I woke up, went on google to look for the sbach 342. I looked at it and said to myself, I'll make one of these.lol
So I opened corel draw and started drawing. Then printed the outcome and started my build. I'm talking about the blue plane.

Those who don't know my history in this hobby, when I FIRST started to build a plane, I wanted it to look like a factory one, so I used the beast 3d design (decals) as inspiration and put it on a yak 54.
Yeah, you won't believe it was my VERY VERY first plane I designed.
but the first time, I took 2 days to build and 4 seconds to crash LOL. too sensitive, it did a loop and head crash- total loss.

So for this indoor period I wanted to do the same build to remind me of the old times. It's not finished yet but I took pictures of where I stopped. (the orange and black plane)

The other plane is the slick 360 I bought on Hobbyking, only fuselage and wings. If you want to save money, I'll advise you to look at the nice fuselage and wings they sell and finish the builds on your own.

ENjoy
