@@bluefish3607Thank you!
HI Glen - thanks for the speedy response.
I had noticed when I attempted to add the recommended 2nd coat to the more vulnerable areas, that the 1st coat softened and started to drag, so I aborted the 2nd coat. Now that the Foam Armour is protecting the foam (one model EPS and one EPP) I am going to try sealing the Armour with automotive (acrylic) clear lacquer spray as used on car bodywork. I do like the way that Armour smoothes the surface. I would use it as a primer under automotive primer and top coat if I was repairing a foam model and re-spraying it.
I have researched E6000. It is a contact adhesive and general warnings are not to let it near foam! But there are different foams and different version of E6000, including a spray-on can. Clearly trials are needed on spare pieces of model foam.
Have looked at Mod Podge? Popular in The States for foam protection.
Just to add to the list, B-7000 too.
Great idea compiling a separate video on this topic Glen.
I believe that you were going to email me sometime?
Glen
I've solved the Foam Armour problem.
I coated part of an old foam aileron with Foam Armour on both sides. Once thoroughly dry I coated one side lightly with Halfords Clear Lacquer. Once dry I sprayed both sides liberally with water.
The Foam Arnour only side softened, none of the bubbling that you observed. The lacquered side just beaded off the water, everything stable.
Thats sounds like a good method, let me know how it stands up in the field. In my latest vid I show the E6000 coating for you. I have my respirator, Toluene and some E6000 and will try thinning the E6000 slightly and brushing it over the fuse. I have got some B-7000 as well and as I understand it that is just a thinner version of the same compound.
@@bluefish3607 Hi Glen. Foam Armour Update.
Application neat onto the foam of my E-Flite Turbo Timber Eve I considered a success. Time will tell if it ever gets to wet and need the clear lacquer. I estimate it added about 30g or so to the airframe weight.
Application to the EPP foam on my Hacker Super Zoom XL wasn't probably necessary, but I looked at it as an experiment. This time I diluted the Foam Armour with about 10% water to help it flow better. That worked. But I reckon I was a little impatient and applied the clear lacquer too soon and hadn't allowed enough time, about a day, for the Foam Armour to full dry out and cure. Consequently it added about 120g to the weight of the airframe. Was made this worse was that there is a lot of surface area behind the CofG so I needed to move the battery forward and add 30g nose weight. The clear lacquer I consider a success in waterproofing the Foam Armour.
You always make me jealous with these clean builds. I always rush into it to get it flying and it looks like a rat nest. That makes me want to spend more time in building for sure. Awesome setup! And curious to see that thing flying.
I am never going to fly it, just put it in a glass case and admire it :-)
Great build. Looking forward to the flights!
Thanks Jacob, but I don't want to fly it and get it dirty lol.
Really perfect build! Looking forward for your videos of the flights and I also would be very interested in a comparison with the ar wing pro. That would be great!
Thanks glad you liked it. I do plan to do a comparison video between the AR pro and dart XLE after the maiden and tuning of the XLE. I love them both but will be good to put them head to head.
Well done buddy , I'm putting my first wing together
Good luck with the build John and happy flying
Nice Build Glenn !
Thanks, I just don't want to fly it and get it dirty :-)
Perfect timing for me! I've yet to fly any of my 'lockdown builds' and am just getting into FPV from flying LOS fixed-wing and helis. The DartXL(E) was my first build after watching your excellent video(s) and I'll be sure to incorporate your good ideas before the maiden. Mine differs in that it has a DJI AU and the standard motor, but also a matek F765 Wing (overkill for this model and I've learned since). Crossfire nano and T antenna on the wing and also will use the 4S Turnigy 5200 Lipo, but have built a couple of 4S 2P LiIon packs to try later if I can keep max current down.
I've set it up for autolaunch but still wondering if I should keep in Manual and get help to toss it! Looking forward to your maiden and any info you can give about initial CG, autolaunch settings, nav-cruise throttle settings, rates, etc. Anything to help with de-risking the first flights! I'm intrigued by the Foam Armour and will get some to try - I used HD packing tape on the wing tips and leading edges but never happy with the 'tape' look.I guess it's function over looks.
