Description
1:53 Scale boost glider. Booster uses two 18mm motors in a BT 60 tube. While the canard mid tube is present it isn't functional. I added a canard close to the nose to get the model to fly vertical during boost. Even so it arcs over and ends up horizontal at ejection. The boost glider (BT-55) separates and a canard is activated to give the glider a nose up attitude. With a host of unsuccessful launches and one successful launch there is still work to be done, but the model has potential and I like the look and engineering challenge.
