Twin Engine Arrow - Maiden/Speed Run - Free Plans

The Faster Arrow Project:

So, I have been playing with the FT-Arrow for a while now, and love it.  I have been having a blast, flying LOS and FPV with it.  From racing, to fast flying, and even FPV combat, this plane is awesome.

I started out with the standard 3S setup that FT recommended, and it was fun at first.

Then, at CFL FPV, there was a wing race.  I qualified, but noticed that the other wings were way faster than mine.

Had to change that.

So, I went to all of the vendors at the event buying up motors that could possibly make it go faster.

I ended up choosing the Emax 2205 2600kv motor.

It didn't seem that fast with the standard 6" prop I was flying, so I decided to step down to a 5".

I tried, twin, tri, and quad blade 5040 HQ props, and they all were fast, but the quad blade sounded the coolest.

So, I threw it back up in the air, and was as fast, if not faster than the other planes at the event, now.  

Unfortunately, I didn't have a chance to win, because my fpv gear fried on launch.  But, the plane was a definite eye turner at that event.

Well, last week, my Arrow got beat again in a speed race against a much bigger, more powerful wing built by a friend of mine. 

WE CAN'T HAVE THAT......

So, I decided to build a twin engine FT-Arrow

Set up:

Emax 2205 2600KV Motors

UBAD 30A Angry Beast ESCs

UBAD 1800 mah 75c 4S Battery

Lemon 7ch Stabilizer Rx

Spektrum Dx9 Tx

It had a stabilizing rx, which didn't seem to work that well...

It also had differential thrust, and once I played with it some more, turned out to be somewhat useful.

Here is the Maiden, and I will link the free plans below.  Let me know what you think......
