So this is my development thread for dtfb LTE Rambler, i will be building it as a night flyer. after hearing what burkeomatic said about leds and how they suck battery up fast i will most likely run them off of a smaller battery rather than my main battery. Intended specs as follows Wingspan: 1000mm Lentgh: 600mm Motor: cheap orange 2212 Esc: Firestarter yellow esc Battrey: 4s 1800/3s 2200 and a 2s 650 for lights specs have been edited to what i have and what i can get without spending more than 50-60$ on the plane excluding rx  |

I've always thought those were neat planes. Just about bought one actually. Look at this thread, another cool plank plane. www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?3841335-GrauGans-FPV-PlankI was and still am eventually going to knock this off with DTFB wings and a XPS fuselage covered with fiberglass. You are welcome to what I have done with the plans so far too. |

You are welcome to what I have done with the plans so far too. i would happily take the plans as the bench is relatively free (only three projects  ) i think at 50% it would be sweet I loaded it up in the google drive. The idea was to have wing formers create a specific airfoil for the wing, that is optional. I was going to have the wings removeable, I have a system that works ok using 1/4 inch dowels and ice maker hose like if you are interested. They were going to go through the fuselage, and where the wings mounted it was going to be drilled blocks of wood reinforcing the foam fuselage. I think it is set up to have a 60ish inch wingspan. You just print out the profiles, and shape the XPS to the size you want. I was going to cover it with fiberglass/WBPU. It isn't all the way thought out. I don't have any allocations for how I was going to carve out the inside for batteries and such. With a 30-40 inch wingspan, I think it would fly fine on a 2205 motor. |
