Blue Birds


Submitted by Alastair Brennan:
Powered by an OS .15 and guided by a Futaba micro flight pack. Finished in a stand-way-off-scale USAF Thunderbirds theme. The dowels that link the planes together have been replaced by more modern carbon fiber. To ease take-off a dolly was made to avoid the complications of throwing.

I like the concept. You should give the plans to some poor aerospace engineering undergrad to try and figure out the aerodynamics. Would make an awesome 3rd year project.

SUPPER SWEET! I HAVE 19 AIRCRAFT 2 CHOPPERS 2 BOATS 3 R/C CARS BEEN IN THE HOBBY FOR OVER 30 YEARS ! SEEN A LOT OF CHANGES OVER THE YEARS ! KEEP GETTING BETTER

I'd like to see this design upgraded to a larger size to give it more "show" presence.
