Wow! As a child, my father and I ( and a bit later just me) built some rc planes back then. I always regretted getting rid of the transmitter and receiver in a garage sale. (Albeit at the time I wanted the money for a PSP) It was always a bit too expensive for me to get back into it but now I think I can scratch that itch again! Thanks!!
Ramble away good sir I am ashamed that it took me till now to discover your channel your videos are incredible and I am binge-watching them as we speak thank you so much for doing what you do you are incredible and doing things I could never dream of doing
Thanks, and welcome to the channel! The best part is, this IS something you could do, give it a try, worst that can happen is you fail, which is a 'bad' word for learning, then try again...we all start somewhere!!
@@microbuilder yes I know but I would just butcher them. I love all of RC so much especially micro and nano stuff and I've got time to play with it as our kid has moved away now just don't really have the means right now but yeah I love your vids and maybe one day I'll start building but thanks for the response I appreciate you taking time to chat with a nobody here thank you very much
@@michael5825 Hey we all start somewhere, I had only been flying RC for a handful of months before I got into micro planes, so I didnt know squat about either lol
Very interesting, enjoyable video. I have, in fact, dug out all my old scrap balsa and intend to attempt a build. I guess my next move is to source all the electrical gizmos I'm going to need. Greetings from the U.K. and thanks for uploading the video
Thank you! I tried using as few different online shops as possible to help keep shipping costs down, unfortunately there isnt a single shop that carries everything. Give it a try though, definitely worth it!
Hi, great build vid, 1:32:48 Sanding the wing tips underside, creates what is called washout, that lets the wing root, stall before the tip stall's great for countering the effect's of stall's....
Very very nice, thank you for loading this up. Answered many of my questions for building micro rc. Have one in progress, unfortunately i dont hit my self-set sub 3g. Maybe i'll get that fixed ;)
Very interesting video. I will definitely make a micro rc plane. One comment: at 33:50 for the V shape of wings I would sand the central part with sand paper glued on a perfect square block of hard wood. This will ensure a very flat surface on both wing's ends and good fit with desired angle (dihedral).
Nice tutorial! The difficulty is to order all these RC parts and check if they respond with each other. Seems it is better to buy a ready plane and use it for stripping the parts and put them into a self-made plane?
Hi, sorry for the late reply, I only just now saw your comment (thanks for the heads up, youtube lol). Buying everything separate does make things a little more difficult if youre not completely familiar with all the parts, thats why the Ultra Micro planes from E-Flite and ParkZone are so nice, as well as the KF606, theyre perfect parts donors!
Steam or even hot water can be used to bend the wood, if you completely soak ot you have to hold it in the desired shape until it dries however you can make some very nice curves this way. You can use pins or tacks to hold the workpiece in its shape.
Yes indeed, I like the idea of more people getting into the hobby...might make more companies build more micro RC parts, theyre so few and far between these days, unfortunately.
excellent i have been looking for something like this after seeing your other vids just what was needed suspect i will be watching it often in the future
Sorry fir commenting late, can the micro mite work on a linear servo reciver like the ones on the mini vapor (not the eflite night vapor those are to big) or will it be to heavy, i treud actuators but they are very frustrating
You might have to scale the plans up a little bit (I usually shoot for one gram of weight per one square inch of wing area for a wingloading), but yeah servos should work just fine
@ yes i actully dod, at 12 inches i took “profile guided mote” and made it smaller, im using rubber bands to permently move the control surfaces in the “push direction” and using string on the servo as a pull rod going oppsite on the tension, loosening the string makes the rubebr band work to move it
its not the co2 in your breath to speed up ca glue but the moisture. ;) creating a small chamber with hands and breath upon it helps the ca kicking in.
Cool beans. It must have took a lot of work to edit the video. While I have yet to build a mini, micro plane I have built several 400 mm wing span planes that are similar in sjze to the full sized Vapor. For kits or parts such as receivers & servos I have been using either Minimum RC out of China or I believe its called MicroAces out of Great Britian.
Thanks! And yeah, felt like it took more time to edit the video than it did build the plane lol Its frustrating that there doesnt seem to be a micro RC supplier that has everything (at least, not a US supplier). If I had the spare funds, I'd start one...not gonna get rich doing it, but it'd be a lot more convenient.
this is such a cool little build but i wish there were smaller servos those actuators looks incredibly fragile too fragile for my clumsy hands if the kf606 had an elevator it would have been so perfect i have one of those 2 channel flyers and going up and down was such a pain because your only choice was to rely on gravity which will takes more time compared to a real functional elevator
Nick Leichty makes servos in the .4 gram range, but theyre like 60 bucks a piece unfortunately, but hes got a good RC shop, I think I put a link for his store at the bottom of the list of links in the pinned comment. The linear servos are a good lightweight option, but yeah there's not much else in the way of ultra lightweight servos, short of hand making them. Couldnt agree more about the KF606 having a 3rd channel, but another option is the micro helicopters you can find on ebay. They use the same thrust differential system like the KF606, but most have a 3rd channel for forward/back control using a motor/prop as well. You could swap the motor for an actuator, or just use the motor and mechanically limit the range of motor so your elevator doesnt deflect to like 90 degrees.
For this particular receiver, you plug the lipo in and wait for the LED to start flashing rapidly (it flashes slowly at first for a few seconds), then turn on your transmitter with it in bind mode and the two should connect.
