SG 38 Zogling - Primary Glider

Nice film. I like it's in HD. Maybe a lot more power is needed because the pilot is moving too? Taco. -

Posted by Stuart Eggerton on 15/01/2012 09:05:35: Hi Taco, do you know where the CG point is on the SG38 wing, I can't find it mentioned on the plans? From the original i can say this: CG can be measured from the leading edge of the wing, and should Iie between 400 and 480mm with the pilot in the seat. I think this will help? Taco -

Yes, laminating is much better. Can you use clevis for your wires? It's not fully scale, but it is easy in use. I am using this for struts: Weld this part together with a rod. Other end of the rod has thread. The other end (with thread) will fit into the next part (strut-mount) Not shown here. But in the top section i have to drill a hole and tap thread, so the rod can be adjusted in almost any length before glueing together. If needed i will show you tomorrow. Taco.
