Re: .049 powered Pong Two
I have not built one yet. I'd like to though. There are a couple flight vids on You Tube and it looks like a great flying little plane.getback wrote:Sdjjadk, Looks like a really easy flyer , have you built / flown one of these? I have some RC planes and stuff that I need to get in the air:lol:Eric

If I build one, I'll build the wing without dihedral and add ailerons. Add a throttle like you said and it would be a fun little aerobat!

Shawn -
With the current semi-symmetrical airfoil, I would be inclined to retain some dihedral, perhaps 1" to 1.25" under each tip. With a long wing and 0" dihedral, the wings will appear to be drooping. As it is drawn, the Pong looks a little like a great flapping buzzard.
But, if you're looking for a bit more pizzazz, you'll need to knock about 6" off the span. The current area is 317; reducing the span to 38.5" will reduce the area to 275 --- with less span, your roll rates will be better. Probably, the stab/elev should be reduced in area to around 60 sq. in.
However, at 275 sq. in., the reduced Pong is still a pretty good sized plane for the .049.
