Elipsia indoor model


I did find the Elipsia model for the AFPD simulator and I have been impressed by its performance, so I decided to reproduce one. First step getting the plans, which I was not able to find in interned. Being it a fomie I thought it was enough to have the 2 views, side and top, to make it, so I entered the edit model mode on AFPD, placed the Elipsia on perfect top and side view and catched the image with proper software. Images have been reworked and placed on such dimensions that could be printed with the posteriza program ( my second post) on 3Wx5H horiz. paper for the top view and 5Wx1H vert.paper for the side view . Despite the obtained drawing are not perfect it is possible to built the model with some adaptations.
Flying exclusively outdoor I skipped the airbrakes on ailerons. The result is what you can see in the video ( pls consider that I am a terrible 3D flyer)
