Man, that looks like alot of fun. I've scratch built MANY balsa planes in my life, these RTF foam planes have taken over though. I haven't built a balsa plane in years. I need to change that.
This is absolutely breathtaking! Not just the design but also the decals and choice of colours. To me as an absolute beginner, this looks like the right size and indeed not breaking the bank. Not too sure about the 3D printed parts, tough so if you might have any suggestions how to hand-build those parts, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for sharing this with us! It's very much appreciated!
Hello, thank you very much. I think this plane had one 3d printed part. This is intended to provide cooling to the ESC. It can also be left out and just make an hole in the fuselage
@@JamesRCPlaneTech I use a DJI action 2 camera. It is a very wonderful thing indeed. Super good image stabilizer, you can freely put it on a plane with a gas engine and there is really very stable picture. And most importantly, this camera is very small compared to the GOPRO itself. A good example here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fbCV8xnm3UI.html
Incredible to say the least, you have a fortune invested in tools and equipment but yet you provide the plans for free, what laser do you use? Very nice . Pat
Hi Marko, Amazing work, i really want to learn from you, it was my dream to make my own RC from childhood, can you tell me do you give any training to build RC ?
While adding sheeting/making the wing structure you should pin the win to the table. Otherwise you will have introduce inevitable (and uncontrollable) twist/bend in it.
Hello Of course, the main thing is experience, I have covered hundreds and hundreds of planes. But to get a beautiful result, it is good to use a heat blower. It must definitely have an adjustable temperature, and before using the blower, all edges of the covering film must be properly closed
Hello Marko, Thank you for this recent Project, Would you let us know what model of Laser cut machine do you use for cutting the hardwood and Balsa wood?
Once again, amazing stuff Marco I have a question about the glue you use, EPS I think it was 🤔 what are the benefits of using it? Also, do you have a trick to glue hinges like that without getting glue in the hinge which makes it work poorly?
I use EPS foam glue because it does not create a sharp glue edge. The surface of the wing remains very beautiful and even. Gluing the hinges - that's one carving, isn't it? I usually use a small drop of oil on the hinge to prevent sticking after gluing. In addition, I recommend moving the rudder after 3-4 hours of drying, then the glue has not yet solidified and the end result will be very good.
Hi, Wingloading 36g/dm2. The wing has proper I spars and torsion. In reality, the wing is very, very strong and there is definitely no risk of breakage
Complimenti x le tue opere vorrei qualche dritta su come applichi il termoretraibile su un ala tutta rivestita in obeche, senza creare Bolle, io ho solo il ferrino. Ti ringrazio e di nuovo COMPLIMENTI x i tuoi lavori
