Earlier this year, I posted a picture on the Flite Test Facebook page. The picture was a trainer that I designed and built with inspiration from a Cessna 270. While I was maddening it, I flew over a tree, freaked out and there it goes into the tree.
Upon posting the image someone asked if it was a Flite Test model and if it could be used with a FT Power Pod. Unfortunately Flite Test didn't come up with this design, but it is made with Flite Test building techniques. I took it as a challenge to get a Power Pod into the aircraft. Sadly it was too small. So I loaded up Google Sketch Up and modified my design to fit the FT Power Pod.
Here are the plans that I ended up with. (All measurements are in milimeters)
Luckily all the parts fit on one sheet of Dollar Tree foam board(the kind Flite Test use).
Foam board layout.

A video will be posted as soon as I get one complete!
Thanks and good luck building!
