Something new perhaps ?

Without tail booms and elevator.

I am 106,5 kg.

Here what I have so far of this 1/6 scale of a…car port fitting ac.

Remember that 5kgs I lost, well it’s back on again. !00kgs seems to be a magnetic weight for me.

Here is the 1/6 scale fuselage wing foil.

Sorry I cannot upload pics.

My diet is less energetic. Miss one meal a day, without eating larger meals to make up for it, and eating less carbs and a lot of fish.

Yes that sounds very healthy. My favourite pizza is topped with shrimps, anjovis and tuna.

Weighed myself this morning and found I have lost 5Kgs. Now to keep it off, plus another 10.

I play frisbee golf…and if I want to loose weighs I go cycling for 4-5 hrs.

Hi guys. It’s been a long time since I last viewed the forum so here’s just a quick update.
I’ve taken a side step from designing planes with a difference and am now getting my hands dirty in restoring a Thruster ultralight that has been stored for 10 years. A long term project but one that is keeping me sane in my ‘old age’. I’m looking at flying in maybe 9 months time.

Before anyone says anything, I’m on a diet already 😉

Cool project…I made a gramm weighing propeller today.

Hah!

Good luck with that (The aircraft and the diet). Good to see any old bird rescued from ground-based dereliction and put back in the skies, their rightful place.

Here are the tailfeathers for the model.

Yes, stop stealing my ideas :diablo::D

I didn’t steal your idea DESKPILOT !

I created a new lifting fuselage system that I am now building as a 1/12 scale model and then if it looks good real good ( as it seems ) I’ll build an R/C model big enuf to the get to know how it flies and then also to get real data of the construction weight and balance.

It will be world smallest aeroplane and in fact as it is a twin it will less than half spanning than the perivous record holder Staibs AIRY-PLANE from the fifties ( just like world smallest aerodyne from Stitts the Baby Bird ). It will be 190 cm spanning and 4,2 m long. Fits in any garage nicely.

How are you doing Deskpilot anyway ?

My craft is a bit like this airliner model ( 1/300 scale ) for 200 people using solar power and batteries. Just squeezed into minimum 1 seater.

Ok Deskpilot…

I might actually go back to my older FNX II design…I ironed out few bugs that were in it ( CG and small nose wheel ).

But I gotta keep you entertained.

That would be world smallest if built with 1678 mm x 2700 mm measures !

:rolleyes:

A-4-CE 1

To celebrate the newly weds..

Here is my newest version.

Doug it looks a bit like hybrid between your design and mine.

New direction…

See my blog for the latest developements !

I might test a 1/6 scale model of the 4 engine jet ( 4 x P200 ) soon.

The twin caprio is on hold now.

These both are very affordable.

White Lightning II jet is 14,3 K€ for the engines….and Caprio could be as low as 2 x 299;90 € for the electric engines.

WL II is 270 KTS mover and that electric open cockpit thing is 120 km/h region with 120 lbs empty weight. Both have my developed landing gear system.

I had to dump the flying wing…I know nothing about that sorta flying machines.

The whole thing would be easier to build. Mind you, I’m not so sure about that tail hanging off the rear end. You’ll need a very flat approach so that it didn’t touch down first, but then, delta’s need a high AoA for landing. Hmmmm, you’re heading for trouble. You would also need larger control surfaces in my opinion.
Keep trying mate, keep trying.

Mantaray !

I decided to go all the way..in the flying wing direction.

Less interference drag..and sturdier twin tailwheel assembly easy to make.

Doug,

Seen my blog lately ?

Yes, I’m keeping an eye on it via HBA.
