D for Donald Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 These are generally tried and tested designs. The Wasp orWizard are variations of the same theme. I've built the Mystic and Magician, larger versions of the Wizard and both are good flyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy48 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Posted by Redex on 19/05/2020 09:31:08: Just finished building the Musketeer converted for electric - yet to maiden though. I built a pair of electric ones, one of my favourite planes, quite a few years old now. I built 2 because I had just learned to fly, and this was my first low winger and I didn't expect it to last long. I still have them both. Really tough planes. If you have a look on the Pegasus Models website, there is a picture of the pair of them. I built the interior layout of the fus differently so that there was a horizontal tray from the engine bulkhead to just behind the wing. At the nose, the 4S 3000 battery sits, with the ESC under the tray. Further back sit 2 11g metal geared servos and the receiver. The whole of the top of the fus back to the wing lifts off for dead easy access to the battery and electronics. The only real building difficulty was joining the two veneer covered foam wings. This takes some very careful lining up to ensure there are no twists. Balances well with no weights in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathal Gantly Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 My first ever build was a Gazelle, back in '93. As a totally inexperienced builder, I remember it went together easily and was very enjoyable to build. Quite tough too... I remember it surviving several hard impacts requiring an element of rebuild! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
