Title: Build log: EXTRA 230 Electric profile
Post by: AEROVISHWA on March 03, 2013, 10:27:37 PM
with the last extra build for nitro.. coming just 1day early for the sweepstakes.. this one comes in right in time...

can say it as a scratch build since the dimensions and other were taken from a 3 view diagram and traced to get it laser cut...

any one interested in building a same... i would be more than happy to share the .CDR ( corel draw X5) for laser cutting.

attaching pics...

it takes around 2-3 mins for cutting the entire plane this size...

Cool! What power system are you planning on?

motor: GT2215
ESC: TGY plush 30
BAT: nanotech 2250 3S 35-70C

Which s/w u use for this and what ply thickness he can cut.


Title: Re: Build log: EXTRA 230 Electric profile
Post by: AEROVISHWA on March 04, 2013, 11:23:28 AM
i have tried around 3mm ply.... but it takes a lot of time... around 25-30 mins for the same cutting... hence expensive.. ( char aane ki murgi bara aane ka masala)

wise enough to use balsa, u can design in a balsa saving config for minimum wastage...

Sorry for so many questions but what is the reliable source of balsa in India


Title: Re: Build log: EXTRA 230 Electric profile
Post by: AEROVISHWA on March 04, 2013, 12:09:42 PM
happy to answer all.....

best source for balsa (as what i buy from) RCDHAMAKA, SPHEREHOBBIES.... wide variety
