I saw your Dash 8 video first, and it reminded me of a book I read when I was a kid about these kinds of planes. I remembered reading about ROG and ROW planes in the book, and then found this video mentioning an ROG. I read the book back in the late 70s, and hadn't heard the term "ROG" used again until now, 45 years later. I'll see if I can find the name of the book. Thanks for the fun videos!

Great video, super project, even really nice music. GOOD for you ! I am goofing with just flying models not scale and love the idea of the multi-motor "A" frame since I was a kid (60's) Left hand props were a bugger... but now with UAVs LH props are everywhere. Still have to convert them over and they are dense and heavy but that helps in a tractor project but gawsh awful in pushers. Keep'em flying.

Thanks for the comment. I'd be interested to hear how a twin pusher with drone props flies, I'll bet you could get it going. There are many ways of doing left hand props that are less time-intensive than the traditional carving method -- laminated-fan, formed over a cylinder, or there are even people 3D printing out there... however you choose to do it, go for it.

That would make a gorgeous light R/C park flyer! Suggest having the props counter-rotate outwards (at the top) for more stable flight. Several full -scale aircraft do this- the Lockheed P-38, Henschel 129, and Convair Model 48 Charger.

Thanks for the comment. I switched this plane from two RH plastic props to counter-rotating over the top balsa, and the climb was much more straight.

Thanks Wally! How do you calculate the number of braiding winds relative to the thickness and length of the total loop?
@sandfac3427
@sandfac3427 25 күн бұрын
Hey Steve, thanks for the comment. There are different philosophies out there about this, but people often specify a certain number of turns per inch to start, and then tighten if needed (rubber is not suspended after unwinding). I tend to do 150-200 forward turns each loop for a 20"-30" long motor, Wally often does a little tighter -- 300 turns or so.

I built one of those when it was published in Model Builder Magazine back in the 80's as I recall. We flew it outdoors in calm air but with no D/T it was thermal bait for sure! I used to love the full size plans in MB magazine back in those days.
