Getting there, getting there, yet 18 till I die!

Seriously Sandy, that is a very good looking wing. Teach me. I have a BIG Tow Line Glider (64" span) returning my way from Anta. I want it to look like this.

Please note that it will be an Under Cambered wing.

So Whats left now are

1. Hinging of the control surfaces and linking.
2. Covering the sides.
3. Fixing the rubber band spar and rubber band.
4. Decals and numbering.
5. Fixing of battery based on the CG.

The engine has been run in and has been replaced with a Mylar reed valve. Lets see, on the bench it looks Nice so far. RPM of 12820 with a 6x4 prop.

Should touch a 13000 to 14000 in air. Thats about 250 to 300 gms of static thrust.

Yet to do the final weighing in lets see how it turns out.

I wanted it to be a slow flier and a floater for Param. If it is not able to carry well will be changing to electric.  Tongue

Thankyou Sanjay Sir, Arun

I left it uncovered under the nose basically because of two reasons.

one is that the sealing iron was not reaching inside being narrow.

second it was easy for the routing of fuel line. fuel tank is right above it with air vent pipe coming down from those holes any over flow while filling is going to make it soggy there.  Grin

Over all AUW with fuel and BEC 2S lipo is 540 Gms.

with an expected thrust of 250 to 300 gms it is around 0.5 power to weight ratio. Should definitely  fly as long as it can glide well.

If this Balsa Glider at 28.5 Oz (800 gms ) can fly with a cox 0.49 and a 6x3 prop I am hopping mine will definitely paint sky red.  Grin



Again this AXN at 780 gms

The first test flight not good as extremely tail heavy at CG 35% and windy it was always pitching up at the slightest of gust and it was extremely windy.



So now the Lipo has been moved to right next to engine forward. and CG moved forward to 20% now.

watch for next flight test.

 6x4 was surely on the higher side. 5x4 would have been perfect .. since the ground was small it was flying on controlled throttle.

Thankyou Sir

The ground has lot of grass and since wheels are small it was not attaining speed easily. In tarmac it has a shorter run.

A perfect model for Param. Has great inherent stability, literally uncrashable.  Unless he deliberately noses it down it is not going to crash at all and on throttle cut just glides beautifully.
