  • @SebastienChedalBornu
    @SebastienChedalBornu Před 2 měsíci +2

    It's funny how you configured it like a plane. Usually motors are option on gliders so we put motors on a two or three position switch because you generally want to climb not to have little throttle. and the throttle is used for airbrakes/crowbars this way we have full control of the speed. But really nice réalisation thanks for sharing and for the build/tips

    • @coriscotupi
      @coriscotupi Před 2 měsíci +1

      It's a matter of personal preference. I like to have the motor on the throttle channel, and airbrakes on two or three position switches. But I get it that not everyone enjoys this configuration.

    Your skills are truly impressive. I am also planning to build a glider using carbon fiber. I used the 3K carbon fiber I have for a stiffness test. Like in your video, I made a single layer, but it was not strong and bent very easily. How strong and flexible are your wings? If I had made it, the wings would have broken during flight. There is no place to learn carbon fiber work where I live. Do you plan to make a detailed video on carbon fiber work?

    • @markoroolaid
      @markoroolaid  Před měsícem

      Hello
      I myself try and experiment. In terms of power, the Black Mamba is certainly not a Hotliner, but still a thermal glider, which means that maneuvers must be done with feeling and not overload the plane.
      Since I see that there is a lot of interest in the carbon of airplanes, I will definitely make more detailed composite videos in the future

    Beautiful work! Been out of the hobby for many many years but I was doing this same construction method, minus all the CNC stuff, 30 years ago. Never could get the finish on my wings to look as pretty right out of the bag though.
    I found over time I had problems with the carbon fiber delaminating from the foam after several years in storage. Is this a known issue and what is done now to keep that from happening?
