Sickbed Therapy

Well, I’ve been sick for a while and unable to do any modelling.  It’s been killing me.  So, I looked around for something that I could throw together quick.  I decided to finish off the parts for the other plane I cut out in this thread:   https://www.coxengineforum.com/t6836-just-couldnt-sleep


I had originally cut the fuselage for a Black Widow, but wanted to do an electric so I could fly it across the street.  I just cut a round firewall to match the E-Max motor I had sitting around and glued it in place.  I wanted to get it done quick, so I figured a single color fuse and a simple white canopy would serve.  Since I’m using a spare set of wings from a SuperStunter, I just shot a black coat on the fuse to match the wingtips.  Also, since I’m using the SuperStunter wingtips with the line guide on the top of the molded tip, I put the bellcrank on the top of the wing instead of inside the wing as on the previous plane.  On the Cox SuperStunter the wings were held in place using double sided tape.  To fix the foam wings to the fuselage, I just used a hot glue gun on the stub spars and the wing root.  It’s quick and works a treat.

I’ll fix the electronics in place as soon as I can find my sticky backed Velcro patches.

eFlight Control Line electric timer
HobbyWing 30A speed controller
Master Airscrew 7x4 electric prop.







Who knows, I might still cut out some crosses for the fuselage and wings after I test fly the plane and see if I like it.
