RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Thanks everyone, i'm really glad you like it.

Hi Claude, i didn't really use the name "Hypnose" excepting the paintscheme renders for the composite version. Thought about a name for a while, and finally decided to call it "Radiance".

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Who cares the name?!?!?! IT's beutiful a flyies like a dream!!!! (just kidding...)

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Alex, how has this updated (lighter weight) design progressing?

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Hi Mark,

The V2 prototype was built by a friend of mine and is almost ready to fly. Fuselage is already glassed and painted, only wings and stabs need to be film covered.
Fuselage is almost identical on the outside, but the internal structure is completely different. Wings and stabs are swept, foam and balsa construction, but the plan is to also design and build balsa structure wings. Will post details here as soon as possible.

Very nicely done Alex. Beautiful plane and it seems to me a very nice flying..

Best regards from Serbia,
Nikola

Hi Paulo,
Please check your PM.

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Alex, if you ever want to sell it as a plan, count me in for a copy.

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Alex, I was so impressed with your work, I posted your thread over at my control line stunt Forum. They are pretty strict about keeping it control line stunt, but the administrator allowed this one to roll. Brother, this is what I am talking about!! As a modeler who uses the same tools you do, this is the type of inspiration and direction I like, to show me just how I need to conduct my business.

Bravo.

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Thank you for the kind words.
Some high resolution pictures were uploaded on a friend's server but it went offline and unfortunately the pictures were lost. I'll try to edit my posts and attach the images here on RCU.

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Hello Alex

I think this is the wooden Radiance !
Is it your own plane and what is version 2 ?
Nice to know you are going to sell kit.
Claude

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Hi Claude,

Yes, it's a revised version, with balsa structure swept wings and stabs and reworked fuselage structure. 2 more prototypes were built and flown by my friend Tommie from South Africa and we're now preparing the final version (V4) that will be released soon as a short kit. Will start a new build thread when everything is ready.

Alex

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Hello Alex

Thank for your answer.
Very good choice to make wings and stab in balsa structure.
When you will be ready, if you agree I put a thread of your plane on our French Forum F3A

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

Sure, no problem. I am familiar with the french forums and read them every day.

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

So when is the ARF version coming out ?

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

At the moment we're working on a short kit that should be ready at the end of september. An ARF takes a lot of time to build and would cost a lot more.

RE: Designing a new pattern model
 

For the subscribers of this thread: the Radiance kits are finally ready.
