Wow! A vector type motor set up on two servos. I've been trying to do something like this for a while now and here it is all figured out, THANKS ! - I'm gonna make one for a kite....
It don't matter to me if it will fly or not I see some creativity there and you have to give him credit on that. What it really boils down to Its kinda neat to see a complete RC PRO Just having some fun with spare parts.
of course it wont fly :D none of the core issues needed to fly have been adressed! things to think about when making a plane... Wing Loading! motor thrust! weight! amp draw from prop and motor combo! aerofoil design! amongst other things. now to make a plane properly do the following Dave, make fusalarge, add ALL electrics to get flying wieght, add 20% to total wieght to work out size of wing, then match a motor to prop for low ampage that give at least HALF of total weight...
in thrust (may need much more depending on plane) decide aerofoil design to match plane or flight style you want, balance plane to roughly 25 to 35% of wing chord, and you should have a plane that will technically fly well once trimmed :D give it a try mate ;) btw 5* for effort :D
no it will not fly as you can see it would need a nose dip also about 3 wheels two at the back and one at the front and also you might need 2 motors at the back to keeps its gravity intact and also the friction would help with the wheels so it would give it a bit more balance depending on where your going to make it take place.
It will fly, it looks like it will and my experience of building scratch built home design hand launch models is - "if it looks like it will fly, it probably will"
wow.. i was thinking of remaking the body of my mini storm launcher... cause i fly planes with 4 channles or more... and its my only 2 channle plane... and the body just isn't good... kid's stuff lol
and now i saw this... but i am probably just ganna use the stalk power system though... i can't wait to find out if yours fly lol
Dave, I sent you a personal message several days ago. No hurry just want to know if its working or do I have to send another way. It will fly, I know you better than that?
I thaink that is a very creative idea. My experience with the mini storm launcher (even with 2 motors) was that it was underpowered. I think you're going to need a bigger engine.
im not sure at all you just never no these days......but hey what the hell its a gr8 idea and i hope it does.....gr8 stuff looking forward to results...
Looks like the answer was no, and Dave is a little too proud to post it. My guess is we will only see the video if and when he manages to get the thing to fly.
It will be tricky to control I tihnk, but if the motor and prop is big enough it should theoretically work. U might have to play with the CG to get that worked out. I have found that with the weird stuff i have put together u can get pretty far off with that and it will seem unflyable till you get it right.
I guess the motor is just too small for that much weight, the wing area and drag add quite a bit too, so my guess is it wont fly, or if it will, then definitely not far.
Technically a rock can fly, if you strap a big enough motor on it. The "infinitely variable pitch" looks like a real good idea, could make the plane squirrelly when you turn it though, that could take some getting used to. I think the biggest issue is power to weight, that is a small motor. The more I look at it the more I think it should fly. I know you know your physics so despite my minor doubts I will be more surprised if you can't fly it.
Make sure you have alot of up elevator cause with the motor sitting that high and in front of the cg it will probably push the nose down under power, of course it will fly if it's light enough and powerful enough, remember the old F104 starfighter basically an engine with a pilot seat strapped to the front.
Cool idea Dave. I bought the same glider last year and started working on something similar, but never finished it. Good to see someone else is thinking on the same level.
Ive played with the same idea of using 2 servos for tilt and pitch of the motor instead of control surfaces but I dont think you have enough power with that motor...well find out though
I'd suggest less throws, if you can make that radio do it. Don't think it has travel adjust though. Looks like the vectoring would be too much, but give it a try anyways, for kicks
I'm reasonably sure the answer is no. I think it is balanced properly, but the motor is too small for the weight of the plane. I think the setup will give the plane the potential to glide for further distances, but not create any type of forward thrust that is controllable.
I think it may fly, but very unstable with that thrust vectoring system. I think some hinge tape and some foam elevators/rudder would work a bit more efficient. But hell, I cant wait to see part 2! I hope it does fly.
MOST recievers will not operate on a single cell lipo, they will shut down, I am sure you know this, but just to mention it in case you had maybe overlooked this point.
the reciever will operate fine for a short period of time, but as the voltage drops, it will shut down
i think its massivly over weight for that mini storm launcher motor. it showed a hint.. the plane didnt even act like it wanted to move when he went full throttle. so no, i dont think it will fly
I think it will fly for you,but if I tried to fly it,no.From what I've seen of YOUR flying skills,I think you could probably fly a brick if it had a big enough motor on it...lol
Great idea Dave. I think it will work because if you think about it, really, all it is is a thrust vectoring system mounted on the forward section of the aircraft. It's a risky attempt, but a great model for a concept aircraft. It's definitely gonna fly. The only question one might ask is Is it powerful enough? Best of luck. 5/5
Hmmmm......I wonder........I guess I'll be the first to know since I'm your cameraman, but I ain't givin' away any hints. LOL. We'll all just have to see.
Awesome project! I say it will fly, but the controls will not work well. Just my honest opinion, looking forward to part two and I hope it works of course! Experiments like this are always great fun to build and try, "thinking outside of the box ." Again, great job.
DUDE THATS THE SAME GLIDER I WAS ASKING ABOUT THE CG ON NICE!!! ohh i bought a new heli well its used but new to me a centry hummingbird fp needs a tail rotor was a steal for 35 dollars and 2 batterys
weak motor lol interesting idea, it seems the motor is going in the right direction all though pitch seems iffy since for "up" thrust the thrust is pointing downwards to the fuse... therefor there is no upwards lifting because the downwards thrust is deflected away not down...
NO!... will it blend !
