RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator

The maiden flight was a total non-event. A click of trim here and there and it was flying great. A bit of thrust adjustment, cutting down on the aileron throw, and just a touch of down trim with...

RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator

Thanks! It will be painted like the Banshee we posted above, but we're going to fly it in primer first, probably until the end of this season.

The plan is to maiden it at Ky Jets after hours,...

Shepp,

Those are actually Ziroli Panther tip tanks - ABS from Ziroli. We are going to use the Panther canopy on the Turbinator too.

RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator

Here's the Banshee style Turbinator so far...

The wings are glassed. I hope to finish the inlets tomorrow. After that, we are going to sheet the fuse in 1/4" balsa so we can round it out a bit...

RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator

RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator

RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator

Yea, the key phrase is "hopefully will resemble"... :D

We're going to leave the tail in the stock position and also leave the wing in the stock shape - I'm no aircraft designer and I don't want...

RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator
