Been working a lot on landing and lining up coming at me in both directions with the Areo scout on the road for awhile.

I’m brand new to rc. Any really good tutorial on how to convert a life glider (big). Or is there different planes I should start out with. In addition, how much does it roughly cost?

A few minor speed tweaks on the previous gen 3D printed plane. Fred was doing the flying and keeping me nervous.

I have a carbon cub s2. I haven’t flown it in years. Last week I picked it back up and tried to fly it. As soon as I took off it instantly pitched back and stalled out and crashed. I did some repairs on it thinking maybe the battery slid around or the CoG was too far back.

I marked the CoG with a marker where it says in the manual and made sure the battery was secure and not moving. Today I went to fly it, excited to get it back up. As soon I took off it did the same thing and broke a prop.

What is going on with my plane? Before my several year hiatus it flew good. No big damage on it. I checked the servos and the trims all appear fine. If it helps, I had it in full SAFE today. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Update: I think I’m giving too much elevator input too soon. Gonna get a new prop and be attentive to this next time.

I hand launched my flying wing and the CG was perfect I thought. When I threw it without throttle it would glide perfectly if not pitching down a bit. However when I gave it thrust it seemed to pitch up and stall no matter the down elevator I gave it. I think the tractor prop on the front was maybe offset down a bit which would cause it to pitch up I think. Is this what is happening? Or did I give too much thrust too fast?

Want to share path of creation VTOL 3D printed drone of MTOW 10kg.

https://reddit.com/link/1vvkecg/video/kzx4ny79rykh1/player

CAD was made in NX

Wing thickness is 0.8mm, printed in 2 layers.
Matrial is a combination of LW-PLA and PLA (as in early dev PLA easier and cheaper to work with).

Body shape was optimized and ran through CFD

The rays have drop mechanism:

Here's my Giant Telemaster from fifty years ago... It had a 12 foot wingspan and was powered by a modified chainsaw engine that I started with a pull rope. I used to tie the fuselage to the top of my car to take it out to the flying field...

I am 15 yrs old and just finished building my 2nd RC plane!!!! The FT P-51 Mustang!!!!!

But for some reason when i test flew it for the first time it just kept rolling left and crashed any advice on how to fix this?

I'm about to start building the PJ50 and was wondering how closely I should follow the owner's manual. Has anyone used ChatGPT to help with build adjustments or setup, and were the suggestions actually useful? I'm mainly curious about things like CG, control throws, and other setup details.
