Tom Wright 2 Posted June 18, 2011 Author Share Posted June 18, 2011 Thanks FB3. The light was very low ,it was a "just have one more" occasions.

Tom Wright 2 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 The 10 ft span BM was feeling a little lonely in its special hanger so I knocked up a 48"span companion the BM Junior ,AUW 1.5 lbs with a 1800 3cell lipo ,It performs very well with a Turnigy 28-30 -1100 kv motor ,and cost Less than £10 in foam to build the airframe .

Tom Wright 2 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 The wing joints are simply reinforced with plasterers scrim and pva ,much easier and cheaper than glass cloth and epoxy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Wright 2 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 Twenty minutes none stop fun flying on one 1800 lipo and a build cost at a fraction of the cost of any comparable size ARTF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fly boy3 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Hi all, Love the flying vid. of the blue monster,my type of flying. I built Tom,s Twin Boom, from blue foam, first foamy, and, first lecy. Flies great,loops, and rolls,all at a sedate pace.Third season now. Must admit I use it as a test bed for 2nd hand 35 Mgs recievers I have bought.
