This is the model plane of „HAND GLIDER“ – cheap, quick to complete and easy to fly. It is primarily dedicated to kids as their first construction model plane with ambition to make them excited for aviation and significantly expedite time2fly. They can experience real basics of sticking two or more components together, operation with working planes and angles, central of gravity management and finally to adjust and learn their planes fly. To keep building accuracy, they can use additional printable tools and supports, these also are enclosed, e.g. wing camber, perpendicular anges for rudder and elevator.
This model plane is fully scalable, and you can choose from two sizes by default – 135% and 150%. If you need a different size of it, you can easily create it in a slicer application. Please note – it is not recommended to scale down below 135% size. If you prefer to stay between 135-149%, please use 135% files as your base. If you need this plane even bigger, please use the 150% version as your base. There is the different wing construction for above 150% size.
To complete the plane, you will need just CA clue and CA clue activator.
For 3D printing, please activate brims and relevant bed supports for both parts of wings. No need to have these specials for the other parts.
You need to print one piece of each file, the files starting with xxx% are adjusted to the appropriate size, files without xxx% are the same for any size of the plane. CG is at 1/3 of wing width measured from leading edge.
Happy flights and landings. Thank you for sharing your feedback.
