Similar, but I built a new fuse.
The wing isn't rubberbanded on and it is mounted closer to the Thrust line of the engine.
It also has Vertical stabilizers! :thumbup:

It Worked! :banana: :spin:
And it worked well if I don't say so myself (What does that mean anyways?) :unsure:
2 flights after a change of the glow plug and the engine won't idle sometimes but all I need is for it to last at combat! :thumbup:
I think it's the fuel, I'm at the bottom of the barrel! :thumbdown:

:bigplane: FLIES GREAT!! I met Johnny J. at the field today to test fly the Orange Crush 2. :spin: No, It didn't Crash. Johnny flew it quite well. I hope Johnny is not out to sea ( off shore work) on the next Combat.

As some of you may know the Orange Crush 2 broke apart this weekend after a casual landing. Nothing major. :D
It is now repaired better than before. Working out the defects in the design and added better landing gear in the process. :thumbup:

Here's a look at the new gear!
