FOAMIE DEPARTMENT
Welcome to the WALLY WORKS!
The following foamie E-planes are as simple to make as some ARF's. Some start with Walmart (thus the name) supplies or toy foam gliders as your wing cores. They can be built for as little as $20 (batteries and other electronics not included of course) with simple hand tools and minimum building skills. (Can you draw a straight line with a ruler and follow instructions?)
Durable enough to learn on and advance your skills without ending up with a pile of kindling and bent motor shafts! (and they look cool too!) Our mission is to design the best bang for the buck using proven flight concepts with inexpensive supplies along with simple construction methods.
Our foamie designs so
far are all pushers. Most crashes are nose first and you don't want the most
expensive parts in harms way. Also, pushers are more efficient due to no
prop wash striking the wing or fuse.
o
Top surface of wings
are designed to remain as clean as possible for best performance.
o
Folding prop for much
cleaner glide performance and breakage prevention on planes designed to
thermal.
o
Shock absorbing
"power pod" and impact releasing features prevent damage to the
spendy electronics.
o
Use of inexpensive
motors and long duration NiMh cells for minimal start-up costs.
o
Are easily upgradeable
with higher power motors, gear drives or brushless for increased performance.
o
Interchangeable power
pods for less redundancy of expensive electronics.
o Can be repaired if necessary at the in case of "severe" damage.
And if you like durability without having to build, don't forget to check out the Carbon Falcon slow flyer portable ARF flying wing above. This ripstop and CF tubing model just may be the first indestructible indoor and park flyer ever! No control surfaces, 2 minute setup/teardown, not even any foam or balsa to break and flies like nothing you've seen before!
=JSF= JET STREET FIGHTER TM :
=JSF= STEP-BY-STEP CONSTRUCTION GUIDE IS NOW FREE! AVAILABLE HERE
Who says that slow flyers have to only fly slowly and be flimsy antiques? We've got a multi-role Jet Street Fighter for you!
A sheet foam stealth jet-like fun flyer design that will get out and move as well as fly slow using that GWS IPS gear you may already have. Plus it's strong enough to upgrade to a geared 300 or light brushless for real jet like performance!
WALLY WING:
Not all flying wings are created equal! The Wally Wing starts with a $5 foam toy glider and becomes a nearly indestructible, high performance, soaring, stunting, state-of-the-art speed 400 flying wing you can build for less than $20 (less gear).
POLLY PUSHER TM -1/02 Polly wins
2nd place in the Ezone foamie forum design contest! Ezone
contest entry #6
This plane uses the same toy glider foam wing
as above but is a polyhedral design with twin CF booms and an inverted V
tail. A real versatile floater! Learn all about it from the
complete review.
