When strung up to the ceiling, the plane will "fly" in circles under the power of its propeller. If there's enough interest I may release other aircraft including some actual prop-jobs, maybe even twin-engine. Like it if you want more.
Watch it fly with short propeller, slower: https://youtu.be/3tPDYEYpzAM
Long propeller, faster / bigger loops: https://youtu.be/QQKlanOFjk4
*Materials:*
1) Motor + switch + battery case ($12 for a set of 5 each): http://a.co/elPTgfI
2) Steel rod ($7.87 for a set of 20), 50mm length: http://a.co/7UfjWzZ
[You do not need the rods if using the "Shaft and Prop", but I think the rods work better.]
3) M3 screws, 5-10mm x 2
4) Two AA batteries
5) Soldering iron, flux, solder
6) Transparent filament to suspend plane, ~100cm
7) Screws to mount axis to ceiling
8) Glue, either E6000 or cyanoacrylate.
9) Hot glue gun
A note on printing: The body + wings part should be printed upside-down and rotated 45 degrees to fit on a 20x20cm build pla
