Año nuevo... cacharro nuevo!! Fox de multiplex o Foxito para los amigos

Después de la resaca de las navidades en general y las fiestas jolgorrio en particular :D , había que empezar bien el año, con un proyecto pequeñito y sencillo de realizar, que no requiriese de mucho esfuerzo a las pocas neuronas que quedan operativas después de tanta juerga. Por tanto, era aconsejable que el proyecto no requiriese grandes dosis de dedicación ni grandes dosis de dinero para su realización.
Aprovechando que unos cuantos Fox de multiplex (por el tamaño yo los hubiese llamado Foxitos) aterrizaron en mi casa durante las navidades y que además tenía unos días de vacaciones, ¿que mejor momento para echar mano del cutter y practicar con uno de ellos mis dotes de Jack el Destripador? :D

Se trata de un avión que en principio está diseñado para niños, para que lo puedan lanzar a mano. Es un avión pequeñito, de 50 cm de envergadura y fabricado en epp (o al menos eso me parece a mi por la flexibilidad y resistencia que tiene). El avión viene en 3 partes: el fuselaje, las alas y el timón de profundidad. Se monta entero en 20 segundos y encajan todas las partes perfectamente entre sí, sin la más mínima holgura, ideal para llevar en el coche y montárselo al niño en cualquier parque. No he probado el planeo que tiene pero por lo que han comentado los que sí lo han probado, planea de maravilla.

Como en realidad, lo que a mi me interesaba era ponerle alerones y timón de profundidad para darme el gustazo de verlo pasar por el borde de la ladera, ahí va una breve crónica del making off:

  • Aquí están los 5 fox que llegaron (no, no soy un enfermo, no son todos para mi):



Vienen en dos colores (naranja y blanco) y alternando el color del fuselaje con el color de las alas y el timón, es decir, el que tiene el fuselaje naranja, tiene las alas y timón en blanco y al revés.

En mi caso, como al final me quedé con dos, decidí montar uno completamente en blanco (excepto la cabina, en naranja) y tengo otro totalmente en naranja (excepto la cabina en blanco).

  • Como se puede apreciar, el avión una vez montado es de tamaño mini:



  • Para ajustar el CG lleva una bolita de metal de unos 9 gr oculta en la cabina. Por supuesto, para la transformación a ladera, esa bolita fue a parar a la caja de los posibles (posibles cachibaches que quizás algún día sirvan para otra cosa que acumular polvo y ocupar espacio), porque en mi casa no se tira nada (como me inculcaron de pequeño :D ), que hay mucha gente que pasa hambre.

Como el avión es renacuajo, los componentes a montar también deberían serlo, así que había que rebuscar entre toda la cacharrada a ver que encontraba algo acorde al tamaño del "huesped":
  1. Un servo de 5 gr para alerones, como este.
  2. Otro servo, de 4 gr para el timón de profundidad, como este otro.
  3. El receptor fue cedido por Germán para la causa. Hubo que hacerle algo de cirujía porque se le había puesto una antena que no le correspondía y tenía más interferencias que un móvil en una fiesta de microondas, pero con un poco de cutter y un quítame por aquí y ponme por allá parece que empezó a funcionar decentemente a más de 3 m de distancia (habrá que probarlo más intensamente en campo abierto).
  4. Encontrar unas baterías ya fue un poco más complicado, en un principio había pensado aprovechar el mismo pack que uso en el p40 micro, pero aun siendo un pack muy pequeño, me parecía un poco grande para el fox, iba a necesitar mucha cirujía y tenía miedo de que después quedase el morro demasiado endeble. De casualidad, buscando otra cosa, en una tienda de manualidades y maquetismo encontré unos packs de baterías muy pequeñitos, de 5 elementos ni-mh y 150mA, que excepto por tener un elemento más de los necesarios, era perfecto para mis propósitos, así que una vez amputada la parte sobrante (el elemento de más, no penseis mal) y vuelto a montar el pack con un conector jst, el resultado en peso y tamaño fue exactamente lo que necesitaba.



