Volantex Sport Cub S2 (400mm wingspan) - Maiden Flight

A little brother of the Sport Cub 500 with a wingspan 4 inches (100mm) smaller. It looks so identical that I would not be surprised if they just scaled down the CNC program that made the form molds for the bigger Sport Cub. Unlike the bigger plane, this one has twin 7mm brushed motors on the wing and uses different motor thrust to navigate. It has no movable control surfaces. There is no motor in the cowl and the large center prop just freewheels in the wind. The transmitter is 2 channel and each stick only moves on one axis. The plane has gyro stability on YAW by manipulating RPMS of the 2 motors to keep it going straight. There is no attempt at artificial pitch stability. The roll axis is kept level naturally by the high wing configuration and plenty of dihedral. Winds were 1-6 mph, which is more than enough to make one of these difficult to fly, I strongly recommend that any plane controlled by the thrust of twin motors be flown on wind-free days. A calm morning or evening is best. The plane flew as advertised, but nothing to get excited about. Kinda tricky to get it flying level in the ever-changing light winds. I plan to modify it someday to be more like a standard RC airplane with actual control surfaces and one main motor. Happy flying!
