From Aer-O-Tec-
We had been working many years now on this project but finally our partners and producer of this model came up with this high quality glider. it was worth waiting for it !
IKURA features F3B-technology with high strength and low weight , highest quality and superb design with a scale-like look and t-tail configuration. Fuselage is big enough for electro outrunner motors and 6s-battery. Latest airfoil design and elegant look makes it a unique glider !
Similar to our best seller ORCA, IKURA has changeable wingtips for easy transport and variability for different wing spans and tiplets.
You can fly IKURA on the slope as a pure glider or on the flat field soaring from winch launching or after start with electro motor.
We had many testflights and the performance is fantastic as it is the look: IKURA stands apart from all other model designs.
To fulfill all pre-orders we are offering IKURA in 2016 only in this white-red-grey design pattern and strong carbon construction for all round flying. Later we will be ready to accept also personal colour designs and different construction demand.
Flight Comp Notes-
We are very impressed with the quality and looks of the Ikura! A truly stunning design, we love the detail! All the parts are very stiff and the craftsmanship is outstanding. There are dual ballast tubes in each wings. Elevator servo is mounted directly in the stab for a clean and direct setup. The fuselage is huge! There is a room in the fuse for your E-setup and batteries. As well there is plenty of room for any telemetry or GPS equipment you may want to install.
Details:
fuselage with installed cables for elevator servo.
fuselage in 2.4 construction ( glas-kevlar, boom in carbon )
ready installed linkage for rudder
new technology for integrated gap-sealing of flaps and ailerons
we recommend KST-servos with iDS-linkage

Looks GREAT!
Excellent build video! I like the use of your 3d printer.
Thanks! It's almost ready to fly!
Nice job Ali, as always!
Great Rocket!
Is it an inrunner (low efficiency, high power) motor? This motor will produce a lots of heat! If you use LiIon 18650 batteries which are the best for long runs and multiple use, you have to consider that if you use the cheap $3 3000mAh LG ones, you can only use 5-10A. If you overload them they even won't power your BEC. In my experience the optimal configuration is 4S with a direct drive 1000kV motor.
Thought I posted a while back, but I don't see it so I'll try again. Would I be able to get a copy of the file to print you rx/servo tray?
Hi, I have put links to all the files in the description of this vid.
@@flightcomp Thank you
What program did you use to draw your servo tray so that you could 3D print it?
So your rx battery... do you leave it in when its in storage? Seems it would be a challenge to take out after each day of flying... (for safety purposes) ? Or is it not an issue with the Li-Ion... I've always taken mine out of the plane and stored in an ammo container... just curious... nice glider...
The panasonic Li-Ion cells are extremely stable and are not very picky when it comes to storage charge. In my F3J models, they live in the nose and never come out, same with the Ikura. If it was a Lipo I would remove it, but no needed in this case.
