RC Gliders

This is a video of my second attempt to build a DLG (Discus Launch Glider) RC glider. I think this attempt was/is much better then my first attempt. The wings (Dollar Store Foam) are much stiffer and shaped more like an airfoil. I was able to route the control lines through the boom. I made the elevator and rudder out of balsa wood with was a much better choice than the foam I used on my first build. I'm hoping to test fly it soon.

While at home for an extended stay with my parents, I decided to use FlyBoa's method to build a Dollar Store Foam DLG glider. This was my first effort and building a RC Glider. I didn't have any experience and really winged it using tools I could find in my Dad's garage. I ordered a cheap RC Transmitter and basically put something together. This video is of the build and first flight attempts. Enjoy - Mike
