Indoor Monocoupe anyone?

[Bipeguy03]

Going into winter/indoor season and I'm laid off of work right now so I don't have the cash to build a giant scale but thought I put together something different for indoor season.

Went old school and decided to do a conversion on an old Sig Monocoupe 90.

3 channel with 5 gram servos and a 2 gram airtronics RX, gonna have STUPID power because it is getting a Hacker A10-12s (what I have), Hacker X-5 SC, and a 2S 200 mAh 20C battery.

All the electronics add up to 40 grams, looking to be under 95 grams RTF, so I have 55 grams to play with to get the airframe built and covered.

One word dude. AWESOME!!

Just one question, where in the hell have you been lately? Been missing you around here!

Welcome back.

I've been working on a Monocoupe myself. Redwing RC Stinson Reliant SR9 with a DLE 40 Twin.

Awesome!

Even though it's not a biplane....at least it has a round engine!

And what Mike said...welcome back!

I just needed a break from RC, the guys in my club really p*ssed me off a couple months ago and I just needed to walk away from all of it for a little bit. Then I needed to help my parents out after my Mom had to have brain surgery.

Anyway, I'm back and ready to have some fun

 

[pawnshopmike]

Wow. Hope mom is okay now?

Exactly. My mother in law had brain surgery and didn't make it through. Not a small thing to have done.
