    I use a soldering iron and metal ruler to melt half way both sides wing and then I fold a sandpaper to smooth them and it works good

      I'll have to try that, thanks.

    I love this videos! Thanks very much for taking the time and effort.
    I find cutting a slot in the wing leading edge (to take the Futaba cable/s) is good for small foamies.On larger models the semi-circular (sic) cross-sectioned leading edge, hollowed out, can take a surprising amount of cable,flaps,ailerons,retacts,lights!, all easily accessible as its easily removable with a scalpel!.

      Thanks mate, slot cutting no doubt a better option! 😉These little gliders are great for experimenting with!

    These gliders are splendid for use as a basic airframe to experiment on!
    You'll need three Lidl gliders to complete my "Scaled Composites White Knight Two & SpaceShipTwo Launch System" though! 😆
    That'd be a fun project!

      Indeed they are, and cheap too. Get started on the "Scaled Composites White Knight Two & SpaceShipTwo Launch System" and let's see the video 😉

    Just a quick question did you have a problem where the brushed motors overheat because I Mande one and both motors overheated and melted the glue out of place

    • @bobflyman
      @bobflyman  Рік тому

      Wow, that's amazing! No I didn't have a problem with overheating. That must have been very hot. Was that with a 1s lipo and 55 mm propeller? I use 55mm props and about half of the motor is sticking out front in free air. I could imagine if the whole motor was in the foam it would get more hot?

    • @astr0yt344
      @astr0yt344 Рік тому

      I used a 1s lipo and 55mm props but I put the motors far inside the the wing so it got no air and the foam insulated the motors

  • @TrippyFPV469
    @TrippyFPV469 Рік тому

    great vid! Question: Did you connect the motors to the ESC in parallel or series?

    • @bobflyman
      @bobflyman  Рік тому +2

      Hi Nizar, In parallel. I'm not sure if they would work in series, each motor would only get 50% of the voltage supplied?

      Probably just Googled. Might be this AliExpress? www.aliexpress.com/item/32959840518.html?src=bing&aff_short_key=UneMJZVf&aff_platform=true&isdl=y&albch=shopping&acnt=135095331&isdl=y&albcp=554851195&albag=1306220947490970&slnk=&trgt=pla-4585238373891532&plac=&crea=81638863712723&netw=o&device=c&mtctp=e&Bing&PA_Bing_UK_PLA_PC%2FM_SFFC_ALL_MaxValue_20240204&All&Ultra%20Light%20Brushed%20ESC%20Single%20Way%205A%20or%2010A&msclkid=623700d7f4871603c12067be529ef137

    😂just picked up one of these this year any suggestions for something with 2 motors 2 servos and elrs ?

    • @bobflyman
      @bobflyman  5 місяців тому +1

      Good question mate, but what's an elrs, ah, good old Google! open-source radio control protocol. I guess you could build one of these. Get the glider for a £5 on Temu.

      ​@@bobflymanI'm up to the electronics and I'm unsure about the soldering of the 10a esc and the motors

    • @bobflyman
      @bobflyman  4 місяці тому

      These are brushed motors, I did say that and in the video description. Did you get an esc for brushed motors? They only have 2 wires for motor connections, positive and negative, you just make sure you connect so the motor and propellers are spinning the right way. If you have an Esc with red and black, for lipo power input, and then 3 black wires it's for a brushless motor. Won't work with brushed motors 🤔

    • @bobflyman
      @bobflyman  4 місяці тому

      Is that you asking in the Lidl Facebook group? The wiring is shown in my video! Electronics.

  • @zico3239

    to run the cables why no just cutting with a knife

    • @bobflyman
      @bobflyman  Рік тому

      It would have been easier. I wanted to hide the wires inside the wing.
