/diy/ - Do It Yourself

I'm working on this motorized glider thingy, wingspan around 2m chord 44mm and thickness 4.4mm. The frame is a carbon fiber tube and the wings are also a carbon fiber tube with 3d printed spars slid on them and then glued to keep them in place. The motor mounts and all that are also 3d printed and very light.

I'm actually considering if i could at some point start producing these in a bit bigger numbers and selling them, i could probably sell these at 2/3 the price of the cheapest glider kit while still making atleast some profit. Thoughts?

It's nearing completion! 2 meter wingspan, 44mm chord, 4.4mm thickness and and aspect ratio of somewhere around 46, i can't wait to see how it flies!
