RCPowers F-35 v2 (A free PDF plan)

by squishy | October 22, 2012 | (25) Posted in Projects

RC Powers has done it again with another free plan, the F35v2.  As always their focus is on beginners and noobs and this airframe is no different, it's perfect for those looking to get into the hobby successfully.  It flies stable and straight, looks scale in the sky, cuts through the wind with ease and has a lot of room for mods and power as you advance from beginner to advanced.  Things like spoilerions, rudders, airbrakes, EDF and any KF airfoil of your choice are easy to include in your build.  I choose a powerful setup, running a Greyson Hobbies Monsterjet spinning a 7x5 prop on a 2200mah 3 cell.  I used elevons for most of this flight and mixed in the ailerons for quick rolls when I wanted it.  With this setup I can drop in a 4 cell and a smaller prop for a lot more speed and flip switches to make it more maneuverable as I got use to it.  The best thing about this PDF plan, is that it's completely free and is well thought out and easy to build.  RCPowers also offers courses for those with no building or flying experience to go along with this airplane, it will teach you everything from what electronics to buy and how to use certain glues.  Download the plans here for FREE!

Okay and one more thing about how much did it cost in total: motor, servos, battery, etc.

That all depends on what parts you get and where you get them from, there's a nice master parts list on rcpowers website with links to everything from different vendors. You will want a 2200kv motor spinning a 6x4 prop but you can fit a 7x5 prop in there.

I made the F-22 v2 from RCPowers. Was quite pleased with the performance and handling. It was really smooth too. The Grayson Hobby motors are nice too. Good job.

Yup, 4 works just about right but it can be flow with three using just the elevions. Check out the RCP thread for info on many configurations, I think guys have already put an EDF in it.

Has anyone tried scaling this down to work on 20x30 inch dollar tree foam board? If so, how did it fly?

I couldn't understand how to even navigate that site . Not even to sign up .
But mostly I don't think I would bother . They want $49 for an ebook of how to build foam rc models