Again, many thanks for your very helpful videos and advice! Incidentally, I also have an AR Wing Pro to maiden and have nicked a lot of your ideas and 3d STLs :)
Cheers, Andy
(Oxford)
Hi Andy I love both the Dart XLE and the AR Pro and get excited every chance I get to fly them. I have DJI AU in my AR Pro as I wont be pushing it out that far and is more of a proximity fun plane, that said I have been out 5K with it.
The new XL is my new long range platform so going with 5.8Ghz analogue to try and get to my goal of 25km out and hopefully using my MyFlyDream tracker which has proved to be a bit of a challenge so far.
I will be covering all the Autolaunch settings and testing the cruise and efficiency in the maiden video which I may get done later this week but weather looks a bit dodgy.
Glad you find the videos entertaining and the 3D designs useful.
Nice work, I just got one myself will be a fun build
I am sure you will enjoy it John. Happy Flying
Did you do the upgraded motor for speed or efficiency ?
@@johndeesfpv9289 I just really love that motor on the Dart XL it has a little more punch than the stock motor when flying proximity for fun but equally as efficient for long range. The stock motors on the MK11 Dart XL is also very good and much better than the original ones on the MKI when the XLE first came out.
Oh and my favourite colour is blue :-)
Amazing work, congrats!!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Perfect, just got one in the mail today!
I am sure you will have a lot of fun with it, such a great wing
Hi Glenn. Love your videos; they have been super helpful for me as I learn the hobby!
I was wondering, do you have the STL for the FC mount with the cam locks? I can't seem to find them anywhere on Thingiverse. Thanks a million, and best of luck!!
Ooops I just saw the comment below, asking the same question. Never ind, I got it through the link you shared. Well thanks anyway. And happy flying!
Sorry Ken, was busy entertaining family over Xmas period, glad you found the file. Best wishes for the New Year, and happy flying to you too.
Hi Glen
I note that you have used Beacon Foam Armour protective coating on the foam of this model. I am trailing it on a couple of my models, but it's too early to know how effective it is. Foam Armour has the feel and smell of PVA woodworking adhesive, so I don't find it very easy to apply - Beacon should produce it a little less thixotropic in my opinion to ease application.
So how are you finding Foam Armour a year on?
I recall you also trying a different coating, but I cant find the video you mentioned it in: E6000 or B7000 maybe?
Whatever is was, how did that coating perform?
Hi Dave
I stopped using foam armour because when it gets wet it bubbles up and I often land on wet grass. I think it would be ok if kept completely dry.
I now coat the front of my fuselage on my AR Pro with E6000 glue it is extremely tough, fully waterproof and has withstood some pretty hard crashes. It is pretty thick and I just spread it with a finger or credit card wearing rubber gloves. I believe you can thin it with toluene and apply with a brush but I think that stuff is pretty noxious. I will showing my technique in an upcoming build video.
0:50 You jinxed yourself there buddy
Maybe I made the plane better but I need to focus on improving myself more :-)
Very nice build!
Thank you! Cheers!
Another great video Glenn, I think the underside wing tip protectors you have designed might be a welcome addition to my XLe, especially where I'm flying. Have you got a link to them Glenn? Thanks again, Mick
Thanks Mick, I will be uploading all the 3D designs on Friday as its mad busy at work this week. But you can get the Anti Gorse Skids here for now drive.google.com/file/d/1OmkA8Xb9PcKz55R9qxs80AIAhcZYLnDF/view?usp=sharing
@@bluefish3607 Honestly Glenn, they are just what's needed. I'm always picking up my planes with bits of the Forest in them. You'll be pleased to know I have found a few 'Gorse free' landing zones for when you bring your wings down mate👍
thanks for the great build review and 3d parts. Going to start printing most of these for my brand new Dart. Tho I do have a question about the wing placement of the crossfire. Wing connector offers only 3 pins for the cable, crossfire needs 4 to get telemetry back to the radio, because I use Inav lua. Should I just drill a hole next to the pin connector and lead the 4th wire through it? thanks
Just share the ground on the servo and crossfire on a single pin in the wing connector by splicing them together, then you don't need to drill or add any extra wires and it keeps everything neat.
