Well done Kenney, looks just great, I am sure it will fly well,

Alan, follow the plan and you will get it right, do not do what I did, put them on to the wrong end of the wing, had to cut off and make two more, oooh what a silly billy I was.

All the best Mike.

Hi Alan, I have found the best way to use the servo's to the control services, are using golden rod controls, these are flexible so you have to put cross pieces along the fuss, but they are complete with the clevises and all fittings,

There are two sizes blue which are for more demanding controls, then there are red ones which are thinner I have found these to be quite strong enough for glider flying, I hope this is helpful for you to decide, there is no need for z bends as you can connect at both ends with no problems, also it is far easier to adjust the length,

Mike.

Hi Ton, thank you for noticing, my mistake so I will cut them off and change them, will not know if it would have made any difference to the flying, as I will not try it. Once again thank you. The weather here is awful no chance of a maiden for quite some time.

Michael.

[Red Eagle]

This is the last time of trying.

[Red Eagle]

Hi Pete, yes I have new ones to add but I can not seem to be able to, they are in my documents but I can't send them. Mike.

[Red Eagle]

Hi, still trying to send pics.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

Hi All, I have tried to send some photo's of my glider but do not seem to be able to.

Will keep trying.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

Colour to be decided, Probably Red wings, White Fuse, with a touch of blue, Solar Film.

All the best to every one as I may not be on for quite awhile.

Mike.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

No prop for safety, All three from Mike, .

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

all ready for cover,

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

Hi nearly finished.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

Hi KC, thanks for the comment but the gap is bigger than it looks in the photo, if the movement on the controls is all right then I will chop off the last two holes giving more clearance,

Mike.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

WOW I did some thing right.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

If it has worked the first one is Servos. next ready to cover but a bit more sanding. Third battery box but no Velcro.

will try to get some more later when nearly finished.

Mike.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

Still trying to up load photos but it does not seem to work for me

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

Wow thanks WolstonFlyer, I will have a look later to see if I can do it, I can send photos by email but this is a bit different ,

thanks again Mike. .

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

Hi tried to place some pics of my build, but do not seem to be able to, not that far advanced,

Will try again later, but do not know how to put them into album,

all the best Mike.

Hi Glyn, no need for a heat gun save some money, just up the heat on your iron and pass it over the covering

with out touching it, keep an eye on it & you will see it shrink, why not do a test, build a square of balsa or a plastic box cover it

then pass the iron over it to see if it shrinks, if you burn a hole in it, take it off & try again, do this until you get it right

saves making a mess of the wings or fuse, hope this will help you.

all the best Mike.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

all most forgot not using the two (2) dowels in the front of the wings or the two (2) lock down bolts at the trailing edge, going for the old method of rubber bands, tried & tested.

Mike.

[E-Glider new design called RedEagle]

How is every one getting on with the build? I have built the wings & tail feathers, now on the fuse. the wings gave me a bit of a problem as all the ribs were not of the same length so had to cut a couple of new ones, the fuse isn't to difficult, so long as it is kept square & level, I have altered the front end as I am using a brushless motor which is placed on a fire wall a lot farther back, still using the same circular nose cone, may have to alter the battery position to find the C of G. will try to upload some photos when finished. that's all for now as I have to go & do some snow shovelling.

All the best Mike.
