Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Helicopters / August 2007Re: Focke Wulf 61, A possible RC project?
BasilBadger, I did a search and this is the only post ever made on this model. Yo see, I am scratchbuilding one, as an autogyro! :p And yes, there is plan and if you want, I can give it to you. Eric Hey, I got a friend from Denmark too. ; -- EricClar Here is a pic of the plan and some photos of the real thing. This pla is not totally scale though since the designer made it an autogyro. don't care though, I actually think its cool +------------------------------------------------------------------- |Filename: FA-61.jpg |Download: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=1405097 +------------------------------------------------------------------- -- EricClar Hi Eric, Thank you for the pictures and plans. I am still not ready to start planning building the FW-61 as helicopter, but one day i hope to attack that project. Those rotor heads are still an unknown. Perhaps i should go visit som of the museums i Germany where they have the FW-61s. I have trie contacting them by email but have gotten no answers. A good look at the mechanics would probably answer many of th questions. I would very much like good copies of the plans! Perhaps you would like the pictures i have collected from the net? Building it as an autogyro makes sense, since it does away with most o the unknowns surrounding this fascinating aircraft. I think i will giv it a go too. Let us keep in contact. I wish you the best of luck and many happy landings, Henri -- BasilBadge Well Henrik, I sent you an email through RCGroups so I don't know if yo will get it or not... I have never done it through this site, but assume it will work. In case you don't get it just put a post here an I'll figure something out. Eri -- EricClar > BasilBadger, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Hey, I got a friend from Denmark too. ;) I bet they don't know each other.  SignatureBeav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19 I doubt it also. Its highly unlikely and I didn't expect him to kno him, I was just commenting on it since I knew a foreign exchang student from Denmark and leaned a bit about their language and culture -- EricClar Well, here's a link to my build if anyone's interested http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=717446 Eri -- EricClar >Well, here's a link to my build if anyone's interested. >http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=717446 > >Eric That looks pretty cool. Have ya flown it yet? (Sorry, didn't check the date on the last post in that thread) You do realize that video of the first flight is required for the rest of us to see, right? "You do realize that video of the first flight is required for the res of us to see, right?" Hehe, yeah I will have one but I can't be sure it will be the firs flight. ;) (I'm not so sure it will fly :p ) And no I haven't flown i yet the date is TODAY on the last post. :D All thats left is to connec the servos with the rudder and elevator and its ready to go -- EricClar >Hehe, yeah I will have one but I can't be sure it will be the first >flight. ;) (I'm not so sure it will fly :p ) And no I haven't flown it >yet the date is TODAY on the last post. :D All thats left is to connect >the servos with the rudder and elevator and its ready to go! Yeah, but if you destroy it on the 1st flight, we'll never get to see it airborne. :) Well, ya see.... I tried to fly it this morning and it didn't fly. think I know why and if want to know more its all in the thread above Also, any videos/pics I get will be posted in that thread also. : Cheers! BTW, I did have the camera rolling for the flight this morning, it just that it didn't go. ; -- EricClar |
