Quark 2M - Back to cutting innocent trees!
Fred:
Ok, cool thanks John.
I was not too sure about the positioning of the hook! Always follow your first idea! :!:
Might be good to add one in front, but also keep the other one :?:
JohnPearson:
Hi fred
O.K. the Quark 2m is ready to fly. I used the Cof G you suggested and it balanced with a battery and 12oz/340g of lead.
Here is a photo of the changes I made to the wing joining system.
If you changed the last rid on the wing, and put the cable hole at the back i.e. ( the reverse of the present design), then we could add the hook in front of the front wing spar, which would hold the wings together better. I could not do this, due to the fact that I had already added the hook brocks and covered the wings, the rod added to the front, was a quick fix solution.
When I talk to you next Fred I will explain it better, hopefully soon!
The AUW ready to fly is 3.8lbs/1.7kgs
Fred:
Thanks a mil for that John.
I'll modify my plan to my first idea tomorrow. I'll put a screenshot here.
1.7Kg, not bad at all, that should do it fine! :D You might even remove a bit more lead from the nose after the first flight.
Can't wait for the first flight too now!! :D
Richard Boyd:
JP and his Quark is all ready to fly, YIPPEE we are off to the mountain today. That is of course if the low cloud lifts and the winds start to blow :!:
Fred:
Can't wait!
Report, photos, videos as soon as you come back home! :D
Mine almost finished, just can't wait!
