A glider of any sort should spend much of its time gliding. The fact that a Boeing 747 had all of its engines shut down in flight for a while doesn't make 747s powered gliders. Apart from the landing, did your airplane glide at all?
...but the shape is definetly resembling the one of a glider. I bet a 747 not flying with any of its engines at all you wouldn't call a glider aswell, would you?! By the way very cool plane! @philipsmith1990
Hi Guys, I know my english is very bad. I was very nervous and did my best. I also do not have time to study English because I have to build model airplanes 😂. I hope you still found interest in the video and can follow me to some extent what I'm trying to explain Greetings Daniel Hör
Hey Daniel - You English is far better than my German...which is actually non-existent! You did a great job in sharing the information about your glider. At that moment I did not really understand about the ESCs connected to the actuators on the elevator and rudder. Just fantastic. Thanks again. Dom (Essential RC)
Everything from the 3D printing to that little pop up motor to the linear actuators used on the control surfaces and the 10 gram weight. That was just amazing design and build.

Thank you so much for sharing your skills, I'm 51 years old and I am like a kid watching videos like this. I wish I had your skills of building flying model planes. Simply amazing. Don't stop building, don't stop dreaming. Thank you so much.

Even if he made $20 profit on 1000 planes, he would need to sell several new models per year to hit regular wage in the US (maybe if he sold 3k per year, and then at $20 profit per plane he’d break even with a normal decent job, not high paying but decent). I feel like the first thousand in a batch would cost a lot of money... Probably very labor intensive and manual at this stage. Maybe he has the funds for full scale mass production and full autonomous factory, but even then it would be many years to recoup that, but that’s probably the only way to make it worth it. I could see selling the designs and 3d prints as a side hobby for a few thousand dollars, but that means it should take up no more than a couple weeks at most of effort (with my experience of 3d printing, it rarely goes to plan, some don’t come out right, and a good printer like that model probably requires is very expensive, plus you still have upkeep and maintenance just like a CNC machine, speaking of which my FDM needs it’s worn out nozzle replaced, and thankfully has a fresh set of linear bearings but the linear shafts need to be rotated for wear reasons because I don’t want to replace them just yet, and the extruder housing has worn a bit and the compression fittings on my Bowden tubes are just about shot... Yep, my car has less maintenance, and it’s the notorious rotary engine RX-8!) I’d just sell the CAD files for DIY hobbiests and maybe a high premium for a kit. Full production seems like it won’t compete in today’s market where everyone will look at this like it’s a $10 toy or compare it to an $8 capacitor powered plane and the cost of $5 in servos/actuators and expect it for $20 total (instead of $20 profit on whatever it costs). But a few dozen might buy a $100 kit, that’s just not much money though...
Amazing. I've seen the ETA flying and have flown many times as P2 in Binder EB28 gliders...believe me , the wings do flex exactly like the model. Well done, great job.
I too have flown with Walter Binder, in South Africa, two flights of over 850 Km. The wings are so flexible that you have to be very gentle on the controls or else they get into interesting shapes!! Stalky
For some reason I was expecting it to be a lot slower - I know speed doesn't scale with the size of the airframe, of course, but since it looks so remarkably scale at such a small size, the speed takes you by surprise.
Metaldirtnskin FPV Would need a larger wing chord, more lift and drag... but yeah i expected it to be slower, but it looks reasonably heavy as well so that definitley impacts the glide ratio
Wing is to scale which gives a high wing loading. Wing loading determines the speed range that a glider flies at. The glide ratio is not scale because of the very low Reynolds number-wing chord.
Daniel - a mate of Anton Bennings here from South Africa, I am a mega fan of your work, I have similar concepts in mind but lack your rate of production. I am busy with an A330 and a JS1 Revelation glider for micro scale and was inspired to see your work of art. Don’t ever stop
Thanks for a great vid ! Your English is better than many people that live in the US these days Sir. Amazing skill and maneuverability demonstration. Keep up the great work !
You are wrong ;) IRL or even in R/C the motor is used to climb to height then is shut off. In R/C outdoor types you then go chase a thermal or ridge lift and keep going without the motor.
@@joejoejoejoejoejoe4391 I have slightly larger gliders that will handle outdoor use. Generally 2-8 knots of wind looking at the speed it should do 'ok' in similar conditions without the motor. Low Reynolds numbers on the really narrow chord won't help either.
@@AZCaveMan480 He did for a few seconds. Look at the roof height and have some understanding of the Aerodynamics of this sort of glider and the space he was working in a decent job of flying it best case unpowered time in the air might be 5-6 seconds in that space as you are always turning which kills the glide.
With some airflow, even just a fan on the ground pointed slightly upward, this could fly inside a large room indefinitely, doing loops. Really impressive.
I dont understand why 1.5k people decided that this video deserves a thumbs down. Not just going to a different video all together but they were that offended that they needed to leave a negative review. The internet exposes all the miserable people. Leave a thumbs up on this comment to make me feel accomplished not in life but on TH-cam. My family deserves it 😆
That’s quite impressive. Could it be used outside being that light or would it just get swept away? I’ve had other small models that weren’t great outdoors but maybe the glider form factor is different?
Full size powered gliders are a thing. They don't fly around with the motor running. It's for self launching. Go flying without needing a Tow plane or winch. Once they reach typical release height the motor is turned off and commonly retracts into the fuselage.
powered gliders are actually a thing, they use the motor to get up to glide height then kill the engine and have a great forward distance to loss of altitude coefficient. so no, they are different.
Awesome glider! I love the way he setup the motor pivot. I thought for a minute that the wings were going to fold up on it but it just kept on flying ;-) Well done! See you in the Air!

