Howdy folks. I have been trying to build a remote controlled firefly for a couple of years. Today I was able to preform initial tests and it does indeed fly. Still have some fine tuning to do before I make a flight video but as of today Ol' Patience my K-01 can really fly

Ooooh, shiny. Let us know how she goes!

Did you put extra glue on the primary buffer panel?

I was thinking about having a servo pull a release pin on the primary buffer panel so I could make it fall off on cue.

Is your thrust from the engine nacelles? Only, or also other propulsion?
