An Italian DAG-60 is growing!
Hi guys!
Here are some pics of my dag 60 autogiro. Got it this summer, the building is getting slow because of the fact that I haven't got any electricity on my SkyLab and days are always shorter. I'm going to put a 1.20PH FS on it. I had a positive experience with this motor. They run smoot and slow! Yhea! First question: How sould i complete my balsa blade after i glued the 1/8 wire to the leading edge? Just cover them with oracover or similar or do I need to apply fiberglass to them? Sorry for the quality, I do promise next will be better! |

Looking very clean, very good.
I use "balsaloc" to help ballance the blades before covering in "Oracover". I can add 2 or 3 coats to get the ballance right, or just extra coats on the end of a blade to get the centre-of-ballance of all blades the same. Hope this helps Regards Andy |

Once i bent them, they didn't fit properly. Getting one part to fit means to be wrong on the other side! My patience will win! |

Here I am!
Hi everybody! The work proceeds slowly. Here is the last ver. of landing gear. I'm ready to solder, But recently I realized that the acetylene cylinder is empty. Infact I could not light-up the dart to solder. Also the borax got humid. Doesn't matter, on saturday i will be ready again. Other things are almost done, I'm very happy. |
