RC Glider SIMPLE LADY V3, Full Build From SCRATCH and MAIDEN. RC airplane 3D printed bungee hi start

[@iflymodels]

This is brilliant Marko! I tried to make your DLG from a couple years ago but failed epically. I think I will try this one!! Thank you for your amazing work.

[@TailSpinRCSpain]

Another beautiful creation from a master craftsman !

[@mikesrcgarage]

That build is beautiful and flies amazing! The endcap elevator/rudder control surface horns are genius! Very nice!

[@MarkoRoolaid]

thank you so much

[@flytobi7834]

Looks really well, as always! Great flying!

[@janatlmb2770]

I love that rig that you made for setting the foils' profiles in the right place.

[@MarkoRoolaid]

Ok, thank you very much

[@brucebadeau9906]

Your video was excellent, too ... maybe some links about how and why cliff soaring can build up these tremendous speeds ... I saw one a while back --- all very interesting. I am a graduate of the Lawrenceville School Class of 1965... I essentially introduced at that time model u-control airplanes, hand launched gliders and snow racers --- .020 and .049. There was latent interest and when I went out playing it started a land slide. A friend built me a single switch channel, radio control with a vacuum tube (HAHAH) with a rubber powered escapement in the plane --- rudder control only... It had to cycle through the right then left sequence. But the best fun was hand launched gliders. I was a good javelin thrower - still hold a school record for 10th grade ---3rd form --- so I could get some height. One Sunday I caught a Thermal and away the balsa glider went --- just 18" x 3"-inch wings, spruce body and plasticine balancing on the nose... About 2 minutes later and it was out of site and off the school's 600 acres of property... no return address... could not follow it. Earlier that year a friend took me to Lake Hurst NJ for the indoor nationals ... So interesting ... the gossamer planes with 60-minute flight times under 90-foot ceilings in the blimp hangars.... But I could only register 30 seconds --- and others for HL Gliders were getting 60 seconds --- reaching the 90 foot top... Something is really lost today when kids do not design, build and fly something --- there is lots of engineering to be learned from this experience -- now it is TikTok and seeing who does the stupidest things.

[@quentincampbell5865]

Found this while looking at Grabcad. The "Lady" part caught my attention. My first ever RC plane was the Gentle Lady in the late '90's. It was already an old design then (all Balsa frame with some plywood, standard tail). The Lady had many alterations after that and the only similarity to this one is the wing layout and no ailerons. Glad to see she still lives on. Wish I had a 3D printer then when I was building gliders, hehe. (actually, flying got me into 3DP). Nice job, thanks for the memories!

[@goldenfish77]

Wow, very inspiring video! I like this simple glider (just V-tail). Beautiful wings! Bravo, you have done!

[@робертПетров-с8д]

Хвост полное фиаско X образное лучше

[@k.o.0]

Another amazing creation! I am really enjoying all your latest videos that include flights. I was surprised that you opted for a removable dihedral, since you need to tape it up prior to every flight. I guess at some point you can simply decide to glue it. I love your mix of contemporary and modern building techniques. You are the #1 RC builder on KZbin!! Congratulations on yet another stunning build! You Rock!

Thank you so much for this wonderful comment. This kind of praise always makes the mood very good:)

What beautiful execution of your plan! At 1:35 what kind of plane are you using?

[@ColinWatters]

Take care using superglue. I used it a lot and became allergic to it. If I use it now I get bad hay-fever like symptoms for several days. Use a desk fan to blow the fumes sideways.

[@MarkoRoolaid]

ok, thanks

[@jbcl350]

So, I am making a mashup using wings and tail from the Simple Lady and fuselage from the Electric DLG(printed 25% larger) My first laser cutter project. The wings with the CF rods are an easy build, genius really. Just waiting on the 16mm CF main spar. Fuselage with motor is all done. V tail with servos is done and configured. Can't wait to fly it!

