Micro RC plane scratch build clipshow

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Now with audio! The vast majority of these flew just fine, the others, not so much! A lot of them were powered with AirHogs AeroAce gear, the rest were using other micro RTF electronics or hobby grade electronics.

Yep, a lot of my planes have been powered by X-Twins/AeroAce guts, hard to beat them for their simplicity and cheap price.

yes i keep build a rc micro planes hey where did you get parts from some x twin planes ?

Thanks! The P-38 at :55 seconds no longer exists, so I couldnt sell it. It was a good flyer though, and the P-38 is one of the great classics. Keep building and flying!

what do you use for your r/c gear?
microbuilder on December 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

Thanks, smaller fingers (and better eyes) sure would make things a lot easier though.

great work man, your pretty darn good at fiddly shiz!

Thank you! If you think I’m good, do a search for rguillot, NitroCharged, or Joe Malinchak (to name just a few) on RCGroups to see folks who can outbuild me with their eyes closed

Thank you for the great advice I want to try to build one do you go to like the hardware store for the balsa and the internet for the electronics. One other question do you have videos of you flying theme? Not just the p-38 but all of theme.
beasycuz on December 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

wow… i’m not a fan of all the styles of planes you built but i definately have to say that you can build small airplanes better than anyone i’ve ever seen.. i have seen some of those planes on RCGroups i’m pretty sure. Awesome builder!

Thanks! Try foam dinner plates instead of balsa, a stack of plates in your room might look a little less conspicuous than a sheet of balsa…or maybe not
microbuilder on December 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

Yep, I think only one of the of P-38s I’ve built didnt fly (that one never got pictures taken of it, so it wasnt in the clipshow). Its a great micro plane to build with AeroAce or ParkZone electronics.

microbuilder on December 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

gracias!
microbuilder on December 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

Thanks. Not all of them flew, but the majority of them did.

joatompat on December 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

Very nice works!!!!
microbuilder on December 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

Hi. The material for the plane at 3:48 is a type of foam thats used for potting fake plants. It works great for carving out shapes, but its very fragile and not exactly light weight. Might work if you keep the plane small and light, but I wouldnt suggest it for anything over an ounce. Good luck!

Thanks! The song is called Soar, by a very unknown band called Ben Arnold.
