My Hobo
« on: September 21, 2015, 06:57:11 PM »
Some where I forgot to post pictures of the finished Hobo.  I had even forgot to take pictures of it.   So now it has full patterns on it and I can say it flies mucho better than the pilot.  I have already sent messages to the designer,  Tom Neibehr(spelling).   Took several flights to get the wings level.  fling with LA 46 Blue,  Zoar 11-5 prop  and all Monokote covering.  Again I forgot to weigh it, but it feels light to me.  It was fun building this.  By the way I do not like complicated color schemes.

You can get plans from Tom Niebuhr his self.   Just send him a  PM(private message),  Don't tell him DOC sent you tho.   Will check again but maybe the AMA Plans Service might have them.  If they still have the program you can get a second set at same time for1/2 price.  No they did not pay me for the promo.

Great looking job on the HoBo Doc. I love simple designs like this as they are fun to build and fun to fly. Tom did a super job designing a simple stunter to go out and have some fun. Lots of bang for the buck there.

Looks like you did a great job building it Doc!  I like the paint scheme.  And a great job by Tom on the design!

I hope she does well for you ;)

Looks like a great candidate for an electric to me.
Easy to build the battery arrangement to get the CG back.
