I Used to be in scratch building planes and kind of moved out of the hobby and moved into more minibikes, gokarts, etc and started my channed around it, this inspires me to get back into it, Awesome Plane!
@@MotorizedMayhem Thank your comment! I am glad to hear it. I have just started it a few month ago I like this type of buildings and flights very much.
@@bracesport If the control (V-tails) is precisely adjusted, the glider can be "rolled up" very nicely on a spiral route wirh a slightly higher elevation. The engine has good power and even with this battery (with a full charge), I think you can climb up to a height of 100 m up to 10 times. If I put a lighter battery with a smaller mAh, I would reach this height sooner, for sure. I am going to try the 1000 mAh batteries, there are two of them, and then I will be better off with two of them fully charged than with a bigger one.
0217 when (thin) wire pushrods are used, it may be Necessary to make use of pushrod GUIDES; in order to prevent excessive flexing of a pushrod during 'push'. 0225 main spar 'connectors' should be located at thirty percent of chord. 0627 it appears that the effective span of the v-tail is too small. the span of the stab should be equal to twenty-five percent of the wingspan. 1200 the main wing is short-on span-wise stiffness. said another way, the wing has VARIABLE dihedral.! 1419 the tail boom is short-on torque/twist resistance.
Beautiful build! I admire scratch builders, I think I saw the original video by Andrew Newton as well, might one day try to get into scratch building myself, but first I’m learning flying with some prefabricated models, I feel like I get to learn a lot just by noticing what makes them flying well and what makes a nice build.. This is also some advice the dollar tree foamboard DLG builder gave in one of his comments. Did you hot wire cut the foam profiles or sand them down manually?
@@MoritzWeller Thank you! Yes, it is a simple wing making method. I like it because I can stop when I want (but it is hard for me) and I can continue next time. In the next build I will try to make a wing with curved TE.

I wish you the best in learning and practising flying with DLG and other planes. I think that I found the best way for thermal flights in my local area and my flying place.

another winner!
@@bracesport Thank you Phil! I have to reinforcement and fix the wings to the fuselage stronger and I have to strenghten the fuselage sides.
@@goldenfish77 how is its climb performance?

..never mind, your newest video answered it 😄👌
