I'm sure not going to argue with a $50 build. I like the We Recycle aspect of it, and you get 10/10 for innovation. Spend another $20 on an RC18T battery pack to lower your CG and you'll see a big impreovement in stability, at the expense of runtime. A big part of this hobby is bending your head around solving problems with available materials, and you've done a great job of that with this build. It's all about using what you've got. Later on, you can worry about getting different stuff. |
