trippleX
General:
A tripple wing lightweight plane for micro equipment.
It is easy to build and one of the first in his kind. Because of the tripple wings the wingload is minimum.
My opinion:
The test flight didn't went as I hoped. It was not very stable.
It respons on the elevator is very sensitive. I think the elevator and rudder needs to be further away from the wing.
I still like the design but it needs some tweaking.

XXstra
General:
A lightweight xxs plane for micro equipment.
The silhouette fuselage is easy to build but takes some time to cut out
because of the weight reduction holes.
The leading edge is reinforced with a double 3mm depron piece. The wing
CF struts are also the landing gear. This is enough to keep the wing straight.
My opinion:
It flys without any trim corrections and is easy to fly. It did all the aerobatics
that I master. Because of it's low weight it takes some effort for a clean landing though. With the new micro equipment
2,4 GHz a flying weight from about 30-40 gram can be reached.

AKAI - aerobatic
General:
A lightweight biplane
with a full fuselage designed for use with brushless 2-cell motors.
The fuselage is square for easy building. For weight reduction is the
canopy not a seperate clear plastic one. Instead the fuselage is
also the canopy. To complete the weight reduction there is only a middle
center piece in the fuselage and no bottum piece. This does not compromise
the strenght of the fuselage. I tapered the front of the plane like a oil
coil for more
styling. This is not
necessary but I like to break the square line's to give it a little more
design.
My opinion:
It was easy to build. Pay attention to keep things straight when you glue
the carbon rods for the wings. It is fun to fly but the plane does not
rocket straight up out of a hover. So I practice to hover at save
altitude.

RAFALE - pusher prop jet
General:
I allways like the jet designs like the rafale. I dont like to build for a
long time so this one is more like a silhouette. I never flown it because
I used my equipment for another plane.
My opinion:
I dont know its performance but I put it on the site so that maybe it help
someone to build his jet.

FLY BABY - fun flyer
General:
Something different than my other designs but I like it
though. I never build it because I was allready busy with a different
design. Maybe it is a good start point for the scratch builders who wants
to build something different. The plans are basic and square.
My opinion:
I dont know its performance but I put it on the site for who are interested in a
different plane than the average shocky.

REDBULL - shocky
General:
My answer for all the shocky's out there. I want to try if this is the
future for me. Easy building but I dont like the silhouette look.
My opinion:
I used my Axi motor for this plane but the total weight was with this
setup 320 gram. This was to much and it did not fly as good as I hoped. So
no more shocky's for me.

RAVEN - aerobatic
General:
A full fuselage and full airfoil wing aeroplane. Very scale like but
difficult to build. One of my best looking designs.
My opinion:
Looks great and fly's great. Unlimited power with the Axi motor on this
plane. It's not a 3D plane but you can do all the normal aerobatics with
it.

CHRISTEN EAGLE - aerobatic
General:
A full fuselage aeroplane. Very scale like but difficult to build. One of
my best looking designs.
My opinion:
I never had flown it but many people who have build it are very pleased
with it. So that is for me a very great compliment. Thank you for test
flying my planes and have the courage to trust my plans.

EXTRA 300 - aerobatic
General:
I'm a big fan of the Extra plane so I want one for myself. This is the
first with a found full fuselage and a full airfoil wing. No so easy to
build but it looks geat when it's done.
My opinion:
Looks great and fly's great. Unlimited power with the Axi motor on this
plane. It's not a 3D plane but you can do all the normal aerobatics with
it.

BOEING STEARMAN PT-17 - fun flyer
General:
I'm a big fan of bi-planes and the PT-17 is a very good looking one. The
full fuselage is not to difficult to build because there is no canopy.
My opinion:
The motor I used was not a power full one. There fore I almost crashed it
during a roll. The latest brushless motors should be ideal for this little
fun plane. You can also build a semi star engine for more realsim.
