This is the Maiden of my FT Mini Scout.
It's my first RC flight ever!
Too much wind and a hard winter surface is not a good combination for a student pilot.
Fortunately this plane takes a lot of damage and is easy fixable.

A later video of that plane with onboard view can be viewed here:

Flown in February 2017.

----------

The aircraft design is by FliteTest.

It's a scratch build.

I used all the suggested electronics except a 30a instead of the proposed 12a ESC.
My 12a ESCs are overheating all the time especially when enclosed in the fuselage.

*Setup*
Motor: 2204 2300kv (5€)
ESC: 30a (8€)
Prop: 6x4,5 or 6x4 or 5x4 (2,50€ for 10)
Battery: SLS X-CUBE 850mAh 3S1P 11,1V 30C/60C (9€)
Servos: SG-50 5g (5€ for 2)
Radio: FlySky fs-i6 (45€ incl. Receiver)

All electronics are from aliexpress.com or banggood.com.
The waterresistant foam board by FliteTest can be bought at eBay for 3€ a sheet.

That makes a total of about 80€ to start the hobby. And 10€ for every additional plane. The electronics, except the cheap servos, are interchangeable. They are swappable. Just remove them from one plane and put them in the other.

The plane got the paintjob with Montana Gold spray paint.
