Bonzo Moon Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 If you're looking for a really easy build that's fun to fly, try this! My 'Lidl' Vulcan. It's pretty much crash proof too, survived a nose dive into the deck unscathed! This is the latest flight test with upgraded motor and prop and it was brilliant. One Lidl rc foamie glider, (fusi only, keep the wing for another project) one sheet of foamboard, 2 servos, BR2205, 6040 prop, 2 servos and rx (and a glue gun) Plans and build blogs all linked in the video description. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly Boy 3 Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Exellent flying video Bob, you have beautiful wing shape spot on. As I said previously, you are a true modeller indeed. Where do I find the plan pal ? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you open the video above in YouTube and go down to the video description, click on 'more' all the info is there. But I'll make life easy and cut and paste it here! You only need the wing outline for the foamboard which you can see on the plan and the nose is seperate. The plans are for a whole foamboard Vulcan build. I do explain it in the build blog. You can see how I joined the Lidl foam nose in my build blog here. And you can see the parts of the plan I used to get the foamboard shape. Then I split the Lidl nose so that the foamboard is sandwiched between the foam nose. This is part one video should start at 2m 54s. part two has the servos and other stuff.
