    Marko, it looks like the fuselage sides are 3mm balsa with 3mm lite-ply doublers in the nose area. Is that correct? And the materials for the stabilizer/elevator and rudder fin are balsa or lite-ply? I'm assuming balsa but hard to tell from the video and not called out on the plans. I'm adapting your drawings for my (in Canada) imperial thicknesses, but just looking for clarification on materials. Thanks for posting this! Will put one together for this summer :-)

    Beautiful glider you built Marko and it flies so well. I built a Gentle Lady years ago...looks a bit similar to yours. I was particularly interested in learning how to make and use, as shown in the video, your "Old school glider launch". Do you have any instructions and or video how you set up yours? It appears you got a lot of height. I would be pleased to learn how to launch mine GL as you did. Thanks

    • @markoroolaid
      @markoroolaid  2 роки тому +1

      The location of the hook is very important. It should be located in front of the 7mm center of gravity. If the hook is on the front side, the start is low, but if you move the hook behind, the plane will go to the loop. It requires practice and experience

    • @berenddekker4345
      @berenddekker4345 2 роки тому +1

      @@markoroolaid My GL had already a designated spot for the hook. What I am interested in is the launch mechanism i.e. length of rope...do you have somebody run with the rope or did you use an elastic cord? From the video it appears somebody is rolling out a very long rope. Anything you can add, and or confirm to get my plane launched is much appreciated. Thanks

      I have seen that build too. But bones looks abit big for me. 2m wingspan is a good size for me to and really if i am honest i am happy with just elevator and rudder. As long as it has a great gliding speed/rate i would be happy. I have a cnc machine but i don't have a printer which is also another reason. Do u think the simple lady could handle being electric? Or would i have to put carbon in the fuse and wing to stiffen it up?

    what is the material that u are using to cover the frame of the wings, ive been 3d printing for a couple yrs an have always used it to help with building my foam rc planes but ive always seen ppl do this but never knew what materials they was using an it wasn't pointed out in the videos, have no hobby shops local or anywhere i can even take them once i build them so i m always looking for an area large enough to fly them but ive always wanted to build one that was completely 3d printed but if i actually went through with it i dont know if a large plane like that would require a larger place to fly but i assume it would an building one like this seems like it would help keep weight down so ive been considering doing it like that now but have alot to figure out b4 i go that directions.
