Kas te kusagilt internetist leidsite kaasehitajad, kes on kogemusi jaganud? Kas pole tekkind mõtet rakendada lohe jalgratta ette? Arvan, et tõmbaks üles küll.
Nice! I am thinking about trying to make a homemade one to fly into the water...Does anyone have suggestions on how to do this without it being too expensive? I'm just a kid. :D
ya nodought well ya know if ya stick to calm days so you dont getunexpeted lift,stay on small training hill and be happy with foot dragger flights youll have fun BUTdont go any higher then you want to fall from,it looks like you already have a lot of speed.
you could buy an old proven glider like that for 200 bucks to play with....if you get serious please get some lessons.
We got plenty of out-of-control action of of the glider. Mostly it was impossible to turn when it started veering to the side and responsiveness was low all-round...
very nice! back in the '80s i used to have a bamboo and canvas homebrew glider like that one. (some douchebag stole it, however) i want to get another one.
please I made a steam engine and now I want to make a glider like this i would apreciate if u msg. me some dimensions and materials or a plan of some sort.
If you ever find the plans for these please let me know. I have been searching for the same thing with no avail :-(. Ill let you know if I come across it.
Yeah, I know the feeling. I had Whitney Wing plans that look exactly like this, along with Batso and the Seagull plans. Where they ended up over the years is beyond me, LOL!
However, as an alternative, A Wills Wing Falcon, on the used market might be very affordable, parts should be available, and the performance based on Glide Ratio is easily 50% better (6:1 or so vrs. 4:1).
Ironically enough, the SNA Airport in Orange County they have a Bamboo Bomber and A Falcon hanging from the ceiling!
Very cool. You guys built a dang good plastic glider there, very cool.

a home made glider that works. bravo.
CraigRidley1 1 year ago
...yep, any fluttering/flapping means that
many smallish sections of the wing are
stalling, meaning that they are not flying,
adding harmful drag, and cannot be
controlled. Stay very low, stay slow, stay
safe! Best to obtain a certified, tested
glider that has safety features and designs that the homemade models
lack.

battens run from the leading edge to trailing edge as anti flutter protection...did ya hear that flutter,thats the sound of ipending death.
next comes uncontrolable dive and osilation.
lufflines are anti dive device from king post to rear of battons.
just spent a little more and buy a glider that wount kill ya ok .PLEASE.

This looks like a classic 90 degree rogallo. I had several plans for these back in the 70's... now long lost...
Is the plan for this available somewhere?
