Salvaged escs and motors from quads that gave up the ghost so in that way it is on topic
 
Love them, they are doing helicopters now with motors from quads , I don't know if they fly like a heli or a quad I would think more quad , most people don't want to spend 6 months and £1000s learning to fly a CP helicopter

Very cool. I've recently tried flying a wing, got it in the air for about 10 seconds. Luckily they hot glue back together fairly easy lol. When you're used to kwads fixed wings are a whole different ballgame.
 
Ive made , what seems like a millon of them . Years ago I started out with Flitetest. Man ,Ive still got fifteen or so hanging in my garage. I loved foamies. You could make them for almost nuttin. I have fast planes and I have slow panes. One of my favorites is a glider with about a 6 foot wingspan. I can put that baby up and it will spec out in nuttin flat. On a good day you could stay up for hours. I'd have to search but, a fellow on RCGroups made the plans.He called it a one sheeter. If I was gonna recocmend one for a starter this would be it , just because it wants to stay up. The ones Ive saved are the best of my crop.Haven't been up much lately , been into phot quads. But I'd help any one interested. I always flew on the cheap . I use flysky 6 channel with the computor. It would store 20 models. Only thing here was you had a speacial name for each model and its trim.Ten years latter , it still works.Can't even say that about some cars now. As far as I'm conserned foamies down more to push model planes than any other source.When you were learning and crashed a built up balsa , you sat down and cried. With the foamies you just had a big grin. Sorry for the ramble.
