1m GF DLG-part.5-Wing Joint, Peg installation, Tails to boom.

The A to Z of building my 1m dlg plane!
It's not a perfect build, but it will blow your mind by its performance ! ! !
For a 51.5 wing, to get a 12deg slope, you will need to raise the tip 10.6cm
Calculate the slope: rechneronline....

TKS Buddy! A realy apreciate your videos! ❤️🤩✅👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@mizuroku1]

Thank you for showing me the detailed size. It will be a reference when I make it next time. Even so, it looks like it will be lightly finished!

[@afilos]

Thank you, it will be under around 110g, almost finished now!

[@flyingouty]

my wing got heavy because in this country that I live in I didn’t find fabric less than 110 g. I’m going to ask in another country for a thinner one

[@afilos]

It's ok, It will fly, but it will not be that floaty, but good for strong winds!

[@serigrafiainiciandodicas3312]

my wing got 105 grams..can i use it or think it won’t be good..how many centimeters of diero has the wing thanks congratulations for the video

[@afilos]

Thank you, 17,5cm for both wings or 24⁰. 105g just for the wing is heavy, but you can give it a try. Total weight should be up to 120g max.

[@Neocro]

a filos, you say 12° on each side of wing, 24° in total, ok, for us newbies, what hight on end of the wings is that?

[@afilos]

For a 51.5 wing, to get a 12deg slope, you will need to raise the tip 10.6cm. Check out the link in the videos description.

@@afilos thank you. i am so sory i didn't see that 'calculator' :(

[@skinnyguy3184]

Hay mate, with the vertical stabilizer which way does the aerofoil face left or right side? Im a right hand thrower like your self

[@afilos]

Hi, airfoil faces the peg, flat side of the v-tail faces the side you install the servo horn.

[@skinnyguy3184]

@@afilos bugger i have mine the other way around, will it make a noticeable difference?

[@afilos]

@@skinnyguy3184 don't worry about it, just fly it and when you damage it from use, you can get it right the next time! Have fun, post a video..

[@billyposthumus91]

Would you be interested in selling this as a kit?

[@afilos]

Nope! I just do it in my free time, which at the moment is limited. Anyway what is there to kit, wooden dowels and hand cut foam? This is for you guys to give it a go and share your builds with me :-), I am just sharing the know how!
