  • @SebastienChedalBornu
    @SebastienChedalBornu Місяць тому +2

    It's funny how you configured it like a plane. Usually motors are option on gliders so we put motors on a two or three position switch because you generally want to climb not to have little throttle. and the throttle is used for airbrakes/crowbars this way we have full control of the speed. But really nice réalisation thanks for sharing and for the build/tips

    • @coriscotupi
      @coriscotupi Місяць тому +1

      It's a matter of personal preference. I like to have the motor on the throttle channel, and airbrakes on two or three position switches. But I get it that not everyone enjoys this configuration.

    Beautiful work! Been out of the hobby for many many years but I was doing this same construction method, minus all the CNC stuff, 30 years ago. Never could get the finish on my wings to look as pretty right out of the bag though.
    I found over time I had problems with the carbon fiber delaminating from the foam after several years in storage. Is this a known issue and what is done now to keep that from happening?

    • @prestonengebretson5043
      @prestonengebretson5043 Місяць тому +1

      It is likely a Fiber Laser, as we have a 100w CO2 and it will not cut CF cloth. Let's hope he answers.

      Yes, I use CO2 laser 130w. max cutting power and speed 40mm/s. only thin carbon fabric can be cut, up to 80g/m2. 200g/m2 fabric definitely won't cut it anymore.
