Last week I popped one of the Lidi XL_Gliders in the shopping basket for £7.99.
So far...
Carbon fibre spar in fuselage
Wing flattened
Carbon fibre spar in the wing
Front chopped and a the cockpit hollowed out
Front bulkhead printed for motor - 2206 2200kv
Ailerons cut out, bevelled and attached with Blenderm tape
Two servo holes cut on wing
Rear elevator cut and I hinged this with some PTFE sheet
Embedding the elevator in the tail so all pushrods are going to be super short
Really hoping to get this ready for a maiden tomorrow afternoon.
