 A few weeks ago for the first time in thirty years I bought some balsa wood to build some very basic models with my eight year old.... We downloaded some plans for a Sopworth camel and adapted them to make a model with stick fuselage but it is to scale and I ordered a 3v micro motor off amazon for £1.23
And here it is....
The whole thing cost less than a fiver.... I know real modellers will tell me it's not got a correct wing profile to create lift and it's probably too heavy for the motor.... But that's so not the point....the point is the fun we had finding the plans and making it....
Did it fly... Errrrrr.... That's not the point either
