700mm span flying wing. It has been scaled down from a Zagi plan and a fuz added below the wing to make the motor and radio easier to fit
The fuz was made with 1/16" balsa but depron would be fine, It is a basic box fuz with a laminated depron nose shape added.
In the first build I was working using a scaled down zagi drawing and the indicated position turned out to be too far forward I then rebuilt the fuz extending out the back and moving the motor 35mm back from the origonal position. The nose was shortened by about 30mm.
By moving the fuz backwards, the cut out for the prop is now not needed. The ailerons can be lengthened so they go right next to the fuz.
I couldnt bother doing this as my wing had already been built.
If you are making a tapered wing I recommend the top side of the spar is flat and the spar is tapered along its lower edges, glue the flat of the spar to the top wing first, on a nice flat surface. Fit the lower skin, still using the flat surface, to make the whole wing flatest along the top surface with the "V" along the lower surface.
In this video I`ll go over my "Lessons Learned" with building # X Guillow model aircraft - the Lancer and two Arrows - and converting them to radio control flight and discussing a flight...
