I decided to toss together a new F4 Jet Cat, but this one is 70% the size of the current kit version.\u00a0 That makes it just over 8″ wing span and 12″ in length.\u00a0 I printed out some tissue and stuck it down with spray adhesive.\u00a0 I took it outside this afternoon and, with a couple of little tweaks, I got some rather stable, but short flights.\u00a0 I just don’t have the room here at home to give it much power (the trees are hungry!) \u00a0\u00a0 I’ll take it to our last outdoor contests (I broke my good Ohka) – maybe I can get up to 20 seconds.<\/p>\n

The wings are 1\/16″ sheet and the rest is 1\/32″ sheet, except for a thin 3D-printed reinforcement for the nose (and a sliver of carbon fiber for the fuselage).<\/p>\n
