This is the landing gear I designed: sandwich the landing gear wire between popsicle sticks and Zip tie them together...DIY MEGA :)

 

 

 

I traced out the tail fin and cut it out of Foam board

 

 

 

I used the same technique for the wing: I traced it out. I made it 3D by putting a 50% score cut down the middle, adding the base, Then adding a spar...also made of foam. I also like the non-stall Wingtips. Wing design by me!

 

 

Here are the electronics (scavenged from another plane)

 

 

 

All together now!

 

 

Looks cool with balsa and foam put together!
