experimental magnus effect rc plane

Experimental RC airplane with the Magnus effect. This is a hybrid project. It uses 3D-printed parts and laser-cut foam pieces. A template is also included, so a laser cutter isn't necessary. The foam is HD300B (3 mm). In Germany, it's available from Gerstäcker and Modellbau-Profi. You can find other suppliers via Google.I use a 60W diode laser to cut the foam. The parameters are 95% power and 16,500 mm/min. If you're using a lower-powered laser, reduce the speed. Even a 5W laser should easily cut this material in one pass.If you don't have a laser available, you can use the templates and a sharp knife.I use a 60W diode laser to cut the foam. The following carbon fiber tubes are also needed for building the aircraft:6x4x1000 mm (fuselage and motor mount)3x2x600 mm (axis for the rotating wings) I used a T-Motor 1806-2300kV from an old copter, a simple 20A ESC, a 6030 propeller, an EMAX ES08MD servo (vector control), and a 3S 1300mAh LiPo battery. The wing offers many posi