I hope that helps, good luck with the build and maiden.
oh and, I'm going to use a GoPro7, noticed it blocks up the entire front air vent. is the rear hatch vent enough to keep everything cool?
@@sidd8310 Yes should be no problem
Nice review, really enjoyed your videos and got many insights. How many layers of foam armour was done on the craft? Im planning on building my 1st wing, Initially I thought of going with atomrc dolphin as theres a local pilot in my area managed 40km with a 10kmah li ion, but after watching alot of your vidoes and got alot of insight, im considering the ar wing pro or zohd dart xl enhance. Im looking for high speed cruise and normal cruise speed long range, of all these wings, which would you recommend best suited for my build?
I just used a normal paint brush and put one layer on the fuselage, wint tips and elevons. It pretty thick stuff and you have to brush it on quite quickly as it starts to dry pretty fast.
I would go for the AR Wing Pro as it can do everything, long range cruising. or fun flying like in my video, I have set mine up with DJI for up to 5km range and as fun flier and my Dart XL is being setup as an efficient long range cruiser, but if I had to choose only 1 I would go for the AR pro personally,
@@bluefish3607 Thank you soo much. I just made my order on the AR Wing Pro!
@@vektr6278 Its and awesome plane congratulations and welcome to the AR pro club :-) Happy Flying
Hi,
Do you have a link to the STL files for the removable FC (F405?) mounts with the tabs, that you show around 8:30 - 8:40 section of this video? Would love to use a mount like that as you show, where you can remove it just by turning a couple of tabs.
Thank you for the great video
Hi John, here you go drive.google.com/file/d/1GYh0ApGIzbpzgUUYQzNodnAPy64kjzv0/view?usp=share_link
Still waiting for my zoid xl to show up but getting plan together for installing electronics, on your setup seems like esc and vtx are very close is there any interference in vtx? Also gps is not on top seems like it would get better signal if more exposed to the sky but i may be wrong on both accounts? Thanks for video, please give me your take on this.
Hi, I have never had any interferenace between a VTX and GPS or indeed with Crossfire. I have built may quads and crammed these electronic components insite a carbon frame very close togetehr in some caes even touching each other. I am inclined to think that the consensus that interference can happen is a bit of a myth, but I am not certain, just that I have never had an issue. Mount things as you like and test to see if you get any issues and move things if that happens but I doubt it will. Thats my take on it.
Great video 👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it.
Hello! greetings from California!! I absolutely love the 3d printed parts you've designed for the Dart XL, are they available for download?
Hi Yes I pinned the Thngiverse link but here it is again www.thingiverse.com/bluefishuk/designs if there is something you need that i have not uploaded drop me a message and I with pop it up on my Google Drive and send you a link.
Hey Glenn great video thanks, I've seen some people having trouble with the alerions tearing at the hinges, how hard would it be to install ca hinges on this model? Thanks again
I think it would be quite straight forward to fit CA hinges especially if you retain the foam hinges. I will likely make some balsa hinges for my Dart XL and use the CA method.
Thanks for quick response, do you mean leave factory hinges in place and add plactic or ca hinges. Thanks again
@@egtreadway4232 I mean slice the foam hinges off with a craft knife and refit them with CA hinges should be straight forward, alternatively run a thin layer of E6000 into the join of the foam as this will strengthen the hinges.
Thanks alot I will give this a try with they ca hinges and also will run some carbon fiber rod along elevons for strength.
A couple of crossfire questions: 1) How do you route your 4th wire required for the crossfire through your wing butt? I like the detachable wings and want to have the crossfire on the wing tip, but wondering how to get that 4th wire through the wing connection. 2) did you run into any problems with your lower crossfire antenna dragging on the ground during landing?
Hi Jim, I just spliced the ground wire from the servo in the wing wire groove and shared it with the Crossfire Nano, I do this on all my planes.
