“long enough to accommodate the tank and throttle servo” Where did you attach the throttle servo?

Thank you for a job well done and sharing it with the world!
I’ve been looking for a giant scale A-10! Is there a kit available?
I live in the States and would dearly love to have one. Please send me the link for more information. I’ll thank you in advance for the help and Video.

Wow, I had an ultralight plane that weighed less than that behemoth and only 100 cc single engine.

I first flew RC and joined AMA in 1984, (AMA membership No. 139693). And, I’m still at it. My first airplane was a Sig Kadet Mark II. fThe Kadet Mark II was my first build and trainer.

The Sig family provided me with thrills, laughter, tears and satisfaction over the past 40 years. What a Blessing the Sig family and the SIG Mfg. Co. has been to me.

Thank you Sig!

Very well thought out and engineered. As said above CG needs to be addressed, this is what causes the rocky motion from side to side. Fun to watch the video!!

A better design for a Sub-Plane would be to get rid of the pontoons and go to a seaplane design called a flying boat. The fuselage bottom is a planning hull with a step like the pontoons. It is easier to build, less complex and less drag.

Ask any r/c sub guy, they’ll tell you to use any longer wave length r/c frequency, i.e. 27 mHz, 72mHz or 75 mHz. They all work fine in fresh water. DO NOT use them in salt water.
