Spars Go into compression.....spars belong in the top of the wing Then you have room for the servers on the bottom And a spar...can go all the way almost to the tips.... My jeep is really stiff Has strapping tape and spas Floats like a feather.... Doesn't like humidity because it doesn't have any camber in the flaps
I used to fiberglass spar and did they almost the entire top surface of wing the then I added fiber tape top and bottom so the top surface goes into compression and the bottom surface goes into tension .. On my cheetah..
I tried to keep my build as simple as possible but there would be lots of ways of improving the flight characteristics of this model. Thanks for the feedback.
A few years back I made a very similar thing using the old multiplex fox chuck glider which was quite a bit smaller. It turned out to be a really fun easy build and easy thing to fly. I always wondered if anyone would ever release a cheap and cheerful EPP chuck glider that was a bit more generous in size.. So I guess here it is... Now what I'm wondering is if anyone will release one with a 2m wing span for $100 or less... Wouldn't that be awsome!!!
I modified an Albatross FX707S 1.2 metre chuck glider that slope soars really well. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xuqOiFce_mw.html there are a few build videos you might like to look at on this channel as well?
