Scratch Built Snowspeeder!!!!!

[RADRICH]

WOW,...my son and I are diehard SW fans but you take the cake. He's gonna flip when he sees this! Please, please, please make sure you get good video of your powered flights. This is exactly what I need to get my son into the building aspect of the hobby!! Best of luck with this! (If it works, maybe George Lucas could set you up with a production company!!!)

I did throw this across my basement before the power system was added and it flew fine but of coarse I forget to check where the cg was. I will try to make another glider version first... thanks/ John C.

Gotcha, now I see them. Makes sense. Can't wait to see it. If it flies good be ready for some company to start knocking them off overseas like with what happened to the flying hydro boats.

RADRICH... Thanks for the nice comments. Besides flying RC planes I always wanted to work for ILM doing prop layouts or even sweeping floors would be nice. This is just fun stuff for any age and keeps the kid in all of us!!!!

JeeUm... that is just to funny!!!!

Yeah, have to agree with the above, don't publish plans or drawings if your planning to produce this yourself later.

Good luck for the maiden

MalaysianFlyer.... I think it would be great to offer up a series of flyable Star Wars ships, but Im sure there would be no profit after paying out the royalties . After watching all the makings of SW..... I know this is one job that would be a blast to wake up to everyday!!! Well, I better get back to home remodeling........
