Value Planes Seagull with 4 motors

[Michael]

I already built one of these, and I have been flying it for 4 seasons. I've flown it off the runway, grass, water and snow. It handles wind easily.

See the link for my original construction thread, including a few modifications.

In this thread I will not post all construction, nor any of the previously posted modifications, but I will post any new modifications, and the 4 motor setup I plan. The motors will be mounted in scratch-built nacelles on the wings.

These photos are of the model that I am currently flying.

The first photo isn't a modification, but simply to show that I've started construction.

The other photos show that I've enlarged the battery hatch to make it easier to place and take-out batteries from the fuselage.

I used a couple scrap pieces of plywood to hold the enlarged hatch together.
