Nothing fancy, but scaled for the brick ........I dont want to step on anyones toes by posting code for another micro. ........ So only the pictures for now.....

 

I think Trish will like the flowers from my garden !

 

Sharp looking Bruce.
The Illusion sure is a nice looking plane.

 

Picture perfect! Very nice plane and Garden Bruce
The code would be awesome! We appreciate the consideration but you are more then welcome to post and share with everyone We would like to fly this ourselves
Thank you
Mark and Trish

 

I do love the flowers ewo. Thank you for taking pictures of them but why is that plane in the way? lol. No, seriously, great job. It looks like it's going to be a great flyer!

 

Now whoever seen an Illusion that didnt involve flames of some sort ?

 

Nice!
The flames really bring it to life.
Have you been able to fly it yet?

 

AWESOME!

 

Looks just like the one we used for the Aircraft Icon here on the Phlatform

 

Thank you for the compliment

You are correct Bob ! The flames template is yours ! Thank you !
I got these templates several years ago from rc groups.... And it is by far my favorite
set of flames . i have used the file many many times.

the thread i got the files from is here .! http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=483664

 

Yep ! That shure looks familiar there now dont it !

 

Any word on flight reports?
We are thinking we should add a micro section to the aircraft threads.
What do you guys think?
Mark and Trish

 

I like the idea of a micro section. Good idea.

Yeah Bruce have you had a chance to fly it yet?

 

I like the" IDEA " as well !

Yes the micro Illusion has flown, And it really did do quite well even with the limited throw on the ailerons. All in all im happy with the performance. But it could be better if i went with the twin servo ailerons and ditched the torque rods and bell crank....

Sharon is in Ft. Lauderdale tonight . getting on the boat for the Bahamas tomorrow. so i will try my son for video. Maby in a bit !

 

Sorry for the shiney depron. But it does show it flys pretty well ........
This is without the SFG's Theye will be tried tomorrow barring wind and rain

 

Nice flying Bruce! Looks great in the air
Thanks for sharing the video boyz
Mark and Trish

 

Cool Bruce.
I know what you mean about the roll rate. I got an extra servo for my Micro Ripper's aileron but haven't tried it out yet. My stuff is tied up in the Phlatstang right now LOL. I may just need to get another 6400 brick.

 

Thank you Brothers.......

I got to fly the Illusion again today , But this time with all the devices. Sfg's and Brakes.......
Its not the same airplane i flew the other day. Its much better !!!!!

I am making a couple changes to the file then i will post the thing in the new Micro section along with the graphics files for the flames and the canopy..... With Marks permission i presume. :?

Waiting for the sun to go down a little for another try at video....... Maby it wont be so darned Bright this time !!

 

Bruce sorry if there has been a misunderstanding about posting plans here.
Your always welcome to share plans, provided they were originally posted as a free plan
We just need to be sure that people are not posting plan sets copied from a commercial kit.
We are looking forward to the updated version, but I wanted to ask you what do you think is making it fly better they brakes? and what does Sfg mean?
Thanks Bruce
Mark and Trish

 

There isnt any confusion here on my part. I know the rules.

I think it flys better because of both the Sfg,s and the brakes. theye help it slow down and track really straight
Sfg = Side force generators. It seams to me that the addition of the devices has increased the roll rate a bit as well as the tail surfaces. Its just more fun to fly and looks cooler in the air to boot........

It is flying much more like its big brother now than it was before !!!

Small video added

 

Thanks Bruce
Your right it is flying a lot like its big brother.. Looks great!
You would not think the little changes would make such a big difference but they sure seem to.
