I've been hooked on aerodynamics since I was college. We only built gliders and experimental with ideas. I'm 69 now. You might look into the FFM family of wings. I had one wing I kept for decades, they said back then you can't glide that far on short so a span. I found out years later what I'd really built. I had just kept it because it flue so well and far. Great job. We built ours on tissue and wing dope.

@teodorvangelov 4 роки тому
You should use 6-7mm thick depron, instead of this foam, also your fuselage is very wide and i think its really heavy for this 1000kv motor with all these additional electronics and reinforcements. I think you should first try to take off and land without landing gear, it's much easier.

For a first experience, it's actually good, I would recommend using some dihedral on the wing, about 3° and using lower rates on your radio, and for building materials, use foam board, styrofoam breaks very easily unless you use a very high density one. Good project. Cheers!

The same thing has happened to me when I first build my RC plane that is CRASH. I was so disappointed with it because I build it so passionately as you did. After a lot of hard crashes and rebuild still, I was unable to fly properly. I came to know that Flying is also as important as building it...Then I improved my flying skills on Realfight RC simulator on my PC and after a little a bit of practice I did it...It as flying perfectly. I also recommend everyone to practice on an RC simulator before having your first flight... And as always this tutorial was also great...

You should run an algorithm in the Arduino to counteract the reaction from the motor. With trims on zero you will see that the plane will have the tendency to rotate in the opposite direction the motor is spinning.

@learningtocrash4030 4 роки тому
Wow, I can't believe you got it airborne and back in one piece, great work.👍 Hitting the curb sucked though. I believe there are different modules that you could integrate too, like: GPS, gyros (3 & 6 axis) for attitude, barometric pressure for altitude, sonic or infrared sensors (for curbs lol), an FPV could probably be connected too. You could also do mixes like adding some rudder when you bank. Again great work and thanks for posting.

@NikolayAgopyan 3 роки тому
Very nice for a first attempt! Its a success. It will help if you taper the tail of the airplane to make it lighter. Make it thin at the end, that will also reduce drag and will make it fly better. Keep it up!

@PunakiviAddikti 3 роки тому
This is a really good tutorial for making a cheap but effective plane. This form is almost always used in starter planes fit for new pilots. It looks great and seems to fly very well. The styrofoam seems to be very brittle though, I'd probably use a more flexible foam. For construction I wouldn't use hot glue due to the fact that once it cools, it's permanent and you don't have a lot of time to get everything aligned and then press firmly. It also easily melts styrofoam. I'd recommend using model glue. You'll recognize it in the store by the fact that it comes with a spray bottle of accelerant. Just drip a generous amount (enough to cover the area but not too much so it squeezes out and drips) and take your time aligning the parts. Once you're done, push everything together and spray the seam with accelerant. Don't worry about getting it on the inside, the glue will dry on its own. The accelerant is used to speed it up initially, but it is not required. This gives you a lot more time to make sure everything is perfectly aligned. Note: this type of glue doesn't always stick to tape! Make sure you test if it does.

@fouzaialaa7962 4 роки тому
I think the plane going to the right is due to the rudder having more surface area in the right side so more contact area (due to the groove and being glued on the left side) gluing the rudder smack in the middle should solve it or trimming with potentiometer like you did

@Ultramesh 3 роки тому
Great video. It's pretty amazing what you have done. From my experience in RC, you need to build light or if not, build bigger. I have a wonderful Ikarus Shock Flyer Super Star that is made of thin Depron and has a wingspan of 800 mm, a length of 750 mm and a flying weight of about 200 g. So the servos are very small and the receiver is tiny. The plane flies really well. Sure, I've crashed it too and it is taped together like yours. Easier to hand launch and then land on its belly in grass. If I was to build a plane that had the size of receiver you have, I'd build it similar to the Multiplex Parkmaster with a wingspan of 975 mm and a higher wing loading. Try make it from Elapor if you can get it, or Depron. You can then end up with a flight weight of around 520 g. Use carbon rods to reinforce.

I have tip for you, on foam, put some stick glue, and then add paper. I did so for plane then even 3mm foam + colored paper from both sides, create very strong structure. And it's super easy to do. Btw, multiple rounds of paper, and glue is super strong, and light material, widely used for pirotechnics.
