FAQ's
I used the standard small "9 gram" servos like I use on everything. I used a 2200mah 3s and a 3200mah 3s but It could carry a 1000mah or even a 4000mah. The motor was an eflight park 400 with 18 amp esc. but that motor is way expensive compared to the generic ones.

"$5 Trainer" original video www.youtube.co....
I apologize that the title of the referenced video is misleading as the cost of materials in not $5. When I originally made it, I only had to buy a $5 sheet of foamboard and all the other materials I found laying around my parents house. The name has since sorta sunk in and I'm not sure I can undo it.
I made the "$5 trainer" while on Christmas vacation at my families house home from college. I wanted to do a project with my little brother. I had been doing some rather tedious and complicated projects (chainsaw plane and I put an autopilot on my big flying wing but didn't make a video about that) and I wanted a break and to do a simple project to get back to my roots and demonstrate that you don't need to do a whole lot to make an airplane.
I was surprised by how many people requested a build video, because I don't particularly like watching build videos, though there are interesting insights and tips, they are just long and I'd rather be making my ideas come to life (or actually working on my degree).
But I didn't feel like rebuilding that same plane, partly because I don't still have that blue wonder motor but also because I would rather spend my time making new things.
So this video is a new airplane design, but made with the same materials and techniques as were used on the "$5 Trainer."
Hope I can inspire others and provide insights on my work flow. This is a fun method because you can make the fuselage have whatever cross section you want and make things look kind of scale. As opposed to a hollow square foam tube.
