Grant Darnley Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I think you're going to struggle to find anything commercially. I'd probably take inspiration from the Ripmax Extra Slim twin from a few years ago, stapling two profile fuselages together via a centre stub wing.There was a guy on one of the US forums that did the same with two Funtana 90s but I don't know that he had a lot of success, don't know if you're allowed linking to other forums but anyway http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_3000293/mpage_1/key_twin%2Cfuntana/tm.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Ertl Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Galaxy models have a twin engined model that might suit: it's available in single and twin versions. Have a look down down the page here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Hunt Posted July 1, 2007 Author Share Posted July 1, 2007 thank you guys for your comments, I like the funtana concept sounds very exciting!does anyone know if there are any plans available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Darnley Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 If you want to copy the funtana concept you try it with capiche 50s, get the plans, make two fuselages one of each wing panel and make a centre section from the root rib. That would be a good build thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
