I always learn something watching. Love it.
Thanks mate! Glad you found it useful. 😊
I use a soldering iron and metal ruler to melt half way both sides wing and then I fold a sandpaper to smooth them and it works good
I'll have to try that, thanks.
These gliders are splendid for use as a basic airframe to experiment on!
You'll need three Lidl gliders to complete my "Scaled Composites White Knight Two & SpaceShipTwo Launch System" though! 😆
That'd be a fun project!
Indeed they are, and cheap too. Get started on the "Scaled Composites White Knight Two & SpaceShipTwo Launch System" and let's see the video 😉
I'll have to do one one day 🤔
I love this videos! Thanks very much for taking the time and effort.
I find cutting a slot in the wing leading edge (to take the Futaba cable/s) is good for small foamies.On larger models the semi-circular (sic) cross-sectioned leading edge, hollowed out, can take a surprising amount of cable,flaps,ailerons,retacts,lights!, all easily accessible as its easily removable with a scalpel!. Den, Wales.
Thanks mate, slot cutting no doubt a better option! 😉These little gliders are great for experimenting with!
Nive video, need to try something similar. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, and have a go. It's good fun!
Just a quick question did you have a problem where the brushed motors overheat because I Mande one and both motors overheated and melted the glue out of place
Wow, that's amazing! No I didn't have a problem with overheating. That must have been very hot. Was that with a 1s lipo and 55 mm propeller? I use 55mm props and about half of the motor is sticking out front in free air. I could imagine if the whole motor was in the foam it would get more hot?
I used a 1s lipo and 55mm props but I put the motors far inside the the wing so it got no air and the foam insulated the motors
great vid! Question: Did you connect the motors to the ESC in parallel or series?
Hi Nizar, In parallel. I'm not sure if they would work in series, each motor would only get 50% of the voltage supplied?
@@bobflyman that’s a fast reply! yeah i realized that a min after i commented lol. By the way, i’m watching its maiden flight as we speak haha. Epic content, PLZ don’t stop🙏🏼
The full maiden video is here th-cam.com/video/PavkXBtSF30/w-d-xo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
to run the cables why no just cutting with a knife
It would have been easier. I wanted to hide the wires inside the wing.
That looks very delicate work. 👍
