ORIGINAL: qldviking

sounds very interesting. I have a 180" ws glider on the drawing board I was going the same way with. 19:1 AR, built up wings f/g fuse and ff V-tail. Where do you get the mecanism?
I've got three sets of the Blingeron that I got last summer, however I got on the build list for them 2 years ago! If you want a set you either have to find someone who has an extra set they are willing to sell (not likely) or wait around until he says "Hey who wants some?" then you get on the list and he'll let you know when they are done, then you send the cash.

I'm designing my FluidX so that it can accomodate the Blingeron in the hopes that those who purchase my sailplanes will bug the said gentleman enough to start machinig them on a regular basis. They trully are works of art! 4 sealed bearings in each that the wing tubes pivot on. Absolutely no slop.

I've let him know what I'm doing and he sounded pleased with the idea but I'm sure he won't commit to anything until he sees that people are actually interested in my design.

I believe this may be the firast production model designed specifically to accomodate his Blingeron. The kits will of course be sold with there own mechanisms but not as fancy as the Bling.
