Messersmith ME163

Fiberglass fuselage made same way as my gliders and foam wing covered with 1,5 mm balsa and oracover.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6DHKMuEkEA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyFb1qocsSQ My scratch build Messersmith ME 163, now with Turnigy 2836 Brushless Motor 3700kv, 65 amp Turnigy ESC, 5 cell 40 c batt. 4,1x4,1 sport prop.
1200 w power.
Almost to fast, and certainly to much for the motor, so I now only use 3 cell batt and 4,5x4,5 prop

SpeedsterDEN

My scratch built messersmith ME 163 maiden flight.

The prop is too soft and went into flutter and the sound from the prop was louder than a nitro engine.
The motor was a Turnigy 28-26 1900 with a 25 A ESC and a 8x4 prop.
3 cell 1050 Mha Rhino batt.
Weight is 600 gram (21 ounce).
78 cm span. 51 cm long.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzP9H-3nk1g And a new 7x7 speed prop
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmqDg3o47cU But now I use a Turnigy 28 36 3700 and 4,5x4,5 prop and 1800 mha 40 c , 3 cell batt.

SpeedsterDEN

My large ME 163 projekt,
Got the fuselage for free, and made scratch build wings for it.
I Think it was 137 cm span.
Not much luck with that, first it almost went up in flames due to a burning ESC.
But until it crashed it was fun.
First with a Turnigy 42 50 1000 and 115 amp esc
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoB2mlJl-VU Then with a
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vK2DRCKiJYo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rw2979zP_g8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fr0DguGUixA Then it went Down real real hard, due to a rx malfunktion, and also totaly smashed 2x 4000 mha 4 cell batts, and almost went up in flames for the second time.


I didnt get the crash on video, but I made a Komet crater in the childrens sand pit with the sad wreck

Next one was a 3,8 meter glider, but the wing was to soft, so i cut the wing and fuselage and made a light Wind 2,5 meter thermal/slope glider.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pe2BnHcBZwI And a 4,85 meter fiberglass glider:

And then a 3 meter glider with normal balsa build up wing.

And using the fuselage pod from the Speedster 78"

I made a mold for this, so now its fast to make..
