Title: 1903 wright flyer build for for 2015 sweepstakes Post by: jayantpradhan on July 15, 2015, 12:52:57 PM hello everyone! here i'm again with my 3rd entry to the 2015 sweepstakes. this time its 1903 wright flyer scratch build with actual wing warping.... i was out of station for few days , that's why i'm late in posting and will continue the build from today onward..
since i was unsuccessful in getting plans for this build so i will have to figure out the dimensions to build this awesome flyer, though i have taken references from many google images... so for this build i'm going to use 3mm depron , barbecue sticks, carbon rods, clear tape , glue and some miscellaneous stuffs (will figure out later).. i started this build on 2nd July 2015.

the most painful and time taking process was to connect the wings as it took me the whole day to do the thing properly and now its all glued and its symmetric with 10cm gape throughout the wings... (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/--7pthR2n04s/VafGDB1SRrI/AAAAAAAAAms/aQu7s1uIe4Q/s1280-Ic42/17.JPG) measured and poked some holes near the wing ribs where the sticks will go... (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-SyISd-61Me0/VafGDXfLA9I/AAAAAAAAAmw/L-hkLAhqUvs/s1280-Ic42/18.JPG) took 8 2mm carbon tubes and 10 barbecue sticks. they all are 10.6cm in length ( since i want 10cm of gape between two wings and my wings are 3mm in thickness so, 10cm+0.3cm+0.3cm=10.6cm) (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-xI5jedMB8Bg/VafGDuE1jLI/AAAAAAAAAm0/wBGohtptsz0/s1280-Ic42/19.JPG) Title: Re: 1903 wright flyer build for for 2015 sweepstakes Post by: jayantpradhan on July 16, 2015, 10:12:26 PM completed wings.. these are 10cm all around symmetric...

while the wing is all glued and done, its time to build the wing warping mechanism.. took screw hole part from a 9g servo protector and glued it to the wing which will act as a connect point for the servo push rod.

BTW what glue you are using.... doesn't look like fevicole? Title: Re: 1903 wright flyer build for for 2015 sweepstakes Post by: jayantpradhan on July 21, 2015, 05:06:29 PM for depron purpose i use synthetic fevicole (i think this is what its called) its similar to fevicole but much cheaper (250g for rs20) and dries much much quicker then fevicol.. and for the other parts i use dendrite and super glue..

Title: Re: 1903 wright flyer build for for 2015 sweepstakes Post by: jayantpradhan on September 07, 2015, 09:13:30 AM completed the model but unfortunately crashed it (it flew for 4 sec i think) ... :banghead: :banghead:
couldn't take the flight/crash video but I'm here to show you the model before the crash and after the crash and also the video of wing warping.. I'm really frustrated right now but i don't want to leave my post alone and incomplete.. >:( so here i go...:- completed model:- (wheels are added for easy take-off and landing and added some strings to get the effect of cable as in real Wright flyer) (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-w1AAR4MpUe8/Ve0GshE2cSI/AAAAAAAAAwM/OkS3cEZ0a_g/s1280-Ic42/1f.jpg) (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UrNTnKSi6FU/Ve0GsivKkBI/AAAAAAAAAwE/7-kAsmfhK-I/s1280-Ic42/2.jpg) (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6-UhjX_4gzo/Ve0Gu3_X71I/AAAAAAAAAwY/yVEDg2mNp54/s1280-Ic42/3.jpg) (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/--etSHERnfCA/Ve0Gu86tLSI/AAAAAAAAAwg/lDrHTiDIfXk/s1280-Ic42/4.jpg) (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Pu0i1MMZAa4/Ve0GvrXAqPI/AAAAAAAAAwk/uY97reMPz2A/s1280-Ic42/5.jpg) wing warping video:- (i will improve the warping technique on my next build) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXSXVdTObNQ Title: Re: 1903 wright flyer build for for 2015 sweepstakes Post by: jayantpradhan on September 07, 2015, 09:38:45 AM after crash:- ( destryed the main part of the model, the wings)

Really unfortunate but nevertheless a wonderful build. Eagerly waiting for your repeat build.
What was it that caused the crash? |
