Hello,
I'm going to use two 70mm EDFs, 3000kV motors and two packs 4 cell 4000mA. I did not have a traction test yet.

Hello,
I temporarily interrupted work at F15 being hijacked by another project started during the winter holidays: Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero .....

I am still not clear how you make the sections? Do you print on the Depron directly or print on the paper and then glue it to the Depron?


Also, how do you connect the fuselage sections together? Do you use glue tabs?


Does anyone else know this technique?

Thanks

Isaac

Hello, for the fitting of the fuselage sections I use a 6mm thick depron. On the depron material the epoxy joints are more resistant than the material. The resistance beams of the wing are made of 1mm plywood glued on 6mm foam or even 4mm balsa. The paper sheets are preprinted, stick on the depron and then bend, the paper reinforce all this structure

I think I am beginning to understand the fuselage joining method. It appears there is a thick fuselage frame in between the skin sections and both are then epoxied to that frame.

I assume that the paper is sprayed with clear coat to prevent it from getting wet.
