Dave Towell Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Must have plan and spec for Nutball !!!!!!!!They look so cool and just right for indoor. Any info would be great, bets the usual shockies and miniums. Not that there is any thing wrong with them it's just one of these would be a nice change.What motor, prop ,and esc did you use etc etc etc etc.............................

Stuphedd Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 These are pretty good fun as well, note the size of te control surfaces , never flown them indoors . flat spin either way up is good and 4 ft altidude rolling circles , are easy pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_G Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Its 18" diameter, has a Blue Wonder, 8x3.8, 2x3.6g's, Corona synth rx, 2S 500mah and its all B&Q 6mm Floormaster apart from the motor stick which is on a ply plate to spread the load. All the stuff is from my fave retailer, Giantcod.I know its a job & a half, but if you're interested in a Nutball you really need to read the original thread - its huge but interesting, many variations, sizes, power options etc...Go make a brew now, then click here when you're comfy. The plans are on page 2.If you have a sense of humour, stick "Nutball" into Youtube - you'll find that its also a popular game where heavy objects are aimed at gentlemen's bits. "Nutball foamy" in the search should get you back on track, if by then you remember what you were looking for in the first place...CheersPhil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_G Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Those Makos should translate to B&Q easily Pete, nice!Any chance of a plan view photo and a 90 degree side shot? Wish I could do airbrushing, the 3D effects a decent artist can achieve are stunning...Here's a good Nutball video... watch how axial his rolls are!
