3rd flight: I don't think flying directly in front of the sun was the right idea...

looks very nice, I did hte same thing and ended up witha shatterred nose so... Its looking quite good though! Are you gonna have a build video/instructions?

I don't know about a build video, but I could release instructions
I'm also planning to add the link to the onshape document

I just shattered the nose of my Mirage 2000 but its repairable, otherwise it flew great!

It was a 3d printed nose, which is why it shatterred instead of denting.

nice! If you do a onshape doc make sure to name every body and function and all that for what it is, not leaving unnamed stuff, that kinda annoys me when there are a lot of "unititleds", and I dont think I am the only one. ALso the cahllenge requires some sort of build video/instructions.

Oh mine broke because it was foam board. It was my first time landing with a edf jet and the nose just bumped the ground a little too hard. Otherwise it went great! Until i lost orientation...It will fly again though!

mine flew into fence, righ tinto the sun, and almsot over a playground with kids I decided to crash it instead of hoping Id regain sight of it. It wasnt that bad, reprint the nose, rebuild, and Ill get it flying again. Just not soon, AP tests are in the way.

looks like it flies really nice, although its a bit sad that you removed the master series looks, it looked really cool like that!

yeah, I might give it another try since onshape recently added a curvature analysis tool for complex shapes
FlyerInStyle
Elite member
what was the problem with the curves?
Firestar119

There weren't any native onshape tools to flatten curved shapes

Oh yeah? I wonder if that would help with my Master Series Sr - 71 Blackbird I am working on.....

Oh that, I thought you were talking about for making lofts go easier....

The lofts behave as long as you give them enough guides
