Files will be available soon. I'm printing one more version and once I feel comfortable ill put them on my Cults page

You could try to use a clear plastic rudder so it doesn't show up so well when the jet is in flight.
great job and cool to see the process.......thumbs up👍👍
Nice job
Gyro on elevons won't help yaw stability. You still need to control yaw with something.
Love the colour co-ordinated crash bag :)
💯
Twist the wings so that the wingtips have a negative lift. This way you don’t need a horizontal stabilator. This is a fairly new discovery at NASA. This causes the higher wingtip to accelerate when turning so that the turn is coordinated although there is no rudder. I can’t find the literature on it now. But there are also couple of videos where they explained that it was a student who followed the math and built a rc plane accordingly. The development team thought they had done an error in their simulations, but it wasn’t an error. If I remember correctly about 20% in from the wing tip you should have neutral lift. Outward from that it should be negative. With a twisted wing like that, you will need a slightly longer wingspan to generate same amount of lift as a traditional wing. The benefit is in less drag and no need for a horizontal stabiliser.
Also there will be no wing tip vortex, the vortex is moved inwards. When you se birds fly in a V formation you notice that the wingtips are overlapping in the formation. This is with the same amount as to where the vortex if formed.
looks cool . try a ww2 shinden canard edf that seems to be a problem plane
You make better planes than horizon 😄
That was pretty cool!! I'm surprised you got it airborne without a flight controller. And it flew progressively better as you adjusted the CG! As you probably know, that plane was designed with fly-by-wire (computer control) in mind. It was inherently unstable and required constant input from the computer to control it. It also was a unmanned drone and never made it to production. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonnell_Douglas_X-36
How do you make it so detailed?! Your work is amazing I've been trying so hard on my project and can't get even close to u. I guess it takes time. Fantastic plane!!!✈️
Takes lots of trial and error! Keep at it
Would you look at doing a 'FanJet 600' model for 50mm EDF? Id bet you could do a great one.
Wow I’ve never seen this! Definitely going to look into it
Low rates first ,trim, balance, then try stunts, crash was a forgone truth!😮
Split flaps will help with tailess design or use a tail of a kite for drag.
Nice video! I can't believe that first nose dive crash didn't destroy the plane!!!
Shows the toughness of LW printed pla
Who makes the funky orange PLA?
Yes, it was tail heavy and needed the CG adjusted. That being said, I noticed when you looked at it from the side view, the canards appear to be giving the plane a nose up attitude, even with the 2200. If that's the case, you may not need such a large battery if you adjust them to level. Just throwing stuff out there.... AirHammer out!!
After designing 4-5 canard airframes I found that a static front canard needs 4-8 degrees I’d positive attitude to have level flying characteristics. If you go back to my early Viggen design you’ll see I’ve spent a while figuring out the canards 👍🏻
@@hotlapkyle are you saying 4-5 different airframes of the same aircraft? Every aircraft, depending on design, can display different flight characteristics. The viggens canards are in a different location, along with size and shape, than this model. I'll check the viddy's out a little later when I have time.
I'd like to see you try to add a split elevon setup somehow then put the split on a gyro for yaw control like the B2
I’d love to eventually
Why don't you try the F16XL design and then you can see what I've been saying about the fast and slow speed handling that I have been talking about
I’m definitely going to make that F16xxl 😁
@hotlapkyle I don't think that you will be disappointed at all with the flight characteristics of that wing design, another design that you might find interesting is the " monogram snaptite 1:72 stealth F19 mystery plane model kit, that's the most beautiful plane that I have ever seen in the air, I actually got to see it with my own eyes in flight, absolutely beautiful to say the least
Great video, but you have to stop cutting the videos short!!! You have to give us time to press the like button... I really hope you don't miss likes because of it... 👍🙂
