Scratch built DLG glider -Linkage and maiden flight-

[@geekroel]

Awesome Scrathcbuilt. Thx for making video!

[@gfortiz5544]

Beautiful! Excellent and professional. If I only had the patience and time.

[@markwest3150]

Have been watching all the build videos and just amazed at your skill in producing a beautiful glider, well done, you are an inspiration to me.

[@peterismobiel]

Watched all your videos. Thanks very much for sharing.

[@goldenfish77]

Thank You very much, especially for your videos on the wing design, construction (the wing profile templates 👌) and its vacuuming, and the data posted on the online interface. I just finished the plane recently and maybe I managed to set it up. Thank You again and I wish You many more joyful minutes of DLG flying! ✌

Have you ever thought about building a F5J plane...?...this would be a cool new step by step tutorial... ;-)

[@rolandfleig2004]

Thanks very good Videos

[@gasperbucinel]

Very nice!

[@PALbub]

finally done, good job :)

[@studiomoon2000]

Perfect job

Great!!!! Thank you.

[@fredericboulanger2711]

Un grand merci pour toutes vos vidéos ! J'ai beaucoup appris ! 👍 Mais on ne voit pas comment fabriquer le tube du fuselage ...😕

[@kousakunin2008]

As for the boom, I buy it from the website below. That’s the only part I don’t build by my self. www.hyperflight.co.uk/products.asp?code=CARBON-BOOM-18-8&name=18mm-8mm-x-1m-tapered-carbon-boom

Super

[@R.B_B]

Nice see all the work in flight! Congrats. You use spektrum radio? What receiver you using?

[@kousakunin2008]

I use JR RG612BX receiver.

[@jurijblazin7835]

I finally finished mine DLG according to your instructions. It has 275g but flies well. what is the CG? Currently I have it on first third of the wing (55mm). I had to trim it a little bit UP with the elevator (1mm up)...is this because of an angle of attack or because I have CG to far ahead?

[@kousakunin2008]

Congratulations! It depends on your taste. I think a little rear side might be better between 37%(61mm) to 40%(66mm). You can refer Dr. Mark Drela's method below. www.charlesriverrc.org/articles/supergee/cg_trim.pdf

[@jurijblazin7835]

@@kousakunin2008 thank you for this :)

[@jurijblazin7835]

One more question. What should be the best settings?…currently my Cruise is 0mm, thermal 4mm down and speed 2mm ailerons up. Brake is about 35mm. For no normal flying aileron goes 14mm up and 12mm down.

[@djodjotje]

Good work, did you have flight logs ?

this music is horrible cant watch this video with this sound

[@bracesport]

very nice - I am embarking on a polyhedral DLG at the moment - I like your wing wiring connector I may need to borrow that - your tail must be light as you only have two servos in the nose to balance it out - I am undecided whether to put 4 servos in the wing or just two for the ailerons and four inboard - I am using a lot of your techniques, but also a few of my own 3D printed mould ideas - forum.alofthobbies.com/index.php?threads/polyhedral-dlg.2027/

[@kousakunin2008]

Right, tails should be less than 10g. I'm also interested in Yoda. In my experience, If the wing is heavy, the performance will be adversely affected. The method of Yoda is a good solution. If you plan to put 4 servos, two of the four should be placed in the center of the wing.

[@bracesport]

@@kousakunin2008 my friend has flown the YODA and was impressed enough to order one - he even chopped one of his BAMF wings to poly - also works well (but too much centre dihedral). I am putting epoxy on my fuse tomorrow!

[@kousakunin2008]

That's interesting!

[@bracesport]

@@kousakunin2008 the epoxy is on the fuse forum.alofthobbies.com/index.php?threads/polyhedral-dlg.2027/page-2#post-22682

Bracesport, which 3d CAD software are you using?
