Re: pylon mount 2.5 meter rc glider build log

I have used Clark y airfoil with 10 ℅ camber thickness and 2° angle of attack... Which takes my co effeciency of lift to 1 to 1.2
As a result the stalling velocity is just 20 km/hr....

Pine spar sanjay sir... Two spine spars runs inside for 50 cms in each wing... They are connected by the ply with screws at top and bottom

Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth

Re: pylon mount 2.5 meter rc glider build log

OK, this is complicated, and I may well be wrong Head Scratching

but...

The maximum bending moment is at the centre while in flight. In fact, on most corro builds (eg see spadtothebone.net) you will see a fairly standard practice is to use a wing centre ''wrap'' to counter this.

As things are in your build, it may be a point of structure failure. That is, when executing a banking turn, and bending moment on the wing is high, it could break there. One solution would be to use a longer ply strip, but I fear even that may not be good.

Could you possibly have a solid joint at the centre, and removable at the tips of the polyhedral, if that degree of portability will suit you?

Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth

Re: pylon mount 2.5 meter rc glider build log

If your spar is thick enough at the centre (eg 25 mm) then you could make a tongue-and-groove joint with a single bolt down the middle, and a wing wrap glued on one side, and a push fit on the other.

If Mr. K K Iyer reads this post, it would be interesting to see his very knowledgeable viewpoint too.

Re: pylon mount 2.5 meter rc glider build log

Sanjay sir... I have a doubt... I have made the ply screws on both sides of the spar... Will that make the two spars act like a single one...

Dev, you can't directly upload a video. Put it on You Tube, and use ''insert hyperlink''

Re: pylon mount 2.5 meter rc glider build log

I buy sheets from RC Bazaar or Sharma Models (aeromodelsupermarket.com) depending on who has stock, and cut the spar
