Channel Wing 2015 – No Wings !

Based on the early 20th century work of Willard Custer, this is my Channel Wing. A previous version flew well some years ago..so I wanted to build one slightly bigger, using the same sort of motors.

Length: 13″, 33cm
Wingspan: erm, 0″
Receiver: 2 channel Interactive Toy Concepts
Motors: Cut down ducted fans from a Radio Shack Twin Turbine, with 6mm motors
Rudder modification: 450 turns of 40AWG, neo magnet, wires connected to +Left and +Right of the motors
Lipo: 1S 150mAh
