Переглядів 2262 місяці тому
A Square-tailed Kite (Lophoictinia isura) shows me where to find a thermal! Testing the CG at 50mm. Much more stable compared to previous tests. For this flight the CG was on the CG "dimples" in the wing. zeeebattery.com/products/zeee-3s-lipo-battery-2200mah-11-1v-120c-xt60?sca_ref=7466728.rozNEztZrz

Two test flights with the CG at 55mm. It still stalls and spins if you are cross-controlled in a thermal so I will be trying an even heavier battery next time. For these flights the CG was on the rear edge of CG "dimples" in the wing. zeeebattery.com/products/zeee-3s-lipo-battery-2200mah-11-1v-120c-xt60?sca_ref=7466728.rozNEztZrz

Short flight to test reduced control throws and a Gemfan 5045 3 blade propeller after the successful maiden last time out. I love how locked in it feels, definitely flies like it is on rails! Not bad for a $10 chuck glider and parts scrounged from my drone spare parts box.

KMart (Lidl V1) Mini Goblin maiden flight. Inspired by @sylfpvdiy7921 except I didn't move the wing back to extend the nose and used a much lighter motor to get the balance.

Third flight of the Ugly Duckling. Still trying to find the best flap setting for thermalling, but much better with the elevator dialled back.

I found this Volantex ASW-28 on rctrader.com for AU$60! It had a terrible paint job, lots of hangar rash and no motor. Lots of cleaning and a Surpass-Hobby C2834 1120KV motor and it's back in the air.

Where about's is this? which country?
@@richosvideos911 This is South-east Queensland, Australia.
Looks very efficient. How long can it fly for?
@@nielsdaemen If the day is warm and there is thermal activity you can fly without power for as long as you want. We often fly for 30+ minutes after running the motor for 1.5 minutes total.
Sweet man. I used to have a 16’ glider
wow... thats quick! have try 4s?
To maintain the front strength I haven't hollowed it out very much so none of the 4S packs I have will fit. It would be very fast on 4S though!
Superfast and aerobatic... love it..😁
Warbird flies great !!
Old school 2 stroke... love it .!!
That's a rocket !!!
i keep saying i am going to build one to much fun to miss out
nice always goes well .
that went well fly's nice👍
fly's nice landing was a bit rough
@@crog9750 It will be better when you get some bracing to keep it from flattening.
Hello Colin, I just bought a PhoenixS in kit which I just finished to assembly. I have a RadioMaster Pocket, but the documentation is poor and I don’t know how to start it and to be linked with the emetor of the plane. Could you help me to start the radio step by step ? Looking forward to reading from you soon
@@VoyazopoulosJean-Louis You are going to love the 1600! I flew it this morning and really enjoyed it after almost a month break. Unfortunately I don't know anything about programming RadioMaster transmitters as I use a Futaba T8J and Futaba compatible receivers from RadioMaster.
best design so far🎉❤
Nice mate
Must meet up next time buddy
very nice 👍
Love the Viper.. looks great...
Awesome field !!
How did the printed prop go ?? Balance up ok...?
It looks so majestic in flight Colin...!! That 2nd landing you could almost feel the wind... well done getting it down safely...
Thank you! That was a hairy go-around, and I shouldn't have retracted the flaps so quickly. The wind picked up about 10kph from launch to landing!
Nice where is that
This is our flying field at Mundoolun, west of Tamborine Mountain.
Lidl rocket !!😅
I bought this same glider and I want to convert it to RC. thanks for the information
necesita refuerzo de fibra de carbono en el ala?
The Albatross FX707s kit I purchased included a carbon tube for the wings and another for the rear of the fuselage.
@@Colin_Holloway gracias aún no me llegó no sabía si lo traía.
Si o si necesita refuerzo de fibra de carbono en el ala?
The Albatross FX707s kite includes a carbon tube wing joiner and fuselage stiffener.
Cracking mate on my way 😂
I have the same wing。 😁 ua-cam.com/video/KXekWN5A9AY/v-deo.html
Neeeeeee____owwwwwwww
It flies on rails 👍👍
Nice mate
Is there a difference in flight characteristics, compared to the classic aileron/elevator configuration? Does it feel different?
@@stejer211 No difference at all! If anything it is better because there is less adverse yaw.
That's a great climb rate, love watching the big Asw float around... so relaxing !! Always looks impressive... well done.. excellent rebuild...
@@craigmcdonald-rcgliding Thank you! It makes me want to go larger next time.
Awesome!
Great vid. Assuming you guys are in Aus! Where did you buy your phoenix from if you don’t mind me asking?
Thank you! Yes I am in Aus, and I purchased from Banggood. Here's the link: www.banggood.com/custlink/DGv9hkJpGN
@@Colin_Holloway Thankyou! It’s currently $311 from the China warehouse and a lot cheaper but unavailable to send from the US warehouse. Did I miss a sale from the China warehouse? Damn
@@georgesmith5598 I got this one about a month ago on a flash sale. Keep an eye out because the sales come back often.
Beautiful flying, loving the high contrast b/w pattern. Sweet bird singing, too 😊 Is that 30a ESC working ok for you? I was thinking about putting a 40a in mine with a 10x6 prop and 2830 1000kV motor.
Thank you! I bought some black vinyl from a stationery store (used for covering books) and it sticks really well to the foam. I am actually using a N2830 1000LV motor with a BLHeli 30a ESC. It is working well except that the ESC doesn't have enough braking force to stop and fold the propeller. I am upgrading to a HobbyWing Skywalker V2 40amp which has multiple braking force options and a setting to turn off Active Freewheeling.
@@Colin_Holloway Thanks, that‘s super helpful, I hadn’t considered braking power. A better folding prop should help gliding! 3s speed is looking so much fun on your build. Hoping to get good runtime on a 3s 2200mah.
@@maximee The standard folding propeller from the kit is plenty good enough for sport flying, and with the right ESC it folds very flat to the fuselage. If you get some lift like I did on this flight, it isn't about runtime from the battery. The flight was over 16 minutes long and only used 2:45 of motor run, which was about 300ma from the battery. The 3S 2200 puts the CG on the marks but I only use about 15-20% of the charge each flight!
Hello. Do you have stl files?
I have added the link to the description.
The big smoke 👍
nice! Can you change Servo?
Yes, the servos are screwed in from the outside so provided you can pull the wires through they can be changed.
Looks sweet mate where is the park
Thank you! This is our local footy fields 5 mins from home. Plenty of room for this kind of flying.
@@Colin_Holloway sweet flown canungra park with the pug
@@NickChittyFlying This would be perfect for a small DLG.
Now i want to do this to one of my “spare” Lidl planes.
Nice work!
@NickChittyFlying 17:55 is the coffee shop on the left and launch slope on the right.
Is that the hill with coffee shop mate
Yeah there is a coffee shop across the road. We often stop there for a meal when we are out on the motorcycle as well!
@@Colin_Holloway yer used to belong to hg mates sister see you up there soon 😍
What date and time did you film?
I have added info to the description.
Awesome catch! Would you be okay with me featuring this in my series Weekly Dose of Aviation? Of course you will be credited both in the video and in the description. Thanks!
Sure thing
there is a baptism flight
Fantastic capture! May I feature this C17 low pass in my next video? Of course I'll provide a link back to your original video. All the best to you!
Absolutely! Just credit me on screen and in the description.
