RC Sailplane Wing Joiner (Volo Sample)

RC Sailplane Wing Joiner (Volo Sample)

Description

The attached STL file is for 3D printing the shell of an 8.5 deg. wing joiner for the Volo F5J sailplane (electric motor launched). The design requires a 6mm square protruded carbon tube to be bonded into the center channel that spans the entire joiner. The finished joiner should weigh around 10g if you do not use an excessive amount of epoxy when bonding the carbon tube. -Randy CAUTION: At minimum, ensure that the filament you use does not weaken significantly in the heat that your plane's wing may experience when out in the sun. Also, this design is intended for motor-launched F5J sailplanes--NOT RECOMMENDED FOR WINCH LAUNCH without testing the resulting part for that purpose. DISCLAIMER: This 3D printed part is obviously an important structural component to the wing of your plane. Use this design and any derivatives at your own risk. It is your responsibility to verify that the resulting structural part is suitable for your purpose.
