, that's cool.
