HI guys,

For long I was thinking of making WING  Head Scratching Head Scratching. But after seeing Ujjwana’s and Amar’s wing I get motivated to make one!!!!!  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

So here is my 1st wing build pictures  Thumbs Up!!!! It took little longer than expected….. since in original design motor and ESC are open, I decided to make small canopy, so that everything will be inside and will give little different look!!! Drool

Aerofoils is KF4, main wing, canopy  out of 5mm biofoam used 8 mm for KF4 aerofoil!!!!

It took sometime to make template and make canopy and overall structure….made simple wing little complicated  Bang Head Bang Head

Also colored underneath with orange and black….top side will be red and yellow fire. Like shown in last pic, currently half painted with yellow!!!! After doing paint job I decided to cut red fire in radium….
Coloring took lots of efforts than expected…..

I have 3 motors with me CF2805, 2800kv, will try to maiden using this motor on 2s lipo. Then I am planning to use 2627, 3800kv motor with 4” prop and 3s and 2208, 1800kv motor with 6” prop and 3s lipo.

Lets see how things work out…. If everything is pretty smooth then will upgrade to 2218, 2500kv heli motor for more speed!!!!!!

here is some paint job!!!

used Bossony Epoxy color spray cans, beware to spray from ar least 12" from surface, other wise it will eat the foam!!!!!!

at some places it was too concentrated and had little damage to foam but not much significant!!!

Every Flight is a test & every Crash is a Lesson.



 Clap  Beautiful. !!  
Please post videos of your maiden flight. I am looking forward to it Smiley

I must say, you have now inspired me to build a profile version of the F-117 Nighthawk   Tongue

I have always wanted to build a model which I can fly over my terrace...

Thank you ! and great effort you put on your Flying Wing  Thumbs Up

finally got some time to upload maiden video for this one!!!

maiden was done in Jun, it took off well but after few seconds it dive down and crashed  Bang Head  Bang Head

i think, since there were no vertical stabilizer, it was little unstable and i could no handle it. i should have gained some height, but anyways, it is repairable but will take sometime. main wing is still intact, damage is only to the canopy section...

video was taken by Saurabh and launched by Sandeep!!!!!

enjoy!!!

If you were not planning to put vertical stabilizers the inherent property of the airfoil should provide the stabilization. The airfoil should be specifically selected for flying wing. It is very difficult to do that though. A true flyingwing will not have vertical stabilizers, but people have fun with winglets.

Kfm-4 is specifically for flying wings and tailless airplanes, as its symmetrical, may be you should give some washout to stabilize it more??

No thats not  a general rule, kmf4  may be symmetrical, but its not specific airfoil for tailless flying wing.

Nice Ash... The maiden atarted all well, but more than lack of winglets(which I would recommend anyway), it more looks like a servo failure or you going into full rates accidentally, or even a sudden CG change (motor/lipo coming off) . Flying wings are very sensitive to CG and control surface and you should put way less throws. a D/R of 20-35% is usually enough on Ailerons and 40% on Elevators.

This should have come first, but I liked you build very much. The fuse, launch tab and the trim scheme (Yellow and white !), if not putting a build thread, could you please send few pics of the plane?

it was crashed last month...

in weekends and after office hr i steal some hrs and slowly started rebuilding its nose...

initially i decided what part of crushed biofoam can be used...then cut it down in straight line so that additional biofoam can be attached to it.

as u can see nose, canopy and launch tab was crushed...
so 1st i started with launch tab, cut out unnecessary part in straight line and stick rest back to wing using Evotite. then added additional biofoam,to complete the shape...

once this is done.. i get support for canopy..
so now time to rebuilt canopy....

taking pieces of biofoam and making fix and match, i finally able to cut it as i wanted...once everything is as per i wanted i used evotite and stick it togather....and results are pretty satisfactory...

pls see the pictures below

after seeing the behavior, as ujjwaana and sunlike suggested, even I initially thought of the servo failure or may be some technical issue…… but servo is still working fine..may be infamous DSM2 glitch…

finally I put detachable winglets and as suggested by Ujjwaana reduce the throws and what a wonder it flew like dream…..gentle and pretty stable...thanks guys....

here are some videos of my wing……
