“My Way” is an attempt to compensate the effect of propeller gyro forces on the flying F2B model by
structural measures and to use the effect of these forces to increase line pull. During this three years
project I was able to count on the competent help of our F2B friend Wolfgang Nieuwkamp for the calculation
of the disturbing forces and the design of the compensation measures. Without his indispensable support it
would not have been possible to build several very well functioning models.
Until today (October 2018) I have built three different pusher airplanes according to the basics described.
All of those fly with a constant speed e-drive. “My Way” and its three predecessors fly agile, stable,
accurate and symmetrical. They show no tendency to "e-hunting". With very exact construction using selected
woods and adherence to the target weight of less than 1'850 grams as well as with the setting of the
operating data according to suggested values “My Way” is a suitable F2B competition model. Its construction
requires experience and skill from the construction of conventional wooden model aircraft.

Hello Peter,

with the pusher prop configuration, is the Rabe Rudder that your plane features still required? The manouvre, where planes with a normal tractor prop need the Rabe Rudder the most, is the top of the hourglas. But with a pusher, that should be easy to fly, correct? So why then is a Rabe Rudder still recommended? All hard inside corners are below or at 45°.

Hi Peter :
You are to be congratulated. Fine work. I noticed an FM-9 timer and you state that you use a pusher prop, hence constant speed.
 I'm curious-are you planning to use an active timer in the future ?
