This is the FPVWRA Spec legal foamboard airplane. This is 100% free to share and build or even produce if you want to make your own kit. I am giving this free of charge to the RC community to allow the foamboard builders to be able to race in the FPVWRA's most popular class: Spec wing.
The DXF file is the one I used for my CNC laser. The motor mount can be made from 1/4" or 1/8" plywood.

Well, you’re no Josh Bixler but good work Alex. Thanks for the plans. We’ve had several requests for a foamboard SPEC wing in our group. This should be a nice Segway for the guys that started with flight test but are interested in Spec racing.

Sure would like to start some micro wing racing, especially with great Analog and light HD video becoming affordable. I'm not sure why the WRA seemed to fissile except the by the overwhelming whoop and freestyle wave. Wings are just so much simpler yet still an exciting ride and competition.

Hi... Is a grand turbo gt2215/10 (kv1100) motor good for this wing? Or a cheap A2212/6T (2200kv) motor better... Got this cheap from AliExpress... And a 30A esp... what do you advice?
@TheDownloadfreegames
@TheDownloadfreegames 11 месяцев назад
seems like an easy build , one thing not mentioned anywhere is the scale of the printed plans or what paper size they shoudl be printed on. Flite test includes a scale on theirs so you can zoom in and out and find the sweet sport to print it . Does anyone have any info on this ?

Hi ibcrazy, thanks a lot for sharing this plan and even more the idea!!! but could you get it touch via flitetest forum with SPONZ and let him have a look at the plans, the community nower days has just "higher" expactancies (this is not a complain, only an idea) and maybe even publish it the over him to grow the wing racing in the flitetest familie. Do you got any sugestions on how to mount the fpv stuff? i really liked my ft arrow that had some slots for the rx and vtx. Keep up your great work!!!

@markthomas3853 5 лет назад
I like it even more that the files have flite test named in them :)... for those that haven't watch a few flitetest builds and you'll get a good idea of how to best build in the FT style... for example the hinge bevel is much easier if you leave it on the flat surface when cutting... also the notchs you've got can look a lot cleaner if you don't cut all the way though the foam but just the inside of the foamboard and then rip out the cuts so the keys fit in but it leaves the paper on the other side... I've got a spare DYS spec motor that I'll have to use on one of these... nice backup for my proper spec wing I suppose haha... or maybe a better one to practice bashing with?... also a bit of packing tape can go a LONG way to making these things much stronger.
@markthomas3853
@markthomas3853 5 лет назад
somehow I forgot I have a 3d printer... so I'm currently printing the motor mount out... my only concern is how strong/thick the side braces need to be... so erring on the thicker side for starters... will toss it up on thingiverse in a day or so if they aren't already up there by that time lol... I ran out of foamboard a few weeks ago so need to stop and pick some up again...

Probably a stupid question but how do I use these files without a laser cutter? Do I print the PDFs? If so what size paper, A1? I can't imagine many people having an A1 printer
@bkpickell
@bkpickell 2 года назад
There should be an option to print tiles. If not you can take it to a print shop and they can print it for a couple bucks. Although if I were to go through all that I would just take the dxf files to a makers space and laser cut them. And you should only have to print out one if you print them. As they should be symmetrical. Print out one template and just flip it over for the opposite wing.

You click on the link for tech inspection and it says to click on the updated rules for 2018 (First red flag: no update in four years). You click on that and it says to click on the 2018 rule book. So I clicked on that and it is giving links to the other two which went nowhere.

@fpvwra9745
@fpvwra9745 5 лет назад
How do I make a tiled file? There should have been 2 dxf files in there which is a CAD file. If there is another format in which I can export it so you can cut it by hand, let me know.
@markthomas3853
@markthomas3853 5 лет назад
no need for tiled... although it would make it a little easier... use adobe acrobat reader, goto print > set page sizing to poster > check mark cut marks > leave tile scale at 100%... it should print out with the cut marks on it which will let you get them put together cleanly....
