This guy has a splendid collection of planes in his hangar watch for some given below
The Electric Hangar | |

Tiger Moth Biplane | |
This was a GWS kit that was first powered by a speed 400 motor where it flew 'ok'. It was later changed and powered by a cheap Tower pro brushless and a 7x6 prop with 3 cell lipo pack. This changed the plane into a rocket. When I eventually retired the plane into the ground its fuselage broke into 2 parts but its repairable. I am letting it hang in my hangar for a new day.

This is built from the Ultrafly Kit. I got it at a bargain at towerhobbies. Powered by a brushless motor again it was a fiend for speed. The only draw back was it needed elevator mixing with throttle for reloiable flying. I got some good flights out of it. It is quite sensitive to nose weight. Fast plane ! Read more

This one is a beauty and one of my favorites. I traded the 2 brushed motors it came with for a 300W brushless inrunner and it give a super turn of speed. Flies with Elevon mixing and powered by a A123 4 cell pack it makes you look like a pro :) . If you are looking for speed this one gets my vote. Read more | |
Easystar | The best plane ever for beginners. I use a brushless for it and it simply is a plane that will fly when all others are down due to lack of space or high winds. With its pusher prop it takes a lot of beating. |
This one was a surprise out of the box as it was BIG compared to all the previous electric kits. Its about 48" wingspan and long. Weighs about 1100 gms with a good capacity battery pack. A 25 sized motor is the best for it. Read more Video | |
A Beauty from Ultrafly and capable of 3D moves as well as aerobatics. This one was a fantastic flier. Sold to a friend who is enjoying it now. Read more Video | |
The Glow Hangar | |
Edge 540 v2 | This was a beautiful kit I made using autocad and laser cutting. I made 2 versions of this and i think they turned out nice. The fuselage was a little thin compared to the orignal one though. The edge was a little prone to tip stalling but for a first plane design it was really satisfing to build and flying. |
This was my 2nd laser cut and cad designed kit. I still fly this plane and its really a very good flier. Its in its 2nd life with a new covering thats more jazzy. The engine is ASP 90 2 stroke that has done pretty well. Uses 5 standard servos. I must say this is the best design and built kit from me. Read more | |
This was my 3rd design and laser cut kit. It was scale and flew very well. Powered by a .46 engine it did all the aerobatics in the book but no 3D. The plane was covered with Vinyl and lamination film on the wing. It is still flying with a friend. I built the cowl, canopy and landing gears from scratch. Quite a looker ! Read more | |
