I've found if I'm the only one using a particular hashtag it's not so flash.

#DLG #DiscusLaunchGlider

The wing is a paper thin layer of carbon fiber, lightly adhered to a foam core. So no processes can be at all aggressive. I've considered covering it with frisket paper but I'm not liking the idea of having to peel it off.
I can and likely will tape on a bit of thin PP document folder and apply color to that to try.

Any suggestions welcome....

I've got an artistic/graphic/image question.

Below is shown a pic of an RC plane wing, with a hexagonal graphic pattern. In stark contrast to the pic, in real life the contrast of the blue and purple to the black is not enough.

My scheme is to modify it such that it becomes lighter by way of added color, also gaining a cool 3-D look. Like the other picture, of the hexagonal tiles.

But I do not have the skillset to figure out where to apply the color and how much of what.
And I'd like it to look nice and I'd like to only have to do it once....

Can it be done with white highlights? Are there paint pens that aren't solvent based that I could experiment with?

@thams

Will have a vario in my DLG here shortly.

You can call me Nick, no worries. 😁

No, I've not seen a complete DLG plane that's 3D printed.
To my knowledge, there's power planes and slope planes, but I think that's it.

A friend just did some 3D molds and is using them to construct a fairly conventional fuselage from carbon fiber and such, I'd have to look back but I think he's already done the tails with 3D molds. He's going to try wings, and he does lots of jigs for drilling and shaping holes.

Just found a setup guide for my #ZorroRadio

YOLO! 🤣

Endeavoring to set it up for my #DLG #DiscusLaunchGlider

Shouting out to all RC plane folks

You should get one if you don't have one!

@KylePlantEmoji

M.E. here, so I guess literally not a scientist, but ask me about #DiscusLaunchGlider or crack propagation or #MotoGP

I dare you!

@LitMoose

I'm still very much a noob, but this makes me smile.

It's quite interesting, if it's your thing.

Seems to only interest guys.
I've not yet been able to completely explain that in my head. There are lots of guys in it that are not builders, one can buy complete ready to fly planes from $100 to $Xk and some do.
