Ex-265 Homemade Experimental

210 RhinoFire265  3.9 years ago

The Ex-265 is the result of someone's quarantine boredom. The Ex-265 is a homemade airplane capable of aerobatic flight. It is made mostly of Medium Density Foam and stainless steel! ... ... ... ... ... How To Fly: pull trim bar all the way to the bottom. Throttle to 100% and wait for the tail wheel to lift off the ground. Pull back on the yolk and have fun! Note: for faster takeoff roll to either side of the aircraft instead of waiting, then pull up.

    Hey @LastManStanding! Building a custom wing is relatively simple. It’s hard to describe so you can take apart my wing then put it back together or reload the airplane! Get one fuselage piece and face towards the aircraft. Then make it a custom shape: hard, hard, circular, circular. Then get another fuselage piece make it the same height as the first piece, make it as wide as the first piece is long. Make it as long as you want but note that you have to add a piece behind it with a 0 tall height on the back. I hope that makes sense. Good luck!
