RC Donkey - Details and Dimensions

This video shows the main dimensions of the EA Donkey RC airplane design. It uses the standards building techniques of the Armin Wing and the foamboard fuselage tube, plus landing gear and cargo bay door. You can email me any additional questions at [email protected]
Parts:
Micarta aka FR4 G10 fiberglass reinforced plastic
One source is ePlastics, with great prices but outrageous shipping costs. See this link but do shop around before you order.
Carbon Fiber Plate
I usually buy this from eBay, what I assume to be cutoff scraps from somebody else's larger projects. The 2mm seems to be the most versatile although sometimes you will want 1mm, or 3mm for when real stiffness is needed. Search "carbon fiber plate" or click
TapeBrothers.com
Carton sealing tape aka packing tape.
Outdoor vinyl tape
Servos
Here is a digital metal gear servo I like to use where good speed, acceptable torque, and reliability is important, especially for the elevator and ailerons. Many, many other good options do exist.
Motor
Any decent brushless motor that delivers 300w or better power is OK but this is the one I like. It has plenty of power, is reasonably efficient, and turns a manageable prop - not too big not too small.
