I have decided to offer build service for people. I offer a very affordable price for a great build.
all planes are built to customer specs. If you would like more info please contact me @ iconflyer@gmail.com

Thanks
Joe

Here is what one customer has already said.

I own the Orange Xplorer4 that Joe has pictured in the above post. I was refered to Joe though a mutual flying friend. Joe did charge me a fair and modest price for the build but he did it more as of a favor to a new limited experience builder. The build was completed in a day and a half and he even programed my radio too. The test flights were spot on with only a few trim adjustments and the Xplorer is great. It cg's at 119 with no lead. His build was neat clean and mechanicaly simple. I would recomend his service. I used all MKS servos and a JR 921rx. Battery is a AA 4cell eneloops sold by Soaring USA. Brad

Here are some more photos..

Special Pricing from now until the Southwest Classic $150 for a standard molded build $170 for an electric build. This price will be honored until after the Classic. If you get your name on the list now and pre order a build for after the classic you will get the same price.

Hi Joe, just a hint to get a stiffer setup you can do as pictured below and tie at least one end of the wing skins together and/or even the spar. A side benefit is not having to use the thrid screw so you can have one of the tabs under the wing skin making easier access.

That looks like a great suggestion.

Thanks

An even more effective way to tie the servo and the skins together, has better leverage and reduces both slop and risk of flutter. Can be done with a pre-cured carbon strip or plywood. Credit goes to Joe Wurts:



The main disadvantage is that if you need to remove the servo, you need to break the bond between the skin and the carbon/plywood, which is why the best way to glue it is with a few small drops of CA.

where must be glued carbon/plywood plate with CA?

only "a" or "b" too?
thx

It needs to be glued to both the wing skin and the servo, otherwise its purpose is defeated.

Guys thanks for that bit of info.

Here are pictures of a project i just finished its an electric Orion for SUSA

Ok even though this is not a glider it is my most recent build. Am also working on a 3.5 xplorer
