      I had that question too. And you must be an American because the Titan Wild is not available here and in fact the Titan Wild he is using is contact cement and I can only find Titan Glue for concrete blocks on the internet.
      I use Foam Tac from Beacon on my work with sheet foam.

      In fact it is. And on this side of the pond, it is considered to be the go-to glue for all kinds of foam (and foam-anything else combinations).

    Fantastic work. Instead of using sandbags, in the 'old' days when we built balsa wood models, we used pins to hold pieces together while the glue dried. When dry, you just pull out the pins and there's only a little hole left which gets filled when you paint the model or cover it with a film. You can make all sorts of odd shapes hold together that way and if you need more strength, just use more pins. If the parts want to pull apart, just put the pins in at an angle.

      agree. but, usually, wood/bamboo is sufficiently stiff; to a length of about one foot, or so. then, a single Guide, at the pushrod midpoint, would do the job.

I was able to build and lay out every part it was a lot of fun, it flew just like the one in the kit ,I'm going to do it again

    I see a lot of attention to keeping the build very lightweight even though it is also fragile. The fact it will only fly slow with the small motor should help prevent over stressing the airframe. I like watching slow and graceful fliers, even if the only days they can fly are very calm and breeze limited.

    the key tothe build is the aerofoil. everything else is standard plane building. good job no doubt, but the motor and prop, combined with the shape of the foil gives it the slow speed. i love slow flyers..thought the tail assembly was a little too complex. couldve just glued it to the top surface.

    13:45 If I see correctly, you have to make the polyhedral part's root about 1cm wider. So when you sand it to the right angle, it will fit perfectly with the middle section wing part.

      Im lucky I can still get BAZIC brand at different dallor stores..they're $1.50
      p/sheet thou...but they're pre color....It's better quality than Adams.
      I dont see any depron at my local home depot
      There's less rigs..ect. I can build 45" WS CUBs..but it's 800-825 gram AUW.
      It just depends how in a hurry i get...I use tac glue ( liter but takes longer to dry)
      a 2212 ( $5) 930 KV 10x5 on 2200mah 3s 40amp esc can fly it for 10 plus mins.
      I actaully dont mind the model being heaver..so it wont get toss around in 5-10 wind....
      It can do loops, rolls....Not super slow..but it'll float like a trainer.
      The 2212 is actaully under size for that size model...but it's the wing loading
      that's helping it...
      I might be able to get away building a 60"...if I use 2217 850kv on a 12" prop
      but I'll have to use 3000mah...use some thermal to help.
      Im still in search of a smaller model so I can fly at a local park
      I have a 30" on 2208 1400 kv on 8x5..it's too fast..there's too many trees.
      it's 325-350 gram AUW

    @jsbtokyo3765 4 роки тому +1

    Very interesting but the construction method is slightly complicated for a beginner.
    Those who want to simplify it with a very little penalty in performance, could use the wing section with flat bottom (eventualy the upper surface of trailing edge overhangs for 2 cm) and reinforce structural critical points, for example the internal white sheet of fuselage and the upper surface of fuselage to to be extended 5 cm further the trailing edge (in opposit direction) to avoid the abrupt interruption of the structure (+2 g? but much better).
