You put a big smile on my face when I could hear you excitement with the first launches 😊 And what a performer your MD2 is, even in such damp, cloudy conditions 👍 I can see some great thermal flights coming from you with this soon.....
Thank you Carl! Yeah, it's crazy how exciting it is to start flying a new glider. I was very happy, now I can sense what this hobby should be about... ;) Yes, this rainy, calm weather came in handy for a little test. Then the sunnier and windier times will come...
Thank You for your words! You helped me a lot so that I could live these moments. Thank You very much for your help and I hope you will also be happy to throw your new 1.5m ship. I'm looking forward to it, it will be a great experience for everyone!
Thank You for your comment! I was very happy. I didn't think this little glider could fly so well. Although factory production has to apply somewhere. ;-)
Thank you Phil! Yes, it's unbelievable how "easy" it is to start with such a factory DLG. It has no air resistance. I hope I don't do anything with it in the future that would spoil this perfect shape. Now that I think about it, wow, what could your BAMF DLGs be like.
congrats on a fantastic maiden. I'm so happy for you that your really loving your new dlg. I can't wait for you to get some sunny skies and grab some air 😁
Thank You for your words! It was a great maiden, I think. I have to add some trimming after the tests. We will see how it can catch thermals on a cloudy and sunny day.
@@goldenfish77 Hi! I've been interested in DLG for around a year now. (you may know me as Hungoo1 as well :) Hungoo for Hungarian lol) You could say, watching your flights has re-inspired me! Your a really smooth flyer and I'm learning from your videos. I'm trying to learn to fly (smoothly) and enjoy building them too! I'm working on a REF 1m at the moment with a Synergyll wing. Hungarian is not my native language, but I can understand it by listening to it and I've eaten enough csirkepaprika for a village...lol sunny skies!👍
@@amonus-air2160 Hi! Thank You, that's clear now. I understand, I was also very impressed by the world of DLG. Now I'm thinking in terms of construction, seeing the construction of this Mini Dart 2, that it should be solved how the plane of the wing matches the fuselage, so that a removable wing can always be installed in exactly the same way. 100% accuracy is very important here. How do you attach the wing? I'm thinking about buying a 3D printer to make a POD and pilon for tails...What do you think about it?
Absolutely AWESOME! I bought this glider a while back and still haven't built it but after seeing how well yours performs I cant wait to fly mine!!!! Thanks for sharing 😃
I am very glad to read it! I flew with this glider yesterday. I once again admired the gliding performance of this little glider. I hope you find a lot of joy in it too!
Yes, it is a very interesting theme. We can do trimming just calm weather. I just trimmed this glider so I do not use any plus weight in the nose or the tails. It can glide an epic way. I am just waiting for a suitable weather for flying. ;)
Nagyon köszönöm neked még egyszer, hogy hozzásegítettél egy ilyen szépen megmunkált gliderhez! Hihetetlen, hogy milyen nagy teljesítmény van ebben a kis gépben.
Incredible, the first test glide says it all 🤩 And this is only the glass layup? I started some practicing with a low budget model, but this looks like a whole different level. Eventually something like this will be in my hands too, I'm pretty sure already. 🤩😄
Hi, I don't know what you meant? What remote control do you have? It is difficult to explain the settings of each flight mode and the launch mode on the remote control, but there is a description that you can follow to set it yourself. I found such a page for you: rc-soar.com/edgetx/basics/flightmodes/index.php And one like this: www.rc-thoughts.com/2019/07/dlg-launch-and-zoom-mode/ This is a very useful little description, I remember I also used this: www.armsoar.com/pages/initial-glider-setup I hope that it helps for you!
@@goldenfish77 Thank you for your time and effort directing me to these sites. I'm familiar with EdgeTx, what I was asking was not the tutorial for particular radio, bet control surface ideology. For example what means launch mode? Both ailerons a little bit down as in case of flaps? But I will try to find those answers in your links. Thanks again.
@@Mr.Laidukas Yes, but after launch mode you can set a zoom mode immediately with a time switch. So you activate launch mode, then you toss away the glider and then you release the launch mode switch and then a timer will automatically start approx. for 2-3 seconds, which allows the plane to fly high with the least air resistance by lowering all the wings. Good luck for the first flights!
This was the GFK or CFK Version? Just wondering about the glide time when ITS gfk. I think its the GFK Design in White, really your Video confinced me to buy It 2 :-000 Thanks for this Impression.
Hello, Your video is convincing.. I went ahead and purchased the MD2. I’m new to DLG and I am curious as to which protocol and receiver, you chose to use for your model! Many thanks 👍 Pierre
Great to see this as I'm about to buy this glider, I'm new to discus launch and use opentx like you do, can you explain your launch mode setup on your radio and how you do the launch sequence please? Also which servos are you using in this glider. Thank you
Thank you for your comment! In this model, I installed 4 EMAX ES9051 servos according to the description after minor modifications. I read in forums how to reduce the height of the servo if it does not fit in the nose part. I removed the plastic cover and wrapped the servo housing with insulating tape to prevent dust from entering. I wrote a self-made program for the startup mode and flight modes, many people do this differently. For me, the operating principle is that in the launch preset (launch mode) position, the flaps extend slightly downwards, the rudder slightly to the right (I throw the plane with my right hand), and the horizontal tail extends slightly upwards. As soon as I toss the glider, I almost immediately release the launch preset button (this is a rocker switch that I installed on the TX16S from the right side to the left side), then the "zoom mode" comes into effect approx. for 3 seconds, (all tails return to the plane, the flaps can be slightly higher than the center position. This lasts until the plane reaches the top point.
After watching your videos it pushed me to build mine. I posted my videos on UA-cam aswell my setup and first glides. I dont have my launch peg in yet so just a few hand throws. Flies so good and as you said yourself NO DRAG!!! Thanks for the inspiration @goldenfish77

Those molded gliders are incredible ! We can hear the satifaction in your voice ;-).

Fantastic glider!!! Very, very, very beautiful🙂
Thank you for your comment! Yes, I agree with you.
@@goldenfish77 , how much does it weigh?
It is about 140g, but I have to use some wiegt in the tails to be balanced. My battery is too heavy in the nose.
@@goldenfish77, Good luck with your bird🖐️
an awesome start - I think you hit the nail on the head (low drag) regarding the factory ships!

Lovey little glider..I hope all those trees dont kill the thermals though ;[ Looks like a pretty hard place to fly..
Thank you! Yes, I like to fly above that building next to the park. It can cause some hard lifts.

Hi, I am glad to hear that! I choose the Radiomaster TX16s controller with OPENTX protocol and an FS2A 4ch RX with 1s LiPo.

@@goldenfish77is the location hard to get thermal becouse of a lot of tree there?
