I have been building a better design for the easystar, more like the orginal just a little shorter.
I also made some test for the Glider as well:
I thought it was possible to make the fuselage and maybe sell it... But I found out that it's too much work, so price will just be too high. I hope it will give people some ideers and i'm ready to help out if there would be any questions.
I know this is Easystar. (EASY T REX "small brain big mouth"). front 4 cm shorter than original.
About Easyglider its still under con.. much more work.
David:
There will be an inner carbonfiber box glued to the foam then the fuselage in carbonfiber will be able to bed fixed with small bolts.
if you remove the belly pan (or make it removable) you will cause a very week area where it attaches to the fuselage boom.
You will have to repair the break at every hard landing.
It is not a good idea to make some parts of the fuselage particularly strong and stiff and leave the remainder soft and flexible.
I can understand that you want the plane more versatile. I think it's the wrong plane though. The Easy Star is nearly perfect. Any change of it in a certain direction will produce disadvantages in other areas.
The only way is a new plane!! Just be patient :-)
have fun

Also I believe the nose is unnecessarily long. The cameras are so heavy they dont need to be placed far front, long nose worsens dynamic stability on pitch, and there is plenty of space under the wing anyway.BTW this is EasyStar not EasyGlider.
