L-39 Albatros 90mm Fiberglass EDF Jet (Triones) - Build and Mods


Hello

Today, I ordered a legendary aircraft :
L39 ALBATROS (Triones)

(for 100mm EDF)
http://www.trionesmodel.com/L_39.html

I open this forum and I hope it will be full of ideas for the construction and setting flights of this jet

L-39 ALBATROS SPECIFICATIONS
Wing Span: 49.4 in /1254 mm
Wing area: 480.5 sq in / 31 sq dm
Flying weight: 6.6 lb / 3.2kg ( - estimated at 4,5 kg for me)
Fuselage length: 59 in /1495 mm


I think using the Skyworld fan JP 1000 - 101 mm Special Metal EDF Unit (7 blades) with ARC 3675-1 and ESC 120A (8S 5000 45C) and Lander Full Metal Tricycle Electric Retract System (3.5 - 7.5Kgs Flying Weight) with EUROKIT legs

See you soon with your ideas, photos and videos

was soon with more information on weight and wing area

Hello erh7771
These jets are rarely available and always in order with the supplier, so I did not hesitate to order it

I ordered this L39 here (France)
http://www.miniplanes.fr/avions-jets...f-p-34970.html

the least expensive (for me) for shipping! (20 $ for shipping in France )

Looks great MADISONMaster!

Be sure to at least, static balance the rotor by it's self using a prop balancer. (add weight to the light side with putty, coated with a very thin layer of 5 min epoxy.
If your not using tools (IE: dynamic balancer or cell phone balancing), dynamically the balance the complete fan setup while running a low rpms, by turning the spinner 90 degrees and feeling for the smoothest position.
Please mount the fan securely to the bench, take safey precautions, and do not run the fan at high speed in close proximity to yourself. This applies to all EDFs.

Have fun, Gary

That's around 4.5lbs, that's 8oz more than my FF F100 weights and it's a floater, should be interesting

Anyone know were to buy this in the US?

Thx

static balance rotor


Hello
efflux RC
Thanks - static balance the rotor ... yes i always do that because it is very dangerous if we neglect this ...... by cons, I do not know the method in Dynamics !
there is 7 blades in this Skyworld fan JP 1000

----
For information, the fixed landing set weighs 150 gr with 3 wheels (foam 65mm) and rhodoïd trust tube weighs 50g

retractable landing gear for the L39


Hello

I received my landing gear legs Eurokit
DU-BRO front wheel 57mm
Main wheel 60mm Eurokit
Total weight landing gear witht electric RC Lander about 416 gr (5 to 7.5kg and these Main landing can turn 90° - 266 gr more than the fixed gear )
It will provide a small bump on the extrado because of the thickness of the landing gear

Resumption of activities at the end of the year
