@Maximum_777 Год назад

I think the simplest improvement you could do is reduce drag, there's a bunch of little places, around bolts, your rudder pedals and boots, various connection points for things, etc, where I think little 3D printed more aerodynamic caps and things like that could be implemented to reduce drag. Every little thing counts when it comes to drag like this and you probably could help your battery life a decent bit with simply reducing as much drag as possible.

@GRAHAMAUS Год назад

It also seems to fly at a high angle of attack, which must be super draggy. Not sure how that can be overcome -- move the CG rearwards (or should that be forwards) a little? A flatter attitude would do wonders for the performance.

@BlackCatRedScarf Год назад

I guess it is probably better to build something more efficient like an EZ Long to increase the range and flight time.

@mm-hl7gh Год назад

the drag gets more important on higher speeds.. maybe this plane is too slow to benefit from aerodynamic finetuning very much.

@TheFightingFalconAce Год назад

@laz272727 Год назад

Ultralights tend to have more engine power than a plane really needs, so they can do stupid takeoffs like these.

@braeeee_ Год назад

as someone else said, ultralights usually have a surplus of engine power. his aircraft cruises only around 30 mph and has quite a high thrust to weight ratio so even though the takeoff may look silly compared to a traditional fixed wing small aircraft, for an ultralight it's pretty standard.

@lr21643 10 месяцев назад

If full scale is anything like models, an aircraft with lots of dihedral will pitch down with a pure rudder input, in addition to banking. It's actually a good way to avoid a stall.

@Hellsong89 Год назад

Unless you are pretty much on surface of the sun there is no point doing that. You need the panels, those will increase weight and drag, nor wont be optimally angled to light. Then you need charger that also increases weight further. in the end you have increased weight so much that if motor is powerful enough to carry all that extra shit, you create about same amount electricity as it takes to carry extra weight. Only plus side would be potentially over time charging the damn thing if there is no power outlet around, but since range of this thing is so little already you can just land and plug it into wall charger...least long as the batteries are still alive, witch is maybe 10 years on high quality ones, before you need to replace them or just go up run out of battery in seconds and come back down. Note as airmanship you should always have extra fuel, if you need to go around or divert to other field. In this case you need extra capacity and since your life is essentially on the line of cheapest possibly made semiconductor actually working, i would highly suggest using two engine design with separate controllers, so you have back up system if main engine, battery or controller fails.. same with controls.

@lr21643 10 месяцев назад

I don't think the surface of the sun is necessary. The atmosphere of Mercury might be good enough, but it turns out there are problems.....

@lr21643 10 месяцев назад

Solar panels won't make much difference. Let's say you are flying an aircraft with 13 square meters of wing area at noon, on a perfectly clear day, when the sun is straight ovehead. Insolation might be about 500 Watts per square meter. If I'm not mistaken, that's about 6,500 Watts. You've installed very high grade, super duper solar panels which are 30 percent efficient. That takes you down to 1950 Watts. You've used a truly excellent motor that is 90 percent efficent, taking you down to 1,755 Watts (2.4 hp) or about the output of a hand pushed lawnmower that's badly out of tune. If you have a wonderful, large prop, spinning slowly, maybe it's 75 percent efficient at making thrust, so we're down to 1.8 hp. Let's say we have an ultralight that weighs only 400 lbs with the pilot, that has an L/D of 10. Both of these numbers are probably a little better than Mr. Sripol's aircraft. Let's say our aircraft gets it's best L/D at 50 feet per second, or about 34 mph. At 10:1, drag is 40 lbs. We have 40 lbs times 50 fps, or 2,000 ft-lbs of THRUST horsepower. That's about 3.6 hp. If we're using the aforementioned prop, we'll need about 4.8 shaft hp from the engine. To climb at a reasonable rate or take off in a reasonable distance, much more power would be required. To make the electric version work, even on a clear day at noon, on an equinox, at the equator, we'll need a Skycrane to hold a gigantic magnifying glass over our ultralight. In the real world, when the sun isn't straight overhead, or it's hazy, performance will be MUCH less, not only because of the less than perfect angle the light hits the solar panels at, but also because it's taken a longer path through the atmosphere, so more has been filtered out.

@RCHobbyist463 Год назад

As someone learning aerospace engineering it is kind of interesting how we use Bregeuet equations to calculate range and endurance based on the idea that an aircraft loses weight during flight.

Do you think end caps on a wing with that much dihedral would be beneficial? If you could reduce the turbulence at the wingtips possibly you could get more flight time.

@Pouncer9000 Год назад

With that much dihedral and that low of a wing loading you could argue the each wing panel _is_ a turbulence reducing device! Personally I'd lose the windscreen and sport goggles, should add a whole minute of flight time (also cheap and reversible)

This is cool, like you I've been into rc for a very long time (30 years) and like you, I build my own piloted aircraft these days, I build paramotor frames and outside of training (5 flights) I've never flown a commercial frame. I'm at about 300 hrs flying paramotors and I absolutely love it but the gyrocopter bug is itching a lot. You're an inspiration bro.

I feel like you can't call an aircraft useless because if it flies, or lifts off from the ground and returns to the ground in a safe manner, it's pretty much doing its job. And the fact that you're doing it with pretty easy to find materials makes them rather cost effective and material friendly aircraft which means they're pretty beneficial.
