6mm Profile Foamy Plane Build Rust Buster
Hi Everyone 
I am getting back into Rc Building and flying, You Never leave Your First Love 
I Need to Build a Foamy Rust Buster, before I try to fly my new Quickie 500 Pylon racer 
the Quickie 500 could get to about 100 to 150 MPH with a 40 Pylon Engine, header and tune pipe with a 8.75 x 7.5 Prop, I Will use a 9x6 prop to start with and the reg. muffler with the Baffle removed for now 
to get used to the Quickie 500, But first I need to Bust the Rust off of my Thumbs 
My new build Profile plane will have about a 32" Wing span and look something like this, and will be E Power 
I want it a little on the small side so I can just toss it in the back seat and go Fly. Take care and have fun everyone, Chellie

Not so good news on the spine ... op to gloue back together OK - but now there is pressure on the 'cord' and nerves.
Tablets / Consults / Physio .... looks like a longer haul than we expected ...
Building like mad - keeps me from giving up .... but flying - haven't launched anything since early spring ... Already have a truck load of models to maiden.
You take care lass ..

Let the Build Start
Hi Everyone 
My Depron Foam came in the Mail, Sooo There is no EXCUSE Not to start Building 
Here is what I got done so far, I cut out the Wing and The Ailerons, I need to put a 45Degree cut on the ailerons so they can Pivot and I need to cut a narrow channel in the wing to put in a 6mm Carbon fiber tube with epoxy to stiffen the wing, I got a good start tonight 
Take care and have fun, Chellie

Got a little more work done
Got the wing Brace groove cut out for the 6mm carbon fiber tube, I put a 2" strip of clear packing tape on the bottom side, then pour in some 5 min epoxy, then the cf tube and the 2" packing tape on the top to seal in the epoxy and tube, makes the wing nice and strong, because I dont Intend to be Nice to this Plane Always clean Depron foam with 91% Alcohol to remove the release oil, agent thats used, or the paint, tape or glue wont stick to the foam very well, Ask me how I Know LOL
You can see the 45% cut on the ailerons, I will be using Packing tape for the Hinges on this plane, I learned to use the thickness of a T Pin on the control surface for a small gap so the control surfaces will move to 90% both ways. Ok Back to work

Almost Done with the Air Frame
I Got some more work done on the Plane, I Epoxied in the Carbon Fiber 6mm Tube in the Wing, I Made and Epoxied in the Fuselage Stiffeners in place, I Cut out The slot for the Elevator, I Made the Rudder a Little Taller by about 1" It looks better now I Need to Epoxy a Strip of Bass wood under the Fuselage from the front to the rear for stiffening and a skid as this plane will not have a landing gear, I will just catch it out of the air Ok Just Kidding 
Ok back to Work

Elevator is Done
I got the Elevator Measured out and Cut it out, I am using 2 Different Airplane Pictures for Ideas and using the T L A R Method Its getting there, My Lipos already came in the mail, they are 1350 mah 25C Lipos, the motor I Am using is a Small 1800 Kv with a 30 AMP ESC and a 6x6 Prop, a 7x6 cut down to a 6x6, It should Fly very well I Hope dont let the little bell motor fool you, They are very powerful, the trick to making them last, is to cut down the prop shaft, they are to long to begin with, and slide a collet prop holder on it, the long stock prop shaft bends to easy being so long, also use a little epoxy on the wires and glue them to the windings, and use a little CA to glue the motor to the motor mount so it dose not turn in the mount over time, I Love these little power house motors and they are only about $8.00 at Hobby king.

Got R Done
Got Her Done 
Just Needs Paint and Electronics, The Tail Feathers Took a While to Make and Fit, its done now on the Bottom of the Fuselage I Epoxied a strip of Bass wood, that gives me a skid and it also stiffens the fuselage, If its Not to Cold Tomorrow I Will Paint the Plane, I also used some Balsa strips on the Elevator and Rudder to Stiffen the foam, I Used a Little Epoxy to Glue them in place, Should be Good For 30 Gs Take care and Have Fun Everyone, Chellie

The flight bag was only $20.00 I also bought a Biker work seat It fits my Big Behind Great and is very comfortable
