    I am struggling to comprehend that, The whole aircraft weighs half a gram less than a 1 Euro Cent Coin. Mind Boggling engineering, Uber Congratulations to the designers and builders of these majestic flying machines, they are so graceful in flight.

    I remember reading about these types of models in the 70's in the English Observer supplement. They flew them back then in aircraft hangers. The technology fascinated me then; and it still does.

    I love the power of synthesis of the video! A remarkable beautiful production.

    Am a free flight enthusiast. Such videos inspire me to get into making the F1D which is the ultimate in rubber powered free flight.

    This is a really nice video,. The videography is superb, combined with the to the point narative captures the essence of F1D. It covers the entire gambit, from the rules all the way to flying these models in competition, Not only does it highlight F1D, but it captures why it is so much fun by those who embrace F1D. Well done!

    Thanks for this nice video. I'am not up to the task to build such a fine craft yet. Doubt i ever will as i'am struggling to build a F1M at three gram. 😕😆

      I know, it's quite a challange. I found the guides from thef1dblog.wordpress.com/2016/09/09/f1d-how-to/ to be very helpful. Build a simple piano wire scales, weigh each part and keep a note of everything. That helps you calibrate your building process. I also found that great indoor balsa is helpful, I ordered from Nick Aikman in the UK. Best of the best.
      And - practice makes perfect; my first F1D was 1,75 g. The next one (seen in the end of this video, with the swept fin) was 1,52 g. Slowly getting there!
      However, If you'd like to build something simpler, that still flies well, try F1L! Google " INAV F1L" and you'll find an INAv issue filled with plans and building tips.

    My dad did microfilm before i was born ( i'm 67 ). I started FF, then C/L, R/C. I remember I demo'd a condensor paper rubber plane in one my of high school classes. Not sure where to get that light wood anymore. Very nice vid thx.

    Wonder if the sway of the tail by airframe flexion actually contributes to total thrust like fishtail

    Makes me angry and sad that young men now do not even build models! These to me are amongst the most beautiful things a person can build. They are ethereal. Yet, functional!

  • @gabeszgabeszgabesz

    beautiful.... where can i find instructions and projects to build one? what sort of materials are you using?

    • @lightflight_models

      The best would be to start off by something simpler, yet well flying. If you're fine using Google translate, there is a great model here: www.inomhusflyg.se/svensksexan/svensksexan.html (please translate from Swedish)
      This is a very good flyer in the A-6 class, where the main structure consists of 1/16" square cross section balsa. This makes building a lot easier. It can be covered using japan tissue, mylar film or simple protective plastic film used when painting at home.
      You need balsa wood, a few simple tools and balsa glue (I use UHU Hart, diluted 50% with acetone).

    How is it that the propeller turns so slow?

    • @lightflight_models
      @lightflight_models  4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      It's all a matter of low torque and a very large propeller. The torque is around 0.5-1 mNm for flying at a constant altitude.

    Pq a hélice gira tão lenta?

    • @davidbrohede
      @davidbrohede 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The propeller diameter is large, and the torque is low (around 0.5-3 mNm). This gives a very slow prop rpm.
