SnowBoot Flying Wing
« on: February 12, 2018, 15:26:56 PM »
Alright, so this year, looks like I am in a nostalgia wave, and decided to build a couple of old designs I used to build/fly many moons ago.

This one was a free plan in RCM, back in 1987!

Another great design from Jean-Louis Coussot, and a flying wing. The famous "SnowBoot".

2 hours building
2 hours finishing
1 hour setup.

All that done on Saturday :)

A full build log is coming soon, but that one is ready to fly :)
Education is important, but flying RC planes and gliders is importanter!

Happy Days

Try not to run out of airspeed, altitude and ideas....... all at the same time.
