Scale 180" C130 Project

[DAG214]

All my planes for the last 10 years have been 100% scratch, except a few PZ type foam planes.

Both my Emmaselle, and EII were 100% made up in my mind and I just built them. The C130 has always been one of my loves. Plus my B36 will fly one day, just one hold right now.....

Oh, and I only build electric, no GAS......

Updated. I moved the fuse block up to shorten even more wire.

Had never seen those. Thanks!!!!! That was the test fly day that end in two aborted take offs. Just didn't have enough power to fly. Later I found out my ESC was not calibrated with my radio and I was only getting 70% power.

Thanks for posting buddy!!!!!

And this is also why I have been a bit slow on things. I wanted to keep it off the radar as I never get anything done on time, but I really want to get the EII flying. I had guy reach out to me about scaling my EII down to a smaller version. While I was rescaling it I just couldn't get over how bad I want to get my EII in the air. So I figured out that if I take the sound system out, and redesign the wings I can get her to fly on my A100 and won't need a bigger motor. I can remove 12 pounds on the sound system and have 85% of the square inches my Emmaselle has. So here is my new wing design.

If ALL the stars align I will have the EII at SEFF with the new wing.

Looks good DAG. Do you think it would fly fine after just removing the sound system without having to build new wings?
