- This is my third attempt to flight the Volantex ASW28. 2.54m wingspan.
It is impressive in the air. Is a bit hard to see with the clouds as background, but if you are looking for a big glider, this is a great option.
Nothing beats that feeling.Never give up.
I never do, not until the plane is completely destroyed.
It is the same that happend to me, 2 crashes on maiden. First one straight into the ground, and tor off the rudder, put in nylon hinges, second launch, rudder off again. I discoverd that the giro I was useing was actually giving down elevator on takeoff. Now I start without giro, just AS3X This glider is not very durable. on a landing it got hit by a sudden cross wind and flipt over, tor all the control hinges and pulled the tail off, has been all repaired again
I have the smaller 2000mm asw 17 from Volantex, a way beter glider in my experience
BTW nice flying ✈ ✈
If you attached a AA battery either side of the tail under the rear wing you can leave the pilot in and the battery can be placed in the intended position the CG is stable with this amount of weight on the rear and can be flown with the pilot in place
I’ll try it next time. Thanks for the comment.
Congrats on working out the gremlins & getting in a good flight. I'm building mine now & am replacing all hinges with Dubro nylon ones. Never was a fan of stock foam or CA hinges. Have to say though, I had to turn the sound off. Just couldn't listen to that endlessly repetitious, and (to me anyway), irritating music bed. Just because it's a video doesn't mean it absolutely has to have music in the background. Just my opinion.
Got it, I appreciate the feedback. I’ll try to lower the volume during the flight video. I am not the most eloquent person, especially when I’m concentrating on a maiden flight. That’s one of the reasons I put music during flight time. Thank you very much for the comment.