Una vez reunido todo lo necesario, me puse manos a la obra y empezó la carnicería (la mia y la del avión, que hubo sangre por ambas partes, como corta el jodío cutter).
  • Para el servo de alerones fue necesario cortar por varias partes, un par de cortes de los dolorosos en el fuselaje y otro en el ala, para encajar el servo y que no se moviese (no tengo fotos porque con la impresión de ver semejantes agujeros en fuselaje y ala se me olvidó sacar fotos, aunque se intuye el resultado en una de las fotos posteriores :D ).
  • En el morro había que hacer sitio para embutir las baterías, el receptor y el servo de cola, intentando que todo tuviese sitio y no se amontonasen los cables unos encima de otros. Una vez hechos los huecos del receptor y las baterías, me di cuenta de que si metía ahí también el servo de cola, el pobre avión iba a quedar más cabezón que Pepe Navarro, así que me pareció buena idea una foto que vi en un foro alemán del servo montado debajo del timón de profundidad y decidí hacer yo lo mismo.

  • Aquí se puede ver como quedan el receptor y las baterías, además del servo de alerones ya colocado en su sitio.


  • A la cabina le pegué unas chinchetas metálicas, de esta forma, con unos pequeños imanes de neodimio en el fuselaje, la cabina ya no saldría volando por su cuenta.

  • Así es como quedaron los componentes en el morro:

En principio voy a probar que tal vuela con parte de la antena del receptor recogida en el fuselaje, porque sobraba mucha longitud y colgaba demasiado, a ver si no me llevo una sorpresa desagradable.


Bueno, y aquí unas fotos del resultado final, falta poner una tira de cinta de fibra de vidrio en el borde de ataque de las alas y otra poca cinta en la panza para que no se manche en los aterrizajes, lo demás está todo listo.






El video tendrá que esperar al estreno, que viendo las previsiones del tiempo, tardará una temporadita en producirse.

Así tendré más tiempo para ir preparando el siguiente cacharro volador (que ya está en casa)!!! muhahahahahahaha!!!! (rísa maléfica)

Hola, estoy montando un Fox siguiendo los pasos que tu has hecho en tu blog, pero tengo un problema,

Tengo un receptor de 7 canales que se alimenta con una bateria de 5s de NiCD de 6v (163g en total, sin contar avion y servos), crees que con este peso añadido se me aguantara en la ladera?

Gracias

P.d. Si me quieres contestar lo puedes hacer en mi correo, ppcc_punx-47@hotmail.com

xyz0k dijo...

Hombre, son 163g, más el avión (50g) más servos, 15g (los 3) más o menos.

Esto sube a 228g. Yo por ese peso, le añado el motor, el variador, los 3 servos y 2 varillas de carbono para las trasmisiones y para reforzar las alas. Y me sale por unos 200g.

Si quieres más ayuda visita nuestra página, tenemos varios expertos que te lo podrán explicar mejor que yo ;)

Everything about horse betting

Where did that harbinger of doom, the missing 0.5% of handle go? Our best guess is that you'll find that, and much more, going to the enterprising non-pool race and sports books that have cropped up to better serve today's horse racing fans. Most of these on-line books offer full track odds, signup bonuses, cash back on wagers, and give refunds for scratches, instead of forcing the bet to the track favorite. Oh, and did we mention that most don't impose taxes of any sort on winnings.
[url=http://www.pulsebet.com]horses bet[/url]
In a sport that is not only highly competitive but relies on high-stakes gambling to sustain itself, some people feel it is unlikely that a practice shown to be a disadvantage would continue. However, such cruelties exist and many countries are taking strong steps to stop it. Like in India for example, it is banned, that is until the jockey has proven himself.


The Triple Crown, like so many of our best traditions, wasn't created, it grew into being. During the late 1800's three different tracks created races to test the new crop of three year olds. These three races, the Belmont Stakes, the Preakness and the Kentucky Derby were held in the same year for the first time in 1875. It wasn't until 44 years later that Sir Barton (1919) became the first horse to win all three. The term, Triple Crown, wasn't coined until 1930 when Daily Racing Form's columnist, Charles Hatton, used it while covering Gallant Fox's winning efforts.

