here is my BD-5 Smile

built according to plans from rcgroups

have not flown yet.

unfortunately, the vector of thrust is pointing bit ahead of CoG
so any attempt to get airborne from the ground makes her digging the grass Sad

Looks good Denis. Applaude

Try a couple of washers ubder the bottom of the motor mount to adjust the thrust angle think
