This is my first attempt at making the winglets I've used 2 pieces of 1/8 balsa with a piece of 1/16 ply in the middle for strength
I've the winglet leaning out by 10° but will check the angle when the wing is on the fuselage

Aerotow / New glider tug
« on: March 20, 2018, 14:16:54 PM »
After losing my big pawnee to stupidity and needing a new tug for this year I opted for the Wot 4 Xtreme
It has its first flight this morning and all is good
It has a DLE 55cc engine, Hi-tec servo's, powerbox Gemini 2, 2 x 7.4v 2cell 3000mah lipos and Graupner radio gear
Our first aerotow meeting is the last Sunday in April at the Causeway Coast club

Yea Fred
With me making it a two piece wing and tailplane it has added some serious weight
The first one I built came in at 20lb this one is coming in at between 25lb to 30lb If I was to finish it i would put an 80cc or more into it

Fred would a 55cc engine be too small for the 3m Rodule
After a very stupid senior moment I'm in the market for a tow plane to suit a 55cc engine
Whats the all up weight of the rodule
I have a Titan 2 built but it's gonna weigh in at near 25lb to heavy :-(

This Sunday we're going ahead with the aerotow day
Because of the restriction Nimsa is going to run a round of e-soaring which will start at 11am
We then intend to tow the rest of the afternoon, if all goes well we could have up 7 pilots flying
Fingers crossed for the weather

I'm gutted about the restriction
If there was a club near Belfast you would be restricted height wise because of the airport
This was a spur of the moment event and we'll see how things go but will look into in more detail for next year