[url=http://www.pulsebet.com]horse racing sportsbook[/url]
Barbaro with Edgar Prado on board has won all 6 of his lifetime starts, 4 of his wins in 2006 and all at distances of a mile or more (his first 3 races were on the turf). Barbaro will be the odds on favorite for the Preakness. Gone are the double digit returns when we picked him for the Derby so most of us are left looking for horses to combine him with for the exacta, trifecta and superfecta wagers. Even though we want to see him win, at the probable scant return for a win, one must look to see if there's a horse in the field that can best him.

As the French players celebrated the victory at the end of the game, Guti said that Madrid hadn’t played well, not as it used to. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]real madrid fotos[/url] Just entering the second half, Raul Gonzalez collected a pass from Ronaldo to finish the play and set up the first goal of the match. Only two minutes after, Matteo Contini saw the red card and Zaragoza was left with 10 players. But far from collapse due to the expulsion, the Zaragoza player Adrian Colunga faced Iker Casillas and got the equalizer at minute 61. Despite this goal, the Whites kept attacking but it was not until minute 82 when Kaka, who came back from injury, picked up a deep pass from Ronaldo and put the final 2-1 for Real Madrid.
bet football
A few short minutes after the opening of the game, in minute 5, the Meringues opened the score. A foul gave a free kick to Esteban Granero, who crossed a pass that was headed by Sergio Ramos, putting the scoreboard at 1-0. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]karim benzema[/url] With the win, Real Madrid joins Barcelona at the top of the standings with 12 points. There is no doubt that this will be a very competitive season in La Liga.

Playing bingo needs more than luck or skills and techniques, contrary to what most believe. Bingo, just like any game of chance, comes with rules and regulations that players should observe. Being a player comes with responsibilities and etiquette.

Winning the Game

The moment you figured out you won, you must immediately yell BINGO, and it should be loud enough for the floor walker to hear. The pot money shall be given to the winner once their winning card is confirmed. Well, in winning or once you know you just won, the most important thing is that you shout the winning word BEFORE the time elapses. If the game proceeds and the next number is mentioned and you failed to shout "Bingo", your winning card is disqualified. Therefore, this is the rule you must know.

There may be cases when there are two winners, and in this case the pot money shall be divided equally among the winners. Supposing there are two winning cards, the two winners will share half the prize money.

Bingo Game Rules

Bingo rules are basically the same no matter in which Online Bingo hall you play. But still it's good if you know these rules by heart. If it is your first try, then ask for handouts and inquire from pros regarding the game rules. Nonetheless, the ideal thing to do if you have questions is to ask the floor walker and not the person seated beside you. You should clarify things and doubts before the game starts because asking too many questions as the game proceeds could well distract you. This guideline also applies to those who are newcomers at casinos, those who play roulette for the first time.

Bingo halls demand an age limit of 18 years old. If you are below this age, you are prohibited to play. Some bingo houses ban alcohol inside, so players aren't supposed to take liquor nor drink it inside the venue. Smoking may also be restricted inside the venue, as there are designated smoking sections.

Take note that some Bingo houses don't allow food but some do, so it basically depends on the venue. Policies vary among different venues. For instance, some bingo halls allow reservation of cards, while others don't allow it. Some allow people to leave the venue in the middle of the game, others forbid it. But there are general policies observed in all bingo houses, such as disqualification of tampered bingo cards. There is no way you can get away with a tampered card because the walkers are adept at identifying authentic cards from tampered ones. You could be banned from a bingo establishment if proven liable of tampering a card. Hence, you should play honestly.

Interestingly, some venues offer special bingo games for kids although some halls don't allow players to have companions while playing. Suppose you bring kids with you, don't let them run around the venue and bother other gamers. They should behave well whilst you play and the game proceeds. Play quietly and don't recite the numbers you desperately want to come off because you'll be much of a disturbance if you do. Decorous playing is expectant of all players, even those who play roulette at casinos. Also, having a valid identification is important because you don't know you might win and need to present credentials.
