Built a foamy biplane out of Depron ( last few sheets I had from years ago ). I used a few 1920's British passenger planes as inspiration, and designed as I built it. Lining up the four motors took a bit of time, as well as shaping the landing gear.
Flew it in Windsor on Sunday and was pleasantly surprised at how well it flew. There is a lot of drag, so not fast. However, it has plenty of power for verticle playing and rolls well.
Power is old HK Lacaster motors/esc's fed from a 3 cell 2200 lipo

Marc;
I really like your 21st Century recreations of the 1920's and 30's multiengine airplane designs. Simple and effective.
