One of our fellow members made a 3D printing of a nose cone designed to take an electric motor and modified this glider to use a foldable prop. It's a really nice glider!
Nice work! When you tested the wing stability at the end, it was skewed rather easily. Why not using a second carbon spar in the rear section of the mid wing? Would increase stability with little effort. Then also shrinking the covering would be a bit less risky in terms of accidential skewing.
Hello Marko. What is best type movement elevator, full movement or only back side movement? And in full type, where is pivot point respectively of the chord?! Thanks!
Hello I think in theory it is better if the whole stabilizer moves, but the construction of this mount is more complicated. So I recommend making the elevator behind the stabilizer, 100x easier😀😀😀
Hi MArko, beautiful work! What did you use to paint the ribs? Did you check how much weight the paint add? How did you attach the outer wings to the main wing?
Hello I used black matte spray paint. I didn't weight the difference. I just tried to put as little paint as possible. I connect the tips of the wing to the middle part with transparent tape
Just curious. How long did it take you to build each of the fuselage and the wings after you had laser cut the parts? It’s a bit difficult to tell when the video is sped up. :). Good job, and thanks for showing how building can be done with precut parts.
I'm so glad you like this plane. Unfortunately or fortunately I don't make them for sale. But I believe you will find a similar plane of the model shops. All the best to you
Holy moly this looks crazy good😮
thank you
Love the looks of it
Великолепная работа, очень аккуратно, мастер! :)) очень радунт внимание к мелочам.
Осталось ощущение что крыло на скручивание как-то.... не очень.

Very cool. Are there any pictures to share?
Stunning your have great build skills, Tip my hat to you Sir.
Bloody lovely mate👍

Hi, Thank you for your advice. I will remember and, if necessary, use it next time
Excellent work!
thank you
Great vid, really enjoyed!! 😉🤜🤛

Really nice !
Great work
Thank you
Great work. How much is the video sped up? (Just curious on how much time the build really took.) 😁
Hi Oliveira, video speed up about 1000%
Hi Marko. What diameter Balsa did you use for the fuselage ? It is not indicated in the .dxf either. Is it 5mm ?
I have the same question.
Hello Marko, where is locate the CG for this model, thanks
a good starting point would be 1/3 of the leading edge of the wing

The whole project took 5 days. This includes drawing too
Very nice plane you maked
thanks
Which laser cut machine are you using ?
Hi, Stepmores CO2 laser, 2500x1200 work area. 130w
Hello is this kit also for sale