The Immortal T antenna is very tough made with reinforced spring steel wire and has no problems at all, especially as I land on grass 99% of the time. If it ever does bend slightly it either springs back into place or I just give it a gentle bend to straighten it up.
Hope that helps.
@@bluefish3607 That was super helpful and works like a charm! Getting ready to maiden and wondering if you would share your INAV autolaunch settings. I am using the stock motor on my Dart XL Enhanced.
was wondering what your launch settings are for the dart, just finished mine, just wondering your idle throttle and launch throttle ?

Hi
Do you have a link for the "Remix FC mount" you mention @08:10?
That looks so much better that other ones I've tracked down on Thingiverse or Yeggi. I've searched but keep drawing a blank.
I have a H743-Wing to mount in the Zohd Dart XLE, do you know if the F405 and H743 are the same physical size?
Hi Dave according to the Matek website specs the H743-Wing dimensions are 54 x 36 x 13 mm and the the F405-Wing is 56 x 36 x 13 mm so you will need to shorten the mount by a couple of mm.
Here is the link to the STL file: drive.google.com/file/d/1GYh0ApGIzbpzgUUYQzNodnAPy64kjzv0/view?usp=sharing
@@bluefish3607 Many thanks for the link Glen! I have successfully download the file and my mate has printed a 2mm shorter version of the plate for the H743-Wing FC.
But something to note if your next build includes an H743-Wing FC as the MatekSys website no longer lists the F405-Wing. The F405 bottom plate is plain so the two cam clips work well, but the H743 bottom plate is the PDB which has the power pads at the rear which obscures where the rear cam clip bears - the front is plain so that works OK.
@@davehrcfpv Ok Thanks Dave thats good to know.
@@davehrcfpv Is your email address the one that starts with X and ends with r?
@@bluefish3607 correct Glen
Nice video
Will your fc case fit matek f722 wing?
I think the F722 is slightly smaller I believe at 54 x 36 compared to the F405 56 x 36 but you could easily modify my F405 version to make it work quite easily. Do you have Tinkercad or Fusion 360 to do this?
@@bluefish3607 I have tinker cad but I can’t ungroup it .
Water based Polycrylic brushed on two or three full coats will also work to protect it. FYI
I know use E6000 thinned with toluene and brush that on and it works really well.
Dont forget the minimum voltage on the 10000 liion pack is 10V per their banggood listing! I had to adjust the esc a bit so that it didn't cut off early.
Yes thanks for reminding me but I will probably not go that low. I have flown my old XL with the LION and it launched fine and seemed to perform well. Let's see how it does on the new plane when I go for my long range record :-)
@@bluefish3607 time to plan a 1 way mission and meet the zohd somewhere downwind LOL
That,s a nice and clean build. How does the version 2 fly compared to the 1st version.? Version 1 has a terrible tendency to pitch up on high throttle which i find really annoying!
I cant say yet Kyle until I maiden it hopefully later this week. I had to change the motor thrust angle on my version 1 to correct the excessive pitch up on higher throttle. Hopefully they fixed that on the V2 we will soon find out 😀
@@bluefish3607 Fair enough. yes lets hope so. its a real pain in the ass.

Nice! I'm looking to buy one of these...
Did the foam armour work out well? I'd like to know the name of it if it works well.
I'm just starting out with RC planes - which parts would you say are the bare minimum to get going? Thanks!
Hi Jack the foam armour works well on wingtips and small areas but not so good to cover an entire plane. Just Google foam armour and you will find it. Its produced by a company called deluxe materials.
The bare minimum to get started with a plane is the plane itself motor esc radio receiver and transmitter. This will allow to fly line of sight and you can progress to FPV by adding a camera video transmitter and goggles as well as a flight controller and iNav.
You can get lots of help and ideas on the facebook group links in the video description.

Hello, I really like your video about the ZOHD Dart XL. I printed out most of the parts and installed them. I've only been doing this hobby for 6 months and I'm having a lot of trouble with my ground station. You have almost the same hardware as me. Would it be asking too much if I asked you for an allocation plan. I don't know how to connect the Teleflytiny. User manuals are only in English and videos on You tube are only in English.
