At the last launch one edge of the wing crossbars separated from the side of the fuselage and the balsa wall next to the wing cracked a little. I improved and strengthened these parts. - Наука та технологія
Super glider!!! very good gliding and easy thermaling for sure!
Thank You very much! I hope that I can fixed the wings to the POD strongly for harder launches.
wow!...beautiful lift from that wing and nice overall build. I like your approach my friend, build light and reinforce as needed. Congrats on a successful maiden! 😎👍
Thank You very much! Today I was the same. I have to reinforcement the wings fixing parts and the POD. I will test it soon again.
it looks like this is shaping up to be a great bird - nice weight and good flying characteristics so far!
Thank You Phil! I will do some tests today to find a right way its flying.
Fantastic Peter.
Thank You Daniel! I try to modify this glider to be a better launcher.
Well done on another successful DIY DLG 👍 270g is quite an achievement and it certainly looked more floaty than your 1st 1.5m DLG. Looking forward to seeing some more when you've strengthened the fuselage. Nice to see you flying. I'm experiencing a very cold, damp winter here in the UK at the moment.
Thank You very much Carl! I managed not to break the wing so far, but there are still problems with attaching the wing to my fuselage so that I can achieve higher takeoffs with it. But I already tried hand-to-hand javelin throws today and I'm experiencing pretty good results. I hope that even after a smaller nose weight and the braces, I won't go much over 280 grams. I hope you also manage to fly soon and I look forward to the presentation of your 4-channel glider.
@@goldenfish77 My 4 channel DLG is ready, but just waiting for better weather conditions 🌄
@@RCSoaringDiaries I am happy to hear it! Yes, a calm weather is the best for maiden flight. 👍
Happy New Year!
Thank You! I wish You the best my friend too!
@@goldenfish77 Thanx, Bro!
gratulation, es war sehr schön anzusehen. wenige flieger haben so ein schönes flugbild. leider sieht es an anderen orten meist ganz anders aus. gruß aus wittenberg
Danke für deinen Kommentar! Ja, ich hoffe, dass dieser Schirm in Zukunft große Höhen erreichen kann!
