How to Hotwire Cut a Wing

This is my first video so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know
Actually in an engineering school in France, i have as a project the build of an hydrofoil rc boat, is it possible for you to share your 3D printed parts plans like the direction part for me to ues them. Thanks a lot !
Those are some very clean wings.
It seems the first and last gliders were nose heavy while the second one was just right. I tried a similar experiment except I compared it to a conventional airfoil. Nice video by the way! It was short and sweet.
Entertaining and informative in 45 seconds. A unicorn in UA-cam!
Awesome craft you made! and it worked on the first day! How fantastic!
What a cool project! Just curious, is this in HKSAR or another county? Anyways congratulations on getting it to work!
Great hydrofoil! I want to build one with flap control in the foils. Get the front foil flaps and the rear foil pitch control working on a gyroscope..... Happy flying
I am actually working on a stabilized RC hydrofoil, I think you would like it! ua-cam.com/video/YOpvE_k-1A4/v-deo.html
what are the dimensions of the first one? (span, chord length, fuselage length...) thx!
Are the smells of the melted foam a health hazard? I might try it with the end of a hot glue gun cause I don’t have a soldering iron. This is an amazing discovery you made here.
Thanks. I think maybe we should test like this for more clear: same profile for different size, and same size but different kf airfoil. I like the kfm 2, its simple&clean looking, easy understand and build 😏
Could you make a throttle to rear foil mix in the transmitter to keep the nose down when throttle is applied. The project is going good thanks for sharing
Yes that’s a good idea, I might also experiment with moving the CG forwards and maybe heating the frontfoils and twisting them down at the tips so the bottom centimetre or so pulls down
@@rccreations8221 early days for your foiled, but fantastic project, I am learning from what you do👍
Thanks, really appreciate the support
What battery were you using?
I was using a 2900mah 3s
That is so close to working properly on the first attempt. Good Stuff. I am sure you will have it sorted in the next few runs. looking forward to the video of it.
Yes I’ll make a few mods and waterproof the electronics and hopefully get some stable foiling
WOW - that was a pleasure to watch, well done :) Love what you are doing! Keep it up.Iam now your channel subscriber.Don't forget to watch my channel too
How heavy is it overall?
It’s 900 grams including the battery
@@rccreations8221 that’s pretty light
I don’t thing weight matters that much but I think it would still work fine if it was 1.5 kgs
You have done an amazing job on this project. Did you design yourself? Really interested in why you have chosen this layout. Wondering about how you will regulate pitching with out an auto levelling feeler arm. I have got plans to do some more with boats, particularly foilers and ekranoplans in the near future. Can't wait for the maiden. All the best Allen
Hi Allen I got the design files for the foils off thingiverse(front foils from a BOR 90 triamaran and the T foil from another rc boat from thingiverse) I built the hull for a different purpose about a year and a half ago which is why it looks so weird.( balsa covered in carbon fibre) As the boat foils higher there will be less lift as the front foils will have less in the water. Thanks for your interest
Awesome! It looks really good. I’ve been wanting to make a hydrofoil boat for a while but haven’t really got to it. Can’t wait for the tests!
Polystyrene is just great. Easy to carve. I use a wire heated with a torch to create holes and grooves. My soldering iron is for soldering. I also cover the servo with painters masking tape then glue them in, because it makes recovering the servo easier.
Use a soldering iron is probably a better idea than just scraping out with a knife like I do. You don’t get the little beads of foam on your floor.
Good content! Subbed! -watched your vids in backwards order, haha- Could make longer vids on in-depth topics or keep doing these quick tips. Decent music (just beware them copyrights lol) Also I'd like flight demos if they fit in :D But yeah! Great start!
Thanks, there will be some longer scratch builds in the future
HAHA! Glider 1 flew great! I should try KF steps instead of literal flat, taped sheet-of-cardboard wings lol.
Will that winglet go on a plane?
No it’s a hydrofoil for an rc boat that I will build/show in a future video
Nice! I feel like I should experiment around with these airfoils.
Yes please do they’re great fun and so simple
I just subscribed. I will look forward to more videos. The more the merrier.
Thank you! This Wing is gonna go on my flying boat but I’m gonna waiting on covering film
@@rccreations8221 Glad you have joined the fun. I always look forward to different build ideas. Also "Call" maybe a pesky Bot.ua-cam.com/video/1-_g7AdTq8s/v-deo.html
