The Cheap RC Plane Posting for June 06

The Battle Tech card overview of the last past days is "Master Scrounger"

The past few days Rexie and I have been trying to learn to fly a remote control air plane, that had really bad constructed made wings that broke way to easy, the motors that move about and not really staying in one place, and good thing for duct tape. By using duct tape the wings took more of a beating than glue alone...Wednesday today, we drove to a hobby shop and priced some real gas powered and some battery RC planes, very costly, almost to big to fly, and not to many RC's came with everything as a kit.I've been really thinking about putting a small rocket engine mount under the plane on a 90 degree angle made catapult out of wood and launching it in the wind, now that would be something to see... I only seen it once a long time ago a friend took a RC plane and a type D rocket engine and launched it in the wind and took off like a V2 German rocket...Wish could get that RC plane to fly 20 minutes straight...Laters