[@MarkoRoolaid]

Hi, wow, that's great to hear. Be sure to share a video or pictures, it would be great to see. Anyway, it's wonderful that my projects have really touched someone and they have tried to imitate them

[@erich3507]

Nice job! Do you share your stl? The V tail adaptator is very smart

[@irvingcuevas6689]

Hola Marko, de verdad que tus videos me encantan, actualmente estoy estudiando Ing. aeronáutica y tengo un proyecto de un planeador, en América no puedo encontrar el tubo de fibra de carbón que usas al menos todo es recto, tendrás el numero de parte para mandarlo a pedir a Europa? Saludos.

[@jpebeflying781]

Espetáculo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@franekmalinski]

Hi is possible to throw this glider from turnover holding glider for wing ?

[@MarkoRoolaid]

I understand that you mean a DLG-like launch. The answer is no

[@johanb8113]

Hi Marko, nice design, congratulations. I ask why you used the CF 18 x 8? Is it possible to modify it to a single standard size? In this part of the world those types of tubes are not found.

[@MarkoRoolaid]

You can still replace it, but you have to make sure it's not too heavy. Otherwise, the CG will not be in place

[@johanb8113]

Is it possible that you can provide me with the editable file to redesign the thickness of the carbon tube of the fuselage? I have thought about putting a 10 or 12 mm tube

[@AKlion_ru]

Tell me which camera worked in the air from the glider wing

[@MarkoRoolaid]

Hi, DJI Action 2

[@fabrizioarobbio4357]

Great job !!! Could you explain how the wing is attached to the fuselage? Do you use screws directly screwed into the pla fuselage without a threaded insert or nut? Thank you !!

[@MarkoRoolaid]

Hi, bolts and impact nuts, look here kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYqaiZ-KZb6Sm5Isi=NO0dOcqjBRISwONu&t=307

[@s_cycle1921]

Bloody marvellous. Again! Where do you find the time? Nice use of the Bambu X1C. It did not quite change my life, but its as close as I have to a star trek replicator - excellent machine.

[@yodaiam1000]

Really nice. Beautiful looking plane. Just out of curiosity, do you get any adverse roll with rudder input? The V-tails wants to roll the plane in the opposite direction of the turn but it is easily compensated for with ailerons but you don't have ailerons. The wings might be just so big they just resist the roll tendency?

[@MarkoRoolaid]

If there are no ailerons, the wing tips must be up, which is how automatic stabilization occurs. As in free-flight aircraft

[@AndreDoerfer]

Great creation! I’ve been interested in the CNCs. Can you share what CNC machine are you using for your builds?

[@MarkoRoolaid]

hi, All my CNC machines were bought here www.stepmores.com/

[@MarkoRoolaid]

This aircraft is extremely easy to fly and control. It practically flies by itself and is perfect for beginners.

Hello Marko! is it possible that you share some details about the print settings for the fuselage parts ? (vase mode for nose ? , and for the other parts, infill percentage, wall numbers etc ? ) Great thanks. have a good day, and congrats for your job !

[@MarkoRoolaid]

The nose cone is made with Vase mode, the rest normally. Fuselage 2 layers and 3% infill. I'm going to try and experiment myself, many details straight into the trash :) But as usual, as strong as possible and as light as possible

what is the name of the height sensor that shows how high the glider was?

Hi I would like to have your opinion I would like to reinforce lwpla but without weighing it too much because the lwpla and really not solid what do you think of covering with Epoxy resin then sanding then painting? Thank you for your opinion ;)

Hi, This is a very good idea. I would do exactly the same

Marko I’m 65 years old turning 66 in a few days would you build one for me for my birthday. I don’t have laser cutter or a 3d printer or maybe you can just make the parts and I could assemble it.

Marko. Can you provide pdf files for the glider? I want to build the old fashion way. Thanks

I am not going to make a PDF version separately. But you can definitely find a program that opens dxf and then you can also convert it to pdf format.

[@thomasshelley4617]

That's a thing of beauty! What kind of winch/bungee do you use?

My bungee hi start system is already 20 years old. It was probably produced by the ROBBE company. But the rubber has a diameter of 5mm and a length of 30m and I use fishing line 0.6mm 140kg, length 120m
