Title: Belly landing question? Post by: PRANAVK09 on March 27, 2017, 05:58:57 PM Hello friends ,
I have seen many planes which lands on belly, But as my experience when we use a plane with belly landing there is wear and tear of the fuselage slowly and after 25~30 landings the plane get serious damage. :banghead: I want to ask what different techniques shall be used to avoid this? Please do mention technique and the material used for construction like depron, balsa, coro ,etc. Title: Re: Belly landing question?

Title: Re: Belly landing question? Post by: Bilal on March 27, 2017, 07:09:22 PM I used to put Fiber tape on the underside of fuselage of planes like Skysurfer, for other DIY ones, I just taped a piece of 1 mm or 2 mm coro on the bottom of the plane and get going.

Amazing idea sir thanks. :hatsoff: This will work for depron and corro also? Title: Re: Belly landing question? Post by: PRANAVK09 on March 27, 2017, 11:07:02 PM You can put skids on the belly. @ nitesh Can you add some photos.. That will clarify skids. Title: Re: Belly landing question?

Sry i dont have any photos, i had one skysurfer thats a history now. 3 Skids could be put in nose, tail and at the cg. But the bamboo strips Iyer sir have used is also kind a skid, and working great. (Correct me if i am wrong). Title: Re: Belly landing question? Post by: PRANAVK09 on March 28, 2017, 10:23:08 PM Thanks everyone..
Any more suggestions on coroplast builds...... Title: Re: Belly landing question? Post by: abhilash9797 on March 29, 2017, 07:39:28 AM You can use aeroply of 2mm or 3mm by plating the sheet in the belly of the plane..
