After recently building the FT Sparrow and seeing how easy it was I decided to take on the FT Mini Arrow.
I like Josh Bixlers designs and the way he sets out his build videos.
I will keep this brief as there is already heaps of information out there on this little wing.
I downloaded and printed the tiled plans, stuck them together and cut them out.


I cut out the foam and built some wings and things.

Then stuck it all together.

I fitted some electronics and there she is, ready for a maiden.
I think I may have gone a little overkill with the motor.
I fitted a 2205 2700kv motor and 20amp ESC.
If I hang it from my hand, this thing wants to go vertical at half throttle.
I think it is going to be quite fast.
I am excited and a little bit nervous...... ok a lot nervous.
But hey I don't need to use full throttle.... who am I kidding, off course I do.

Hopefully maiden tomorrow if the weather allows.
Then if all goes well I will throw on some FPV gear, that's when the fun really begins.
