I am working on a foam shark 15 and I thought I would share my progress with everyone. so far I have cut out the 5mm foam pieces and glued the body pices together. I still need to make a motor mount and glue/tape all the pieces together.
for those of you curious about my power system
BP 2212-10 Brushless Motor
BP 18 Amp esc
Polyquest 3 cell 1800 mah lipo
ztron timer

Cool, let us know how it works out. I always liked 15 sized planes.

need to redo the wing. I dont like the way it came out. I think im going to run a 1/4 spar down the center to see if I can stiffen it up. still waiting on ztron timer and lipo charger before i can fly it.
well... version one is in about 5 or 6 pieces... I need to find a better way to mount the battery on the wing. I was holding it on with 3 rubber bands but it was no good. the wing I made with the spar was too flimsy and broke in half while I was flying... no damage to the electronics. broke my last e-prop so I will have to order more HB~>. tomorrow I will work on redesigning the plane. I think if I sheet the body with 1/32 or 1/16 balsa and cut lightning holes in the foam it will be much more ridged. I think I will do the same for the wing. I wonder if monokoat will stick to foam? I will have to test it. In the 3 laps and half loop I did get the plane seemed very stable. I think it has alot of potential.
