Quark 2M - Back to cutting innocent trees!
jonboshoff:
Hi All,
Here are a couple of pics of my Quark which I finally finished today. Foam core wings and stab and a live hinge for the ailerons. It was my first crack at cutting my own wings, vac bagging them etc and it was an enjoyable learning experience. Hoping to maiden in the next week or so weather and winds permitting. The info on the forum was very helpful, thanks to all for providing it!

Very nice!

Successful maiden flight this afternoon from Ivinghoe Beacon! She flew straight and true with no initial trimming required. Rolls really nicely and inverted needed just a hint of down. A beautiful glider and I am looking forward to exploring her flight envelope. Thanks Fred for designing such a good build project that flies perfectly!
Fred:
OOhhhh, very nice Quark John!! :-*
And glad the first flight went well! That always stress me out, and I hope you'll enjoy many hours of flying with your Quark!
And you are more than welcome, but ultimately, you did all the building work, so you deserve the congrats! :-[

Flew my Quark, first time in a while and she is fun to fly.
What settings are best for this model is it worth having snap flap, so ailerons go slightly down when pulling up and go slightly up when pushing down?
