After the 1.5 meter DLG build.
Starting to thinking about 2 Meter thermal glider.

First, thank Dr. Drela's Magnificent design that share with we folks.

Many thank to local hobbist rtll, he already made a Aegea fuse for a long time.
I just make a gelcoat fuse copy from him.


Just start from the wing.

Nice! I'm making an Aegea too. Good luck with your build.

I'd appreciate if you give some details about the wing construction. How you did it, materials you did use, etc.

Regards.

Good to see another Aegea underway!! I'll also building an Aegea 2, which is semi documented in Ryan's build thread.

I'm curious about your wing. Is the black CF or just adhesive tape holding things in place? Are you building this as a 2 piece wing with a flat center section and dihedral at the mid and tip panel breaks? I'm trying to make sense of what you are showing in your pics :)

Wing dihedral point is black CF holding things in place.
