Question does the distance matter? As in how far away the wing core is from the "point/pivot" that the line is attached to on the other side.

[dadde87]

@GreenAce92 Yes it does matter. The length from the pivot point decides the shape and size of the tip chord.

Cheers,

David

hi, whats the wire (nichrome?), wire gauage, foam type, amps, volts.?

great job!

[dadde87]

Hi! The wire is "Nicrothal 80", 0.3 mm thick. The foam is bluecore/fanfold. For this type of foam 2.5A though the wire gives a good cutting speed. The voltage will vary depending on the wire length.

Good luck!

Hej

Vad får du materialet du skär ifrån?

Var får du tråden du skär med ifrån?

Glömde skriva att tråden är Nicrothal 80 och finns att köpa lite överallt. Lycka till

@fortsw5050 Check airfoil database. John Yost has some interesting airfoils.

This is the simplest and smartest foam cutter for wings, ever.

Great work, David

Could you put up a video of how you build the foam cutter (materials, asembly, etc) and also how you made the mold and what material you use for the mold?? very smart by the way! great wings!!

[nitronano1]
