@bveracka11 years ago It takes a lot of patience to build something like that, but it takes even more to make it fly! As a life-long balsa model builder, i have to tip my hat to this cool project!

@

@fartingdogmuffin96312 years ago Beautifully done! I am a modeler myself and that is a well built plane. Great job! Keep flying!

@

@robertsimmons795811 years ago Mad skills bro, mad skills indeed! I didn' t even think that was even possible. I was actually thinking if this was possible back in april of 2012 . ...Expand

@zklinski11 years ago Well done man! Always thought about making one of those an rc plane. 1

@

@allanegleston1310 years ago Somebody on another channel said that this would be impossible as the electric motor would be too heavy. Anything is possible in your world horatio, good job. Thumbs up. 2

@nobleroman56015 years ago Mann i remember those gliders were 10 cents in the mid 60s at any candyof course not with the rc controller, one good crash and s good night nurse for that plane. But all in all its a great little video. ...Expand

@brooksviewpro9 years ago Awesome, i always wanted to do a project like this for my grandson. Do you have instructions on the conversion process with parts list?

@

@jonathanerickson257512 years ago Where did you get the servoes from? Great plane though:

@

@gtech-hindi13 years ago How you have bind your dx transmitter with this rx? Is all 2. 4ghz tx are capable to bind 2. 4ghz rx?

@

@sNstRflyEr11 years ago You can get 1 cell packs at any local hobby shop, but for high quality hyperions you will prob have to order online.

@

@julianregnier976410 months ago Give us a parts list, i would love to recreate this!

@

@joewoodchuck38245 years ago Did you take the receiver out of the case, or did it come that way? It sure does move!

@

@mbunds10 years ago Very, very cool! Just curious; why did you select the chuck glider for this mod, instead of a rubber-band flyer?

@

@_x_-bf6cv10 years ago Attach lightweight chassis so that the landing was soft and not to disrupt the balanced model made of durable plastic chassis or rent a thin steel wire . ...Expand

@

@DaKooter6911 years ago Oh ok cool. Were can you pick one up at? At my local hobby store like hobbytown usa.

@

@dmithsmith58808 years ago That thing is sweet! The only thing i have to say is that it is way over propped, other then that cool build!

@

@DaKooter6911 years ago How is everything powered? You can' t have a battery pack cause that would be heavier than the plane right?

@

@mlke425812 years ago What a nerd. And i mean that in a good way. Good job! Very impressive.

@

@garagegeekguy12 years ago Where are they and what kind? I didn' t notice them on the plane.

@

@gerardodedios99049 years ago Hey can you listen the parts you used cus i' m trying to do this with a glider i made but dnt know where and what parts to get.

@

@abubakr199811 years ago Oo awesome how much you spend for build this plane.

@

@justeyFLY112 years ago Thats cool im going to try the same thing and hope it works.

@

@stickboyjones12 years ago Can you do a how to and or a double motor one.

@

@GR-rx7zq5 years ago Brush motor? I think brushless would be better.

@

@RCllamadude12 years ago No, 2. 4ghz receivers can only bind to transmitters of their own brand, and vice versa.

@

@AngryHybridApe3 years ago That motor and prop are overkill.
on something like that, id use micro drone parts.

@spacerconrad9 years ago You can usually tell the guys who get off searching for crash compilations and blooper reels. They get bored easily and some can' t help but comment >. ...Expand 1

@ammo19438 years ago Hi, why didn' t you fly it indoors? You seemed worried about the wind. 1

@teresamaflin5996last year Has anyone noticed that the glider is a chinese nock off of the guillow starfire?

@

@applegigabytes12 years ago Question? Why are you using " those servos" if you can call it, when u can get a normal one for 2$

@

@sNstRflyEr12 years ago Wanted to use all spare parts i already had. No $ spent for this conversion.

@

@TheDadofThem9 years ago Cmon! 6 1/2 mins of looking at it on a table top, and then 20 seconds of flight? 3

@philippeleblond216710 years ago My first conversion was something like that. Check outon my channel, we have a lot of fun with it and my dog. The guts i used came from a.

@

@sNstRflyEr11 years ago 1 cell hyperion battery, much lighter than the plane.

@

@sNstRflyEr11 years ago Nothing, i used all salvaged parts from other planes. Just bought the balsa glider, 5 bucks.

@

@PatinoTV11 years ago You have to buy it and build it yourself.

@evanizle1312 years ago Crap sorry i accidently hit inapropriate.

@flyinbryan16199 years ago Isit true that if this crashes straight into your brain you would dieded instantly?

@

@CharlesFlahertyB9 years ago It' s a 7 minute video about an rc airplane with only about 25 seconds of the plane flying.
thumbs down. 1

@bazdurrent31246 years ago Complete waste of time clearly very little in his life.

@MrFriedgreentomatos9 years ago Dear builder - have you not herd of cg or wing chord? Watch flitetest and learn something before a) wasting your time with stupid conversions and/or b) uploading equally stupid videos.