hi
How could anyone get upset LOLOLOL 💙💙
We're not *upset*, we're just doubtful about the term. A "powered" glider is rather like "canned" fresh fruit or a "pedaled" automobile.

Hi thanks for this insight on gliders. Kindly email me at nyanyoventures@gmail.com let talk.
Thank you! :)
Your English is just fine (Viel besser als mein Deutsch!) - and that glider is absolutely amazing!
We know...
Daniel Hor. You are next level. This was incredible. Thanks for not studying English but rather construct "micro" gliders. Love from Africa
Everything from the 3D printing to that little pop up motor to the linear actuators used on the control surfaces and the 10 gram weight. That was just amazing design and build.
imagine if you showed this to the wright brothers
In that alternate reality, we would all have personal flying cars by now. ;-)
They would have killed you for being a witch.

They would hair Hoer as a God.
Id imagine they wouldn’t be impressed
Crank up the heated floor to add thermals.
Lol
That wouldn’t... not work
For that thing, a zippo would do.
I was thinking 2-3 space heaters in the middle of the floor pointed up might create a column of lift.
How about just placing an electric fan on the floor pointing straight up ? This will get you your updraft.

Absolutely beautiful ! It flies a little faster than I was expecting.
It's really fast, I'm surprised 😃
no
Yeah, and doesn't have anywhere near the 70:1 glide ratio of the 30m wingspan real thing. Not sure it's even 10:1. Scale is hard.

You know, you should get a big reflector heater and set up a thermal in that room, then you can do proper glider-ing.
If this young man manufacturers and markets this model he will sell thousands and thousands
Even if he made $20 profit on 1000 planes, he would need to sell several new models per year to hit regular wage in the US (maybe if he sold 3k per year, and then at $20 profit per plane he’d break even with a normal decent job, not high paying but decent).

And shortly after, cheap Chinese version will pop up and bye2
Unlikely : you can't fly this outside, and to fly it inside you need this kind of huge hangar.
ya, but I bet Chinese small models already have actuators, example rc micro cars... awesome stuff anyway
He could just sell the files to print that thing. Not that much potential profit but zero investment or risk.
Thanks!

Wing is to scale which gives a high wing loading. Wing loading determines the speed range that a glider flies at. The glide ratio is not scale because of the very low Reynolds number-wing chord.
I kinda _expected_ it to be fast, seems like such a small chord would need speed to get lift.

@@woc144kreborn2 lol, you sound like a human...

You are wrong ;) IRL or even in R/C the motor is used to climb to height then is shut off. In R/C outdoor types you then go chase a thermal or ridge lift and keep going without the motor.

Watching people fly RC stuff has a special satisfaction
Amazing thrust coming from this little motor, can even take off from zero!
I noticed the same. by the sounds it makes must have a crazy amount of rpm
Glider at 10 gms is light enough...
The motors are normally used in micro quads.
The wing flex makes it so real
🔵 It IS real!!!....did you think it was a CGI?
Niesamowite! Świetna robota! Pięknie latający szybowiec.

when do we get to some action? 3:50
ببييب
Very cool! Much faster than I imagined.
With some airflow, even just a fan on the ground pointed slightly upward, this could fly inside a large room indefinitely, doing loops. Really impressive.
hey Daniel ,glider you built is really amazing
3:50 flight start
Mark serjant thank u
4:34 that is a great idea to have an updraft source. They could have a fake mountain, with a fan blowing upwards or something.
just position enough "old farts" in one corner...☁️📉🤢📈☁️
Amazing how light and thin the wings are. Look at the flex even with only 10g weight.
Good plane
Very cool! I love how graceful these microlight flyers are indoors.
Great Video!

Those side walls at end of each wing is for what maintaining lift , what physics air trapped above wing pulls the craft up ?

What if you set up space heaters to provide updraft?
add some stiffness to the center of the wings, up to half length each side for some better gliding and turning experience
Was thinking the same, the wings are not rigid enough. Other than that, good model.
Absolutely wonderful!