If youre using the Deltang RX you'd have to go with a Spektrum transmitter, as the Deltang uses the Spektrum frequencies/protocols. Unfortunately most RX/TXs these days use proprietary signals, so you gotta go with whatever is compatible. Anything from E-Flite/Parkzone should also work with the Deltang, as they use Spektrum frequencies as well.
Yes it is also I built a sky bug by raph I have several unique micro planes I built my latest is a gopher junior if you would like to see them I can email you pictures.
@microbuilder indeed, they did. I still have all the planes and some spare RX and TX from them in 2 and 3 channels. I'm getting my grandson into the hobby, so he will have some nice gear to start out with
@microbuilder nice I do still have one of those. I'm happy to see that folks are still doing the micro rc stuff. I bought a couple of kits from Buzzard Models on eBay that I assembled for some quick fun at the park last year. They have pretty good stuff.
@@1Epicdoom Yeah Buzzard Models has a good selection of stuff, plus I think theyre based here in my home state, so shipping is always nice and fast. I was searching aliexpress again and found a few other interesting toys...I need more money lol
1:45:50 why are we not hearing you trim the elevator.! do you see that all elevator inputs have to 'compete with' the trim that is wrongly built into the motor mount. d
The thrust angle isnt wrong, as I mentioned before, countless people have built this plane with these plans and it works just fine. The reason I was having troubles was because I didnt get the wing mounted flush with the fuselage so it ended up with a negative angle of attack.
information this design has issues. 1:39:06 the wing chord length and the horiz-stab span are over-large. the stabs should be a little farther from the wing/cg. the wing can be made LIGHTER, via plenty of careful sanding.! ideally, the root chords of the stabs should be equal in length. in the plan, the orientation of the vert-stab was 'backwards'. cg is supposed to be located at thirty percent of chord. when a model has a controllable elevator there is no need for vertical offset in the thrust line. however, IF a certain amount of fixed positive aoa at the wing is wanted, the angle should be built into the WING mount.! the pushrod is HEAVIER than it Could have been.! thanks to the use of cf and shrink tube, instead of wood and thread. d
This plane has been around a long long time (first shown in the Flying Models magazine in 1958 and modified over the years by Ralph Bradley, another long time RC designer/builder, winning a couple different awards with it), countless people have built/flown it with much success in multiple variations.
1:43:40 bla-bla-bla reality. any model aircraft should be made as LIGHT as is practical.! the process of doing so includes making EVERY part of a model aircraft as LIGHT as possible. distribution of mass (dom) happens; and a 'tuned' dom has to be PLANNED for. in an aircraft, it is CRITICAL that the amount of mass located aft-of the cg/c-m be Minimized in every practical way. d
I've built planes that weighed in at 2 grams ready to fly, I know about lightness, but its not the end-all-be-all, wingloading is, and the wingloading was fine. Could it be lighter? You bet. Was it 100% necessary? Nope. You must be real fun at parties lol

How do you bind your receiver to your transmitter?
For this particular receiver, you plug the lipo in and wait for the LED to start flashing rapidly (it flashes slowly at first for a few seconds), then turn on your transmitter with it in bind mode and the two should connect.
Ok thank you so much I love your videos ❤
I use radio frequency 😅

@@1Epicdoom Yeah Buzzard Models has a good selection of stuff, plus I think theyre based here in my home state, so shipping is always nice and fast. I was searching aliexpress again and found a few other interesting toys...I need more money lol
1:45:50 why are we not hearing you trim the elevator.! do you see that all elevator inputs have to 'compete with' the trim that is wrongly built into the motor mount. d
The thrust angle isnt wrong, as I mentioned before, countless people have built this plane with these plans and it works just fine. The reason I was having troubles was because I didnt get the wing mounted flush with the fuselage so it ended up with a negative angle of attack.
👍
Thanks!
cool :)
Thanks!
@@microbuilder no u! thanks for sharing the whole process
@@kangsterizer No problem, hope its useful!
information this design has issues. 1:39:06 the wing chord length and the horiz-stab span are over-large. the stabs should be a little farther from the wing/cg. the wing can be made LIGHTER, via plenty of careful sanding.! ideally, the root chords of the stabs should be equal in length. in the plan, the orientation of the vert-stab was 'backwards'. cg is supposed to be located at thirty percent of chord. when a model has a controllable elevator there is no need for vertical offset in the thrust line. however, IF a certain amount of fixed positive aoa at the wing is wanted, the angle should be built into the WING mount.!
the pushrod is HEAVIER than it Could have been.! thanks to the use of cf and shrink tube, instead of wood and thread. d
This plane has been around a long long time (first shown in the Flying Models magazine in 1958 and modified over the years by Ralph Bradley, another long time RC designer/builder, winning a couple different awards with it), countless people have built/flown it with much success in multiple variations.
1:43:40 bla-bla-bla reality. any model aircraft should be made as LIGHT as is practical.! the process of doing so includes making EVERY part of a model aircraft as LIGHT as possible.
distribution of mass (dom) happens; and a 'tuned' dom has to be PLANNED for. in an aircraft, it is CRITICAL that the amount of mass located aft-of the cg/c-m be Minimized in every practical way. d
I've built planes that weighed in at 2 grams ready to fly, I know about lightness, but its not the end-all-be-all, wingloading is, and the wingloading was fine. Could it be lighter? You bet. Was it 100% necessary? Nope.
You must be real fun at parties lol
