How to make Hydro Slow Flyer RC Plane DIY

[@retkimora]

I built this. Flies really slow and takes off from water just like in video. Mine weighs 243g with battery. I used a bit different foam and hot glue everywhere but it all works. Also made wing two-part so it fits better inside a car. It would be even slower and take off quicker if it was more light. Thank you.

[@tharunkarthikeyan8911]

perfect! you blew my mind with the total weight of the plane, its size and slow flying capabilities. Love it. Looking Forward For a realistic glider build

[@oevergriend]

Great plane, I love it because it flies very slow .. It gives me more time to react as a newbee pilot . I definately will build this one

[@tejkothesausage]

Im new in this hobby and i need a winter project 😁 perfect for me 😁

[@BikingVikingHH]

It looks like you are using some flooring tile as a cutting board which looks great, but the material will instantly dull the tip of a knife. It has particles in the synthetic material that prevent it from getting worn out that wear metal down like sandpaper.

[@RCscale101]

Amazing to watch and wonderful skills! Every step is so neatly done. Bravo!

@NumaVIG excellent project. Is it possible to load it additional 90g of equipment? Or it needs to be reinforced/scaled up?

[@NumaVIG]

not recommend

[@ljnrf]

Don't seem to have 3mm XPS (the orange foam) underlay in sheets here in California, all I can find is rolls of XPS and looks too flexible. Any suggestions? The Depron is the white foam? Could I use 3mm Depron for the thin parts and 6mm Depron for the thick ones?

[@comfort_in_discomfort]

Buy the foam from flite test.

[@ljnrf]

@@comfort_in_discomfort they have the white 5mm (3/16th) foam, white 8.5mm but I don't see any of the 3mm. They have something called "Water Resistant by Adams" but nowhere I can see do they say how thick and it looks a lot stiffer and heavier than 3mm XPS. Is that 3mm? Odd they don't list its thickness or weight.

[@comfort_in_discomfort]

@@ljnrf True. The flute test foam is 5mm with a waterproof paper on both sides. Stiff, but not lightweight.

[@bokor2727]

@@comfort_in_discomfort Out of stock!!!!!

[@pabloricardodetarragon2649]

Yes, you can use the Depron, an extruded styrofoam around 20kg/m3 or any similar styrofoam (extruded with small bubbles). You have also the EPP sheets used in aeromodelism like the Graupner Vectro which is even better than the Depron (easier to fold, and far stronger to dents).

[@raeesrj4946]

Can we make all of it parts with only CARDBOARD

[@ronaldd2154]

Now put laminated solar cells across the wings 👍 even more run time, and light weight super capacitor for instant charging.

joe woodchuck Do you also find the foam he uses there? If so, what do you search for? The only foam I can find like that is at Home Depot or Lowe’s and it is like $60 or $70 bucks for 100sqft

[@joewoodchuck3824]

@@Raycefan I'm not familiar with every type of foam material, but he does mention "other aeromodeling foam" which as far as I've known has been Dollar Tree foam board. You can get it elsewhere too but always at a higher price. If you don't have a Dollar Tree close enough then get it at Walmart. It bends and cuts very nicely.

Hi I have the plane finished but have a question. With the point of gravity correctly ( slightly nose heavy?) I tried to handthrow as a glider but it stalls and after that crashes nose down. Do you have a suggestion?

[@NumaVIG]

it can't fly like a glider, airfoil drag is too high

[@oevergriend]

@@NumaVIG THanx . so I can only fly this with motor power! that explains.......

[@rcpowres]

[@joewoodchuck3824]

That's 183 grams including motor and battery? I suppose this could also be a glider without power.
