Thanks for the motivation. Extended-wing Lazy Bee Special sitting in my shop for about 10 years. Framed, but never covered. Time to dust it off and finish it!!!!
Well, I didn't flew it till ESC cut the battery out yet, but I estimate 15min with 1300mAh 3S pack, and more than 25 min. with a 2300 mAh. The Lazy Bee don't glide very well, so you must keep the props running all the time, including aproaching for landings!
Funny how the fuselages get bigger as the radio gets smaller...I flew things this size forty years ago when the radio receiver took a 22 volt battery! and the rudder was moved by a large wound up piece of elastic...my first 3 channel radio gear weighed 18 ounces - not grams! Took a 108" Expo to lift it....
Hi! I'm from the future! I wanted to let you know that I enjoyed your e-voo build log. I read along, thanks to google translate, which allowed me to quickly translate your Portugese into a digital version of English, but it's close enough to get by with. Cool, huh? The future is really weird. I hope you enjoyed the time of your Lazy Bee build. I am in the process of gathering parts for one now, as we speak here in the future. Maybe I will write a log of it... Maybe I will.
You can look for the Cox Lazy Bee, but it is powered by a .049 cox engine, and its is the same size this one shown in the video, made of foam. The plans are available in RCGroups, if you're planning to scratchbuild a bigger one.
Awesome that this was done 15 years ago thanks for sharing your setup details to.

Yes, you can have a Lazy Bee as first model, since it is very stable and slow flyer, and it can perform some basic maneuvres (rolls and loops).

They are the Trexler Balloon Wheels.
You can find distributors at their home page.
Bom dia Orson, por acaso você tem ainda a lista ou uma quantidade aproximada de madeira balsa usada para esse projeto?
What sort of run time do you get, just cruising around like that at half throttle ?
hi how much flite time do you get each flite ?
Where do you find those big fat tires? They are wonderful!
TREXLER big fat balloon wheels are on eBay occasionally.
Beautiful bird!
Well, bee.
:)
where can i get one?
(i have 2 .45 engines and a .61 engine)
i want a nitro park flier and this looks like one.
Actually, I think you'll only find the Cox Models Lazy Bee, made on foam, if your going ARF. Try looking on your Local Hobby Shop. ;)
is this a trainer?
how much for an arf?
slow slow flyer, just what i needed in the beginning still do i reckon
