Amigo II Magic (oz12998)

About this Plan

Amigo II. Radio control glider model. Wingspan 2.5m.

The original Graupner Amigo II (oz4428) dates back to 1966, and was a free flight plan at 80 inch wingspan. This here is a modern plan, drawn up from scratch in CAD, showing an enlarged version of the Amigo II, for RC (and with optional electric power pod) at 2.5 m wingspan.

Quote: "Dear Steve, the Amigo II was always my favorite and I grow up with this plane and during the time, now over 40 years of modelling, I had a few of them. They are the best 'thermal self-searchers', just let 'em go and they climb out! So the idea came up to rebuild it with new aerodynamics and as I often did in a magic-Version 125%! I developed a special engine attachment with good profile, so you nearly don't feel it and put a Leopard LC250-25 _ 9T 6pol 3750KV inside driving a 11x6 GM propeller. I flew it now a few times and it is 'forbidden good', trying to chase for thermal upwind, let the plane go and do nothing, it’s a free flyer and is always sucked away by up-winds. I also use it for FPV flying and build a second hatch to exchange when wanted. So as I always say: 'The best flights ever are still in front of us'. Matthias"

Note the main planfile here is a single PDF file with 17 sheets. This serves as a quick overview. For a more detailed (itemised) view, see the supplement file "named_sheets.zip" for the same plan, but here each plan sheet has a title of material and size. Then of course there is the full CAD file download in DXF format. Steve.
