It actualy flyes!! fantastic!
-
Now that is sooooo damn cool ... ^_^;
-
incredible!
-
@gaetanboiv It was not a kit. I build my own with bue styrofoam sm. It has no rudders. It could have been useful in high alpha. In the wind, it could fly backward. I had video. I will try to find it.
Yours is great.

+I am impressed at the stability of the project, the wind must be very constant where you are and those would be great for commercial products!
-
Holy crap, it flies?
-
That looks fun!

Scotty, you're a freakn genius!

Part 1 of 2 : Homade made RC glider from Blade CX2 Gutsby djrevolution9913,184 views
Fifteen years ago, I made one with a YS 45, and needed lead, alot of lead to have a decent,cg. It flew great, but better upside down, because of the drag of the lower part. Your's do not seem to have this problem. Nice flying. The airfoil is known or approximaive. Mine was very approximative.

@gaetanboiv did you build the one with built-up balsa?
this flies with very little lead. adding lead to the nose does not affect the pitch stability very much because of the flat airfoil i think. and the tail has little or no angle relative to the wing, just some shaping to the edges to give a bit of downforce. and yes flies inverted very well too. this one has a very flat airfoil, with just some shaping to the leading edge to part the air a bit lower, and trailing edge to give some reflex.

For the life of me I don't see any control surfaces moving, so ... what is the deal? Needless to say I would love to build one also, but I am sure the C/G point is a bit tricky. So, are there plans for this anywhere?

@Tsavah there are ailerons at rear of dish, and elevator at rear of tail, maybe you can see it in the photo at the start of the video. i used drawings available online at ex-astris-scientia and widened the dish and made the tail smaller. CG didn't seem much of any issue. have fun and try using some foam steak trays or depron or poster board and build some small free flight models to find CG. just print out some images and trace to the foam. good luk!

the saucer section is a little big.

@Hedgehogstudioss good eye... i changed some of the proportions to make it fly better.
