Multiplex Blizzard - Time Lapse Build

[@x3mperformace]

I know it's an old video. But. This looks like a really plesure to build. It looks really solid, a lot of re-enforcing in the kit, but well sorted in the light end of the scale. Beautifully engineered. And it's a sleek and fast plane. Great timelaps. 🙂

[@bavarian_rc]

Hi, I am happy to see that also my older videos are still watched. The build was really quite simple and the instructions from the kit were super clear. The strength added with all the re-enforments is quite significant. The only remaining issue is that the ailerons start to flutter when going into a vertical dive with a speed roughly above 250 km/h ... but hey who needs that 😉 I am still flying the Blizzard a lot and after around 150 flights and 2 crashes with subsequent repairs I still enjoy it a lot. If you haven't already seen it, there is also a flight video of the Blizzard: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5zVc2ahf7CFgsk Thanks again for your comment! Cheers!

Just bought one of these kits, your video is very helpful, Thank You!

[@bavarian_rc]

Great that it helped. You‘ll love flying it... also check out my flight video

[@nThanksForAllTheFish]

One thing I did not realize about these kits is that the decals provide a critical role in the structural stiffness of the aircraft and are not just there for decoration.

[@bavarian_rc]

Never looked at it like that but you are certainly right!

[@Frosti4444]

Schönes Video! Bin auf das Flugvideo gespannt! Du hast da ja immer ne super Location 👍 Schöne Grüße aus Zell am See...

[@bavarian_rc]

Danke! Hab am Wochenende noch ein paar Flüge mit onboard Kamera gemacht. Damit hab ich jetzt genug Material fürs Flugvideo ... brauche ich nur noch Zeit zum schneiden 😜

[@Flybrei]

Wieder ein schönes Bauvideo. Da fließt ganz schön Zacki rein.

[@bavarian_rc]

Ja der gute Zacki klebt super, auch da wo er nicht soll 😜👉🤚

[@stewartkeeble2371]

Very nice,can I ask your motor set up!! 👍

[@bavarian_rc]

Thanks. My setup: Motor: Torcster Brushless Gold A3542/4-1460 Propeller: Aeronaut CAM Carbon 9,5x6

[@kev4354]

Nice Video looks like a nice foamy V-tail

[@bavarian_rc]

Thanks! I really love this plane. For a foamy it flies absolutely fanatstic 😎😁

[@이현서-d3e]

The sense of speed is considerable. I want to know the motor size and folding prop size.

[@bavarian_rc]

Yes this plane can go really fast 😁 The motor is a Torcster Brushless Gold A3542/4-1460. I am using an Aeronaut CAM Carbon 9,5 x 6 folding prop.

good job brother

[@bavarian_rc]

Thanks a lot !

[@DZARO]

Believe it or not, I have the exact same cutters from KNIPEX. Best tools for the price!

[@bavarian_rc]

Ha ha, that's a coincidence. I love them, they are really good quality.

[@sbogdan1]

It's very nice looking Too bad Blizzard is no longer available The multiplex should resume production

[@bavarian_rc]

Yes, I think Multiplex should either resume production or develop a version 2. I was lucky that I could find some spare parts on eBay. So in case I break something I can still repair it. The Blizzard is one of my planes that I still fly a lot.

[@YvesWinkel]

Hi. Can you please tell me what kind of CA you used? And maybe a CA kicker? (Accelerator) Nice build. I've found also a new kit. I hope to put in a setup put together from HK. Best regards.

[@bavarian_rc]

I used the CA from Multiplex that is specifically for Elapor, it is called „Zacki Elapor“. I recommend using the medium viscous one and in case of need to come back with the thin CA called „Zacki Super liquid“. Any normal CA will damage the foam! The kicker I used is „MitreBond Aerosol Activator“, but I guess any activator should work with it. And be sure to wear gloves 😜 as you can see in the video I started wearing them after glueing the first part... Enjoy the build and the flying. It‘s really a blast! Just be careful with too steep dives, it tends to flutter at high speed. My flight video will hopefully be finished soon. Greetings from Bavaria

[@nicodo56]

CA kickers (accelerators) are quite unhealthy! Over the years I built quite a bunch of Multiplex foamies (Easy Star, Easy Glider, Heron, Blizzard). Always used Zacki and Zacki Super liquid - never any activator. Even after years of flying, all glued connections are in perfect condition. You cannot ask for more. Perfect match!

Great work bro 🤜love from India🇮🇳

[@bavarian_rc]

Thanks and greetings to India 😃👍

[@Rundumsfliegen]

Ui ui ui son Kollegen flieg ich auch 👍🤣

[@bavarian_rc]

Ist einer meiner Lieblingsflieger. Hat mittlerweile leider schon 2 Crashs hinter sich, einmal hab ich ihn aus den Augen verloren, das zweite mal hat sich die Motorverschraubung gelöst ... den Motor mit zugehöriger Rumpfspitze suche ich heute noch 😂 Fliegt aber inzwischen mit 'nem Ersatzrumpf wieder. Die ganz Story gibt's zum nachlesen auf meinem Instagram Kanal bavarian.rc

[@juwain3]

I still have 2 Blizzards kits in stock , so its not the last build ;=)

[@bavarian_rc]

Yes, they are far from gone… I also found another one to put in stock 😜

[@Henry097-t5s]

Den Motor und Akku von deinem lidel fliger Projekt gibt es nicht mehr. Meine Frage ist welchen Motor und Akku man stattdessen nehmen könnte.

[@bavarian_rc]

Den Graupner Motor von meinem Lidl Flieger gibt‘s leider nicht mehr da Graupner insolvent ist. Du kannst aber einfach einen anderen 2218 Motor mit rund 1200kv nehmen, z.B. Den Emax GT2218 / 09 1100kv oder den Flite Test Radial C. Als Akku würde ich nen 1600mAh 3S nehmen.

[@Henry097-t5s]

Ok vielen Dank.

[@Henry097-t5s]

Haben sie vielleicht auch noch einen Tipp für den esc und für einen preisgünstigen Sender

[@bavarian_rc]

Für den Einstieg wäre als Fernsteuerung die Spectrum DX6e nicht schlecht. Als ESC würde ich was günstiges aus dem Bereich 20A nehmen... bei dem Motor Setup vom Lidl Devil fließen rund 10A. Kleine Frage: ist das Dein erster Flieger? Wenn ja dann würde ich von dem Projekt abraten... das ist was als 3. oder 4. Flieger

[@Henry097-t5s]

Bavarian RC oh ok. Ja das ist mein erster Flieger. Dachte das wäre so ganz gut da es nich ganz so teuer ist. Was könnte ich den. Stattdessen bauen.

[@clockmakerify]

Я просто у захваті, надзвичайно продумана конструкція, ніяких довгих тяг керування, а на крилах вони навіть прикриті аеродинамічними накладками.

[@bavarian_rc]

Yes, the Blizzard is a great kit. It's a pitty that Multiplex stopped producing it. The Blizzard is still one of my favourite RC planes and I already have more than 150 flights ... and some "minor" crashs and repairs with it.

[@blindmonkey870]

I wanna the Bavaria divorce with entire Germany and will become independent state in politics.
