Because the size and weight create a higher degree for potential danger, an added measure of care and responsibility is needed when building and flying giant scale models. If this is your first giant scale aerobatic aircraft, it’s important that you carefully follow the instructions, especially those regarding hinging (pages 12-14), and the section on flying (36-41). Like all giant scale aerobatic aircraft, the 1/3 Scale CAP 232 requires powerful, heavy-duty servos. Servos greatly effect the flight performance, feel, and response of the model. To get the most out of your CAP, it’s important to use accurate, powerful servos with a minimum of 80 oz/in of torque for elevator and rudder and 60 oz/in torque for each aileron servo. In the prototype models we used JR 8101s and JR 8411s with excellent results. A less powerful servo can lead to a crash. The 1/3 Scale CAP 232 does not include hardware. Many experienced giant scale pilots have specific hardware preferences and can individually choose the components they prefer. Hangar 9 offers an optional Hardware Package (HAN1220-JR, HAN1221-FUT) that includes the hardware that our staff regularly uses and recommends. Throughout the manual, the above hardware will be used during the assembly process. If using another type/brand of hardware, it’s your responsibility to be sure that it’s strong enough for this application and properly installed. If you encounter difficulty in any construction sequence, please contact one of our technicians. We can provide assistance concerning the construction of your 1/3 Scale CAP 232. Contact us at: Horizon Hobby, Inc. 4105 Fieldstone Road Champaign, IL 61822 (217) 355-9511 www.horizonhobby.com Warning An R/C aircraft is not a toy! If misused, it can cause serious bodily harm and damage to property.

  • Effects of Stores on Aircraft Structure
    Effects of Stores on Aircraft Structure Wolfgang G. LUBER wgl-dynamics 81735 Munich GERMANY +49-172 832 9241 [email protected] ABSTRACT The approach to prove structural integrity of military combat aircraft with external stores focus on the understanding of the fundamental structural dynamics mechanisms involved and the identification of boundaries for all potential store loading up to the design limit of the aircraft. A finite element model is required which will be updated with ground and flight test results. The basic for the analytical investigation can be a coarse grid model which is derived from fine finite element component models, assembled to a complete aircraft model. The advantage of using the fine static grid model as basic model is that in case of refinement all used models can be updated in one step. From selected assumed mode a set of generalized unsteady aerodynamic matrices will be calculated. To analyze real conditions, aerodynamic interference of different surfaces is investigated. The analytical calculations were verified by low speed wind tunnel tests and flight test. The main flight tests are flutter, structural coupling, and vibration and loads survey. Different excitation methods and maneuvers were used to excite the aircraft in a symmetric or antisymmetric case. 1.0 INTRODUCTION The layout of military aircraft structures is strongly influenced by dynamic loads from the early development phase onwards up to final design and clearance phase. Different dynamic loads have to be considered, namely dynamic gust loads, buffet loads on wing, fin, fuselage also buffet loads from airbrakes, cavities and blisters, gunfire loads mainly at attachment frames and panels, Hammershock loads for air intake, bird strike and ammunition impact, acoustic loads for outer air intake and missile bays.

  • FSAE Chassis Hardpoint Optimization
    FSAE Chassis Hardpoint Optimization Final Design Review 03/19/2021 Chris Soohoo [email protected] Dwarak Reddy [email protected] Ethan Vallivero [email protected] Project Sponsor: Project Advisor: John Fabijanic Mechanical Engineering Department California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo ME 430 Winter 2021 1 Statement of Disclaimer Since this project is a result of a class assignment, it has been graded and accepted as fulfillment of the course requirements. Acceptance does not imply technical accuracy or reliability. Any use of information in this report is done at the risk of the user. These risks may include catastrophic failure of the device or infringement of patent or copyright laws. California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo and its staff cannot be held liable for any use or misuse of the project. 2 Abstract Our team has been tasked with optimizing hardpoints for the Cal Poly Racing team. Hardpoints are the locations on the chassis of a car that are designed to carry both internal and external loads, they are the areas where the engine and suspension connect to the chassis. These points are subject to torsion, shear, bending and pull-out loads. Cal Poly Racing needs more thoroughly analyzed individualized hardpoints that are optimized for weight, strength and specific stiffness, so they can reduce the overall weight and improve the race times of the vehicle while maintaining their strength and stiffness standards. Our team has reviewed past projects, research papers, and test results to gain a strong understanding of hardpoints. Our goal was to design a hardpoint that minimizes weight while maintaining the strength and stiffness standards of Cal Poly FSAE.

  • Dynamic Characteristics of Morphing Micro Air Vehicles
    DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF MORPHING MICRO AIR VEHICLES By MUJAHID ABDULRAHIM A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2004 In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful. My thesis in its entirety (apart from one sentence in the beginning of Chapter 4) is dedicated to my loving family, who have put up with my outrageous silliness in pursuit of academic achievements. To my father, who first led me down the path of innovation by helping me build my own toys. To my mother, who from the very beginning has been my advisor, counselor, and best friend. To my brother, who is my co-pilot in the clouded airspace of life. And to my sister, who is my ultimate role model for writing style and literary wit. The single outstanding sentence in Chapter 4 is dedicated to my rubber chicken, who provides irrelevant comic amusement like no other inanimate domestic animal can. Looks real, feels real, stretchable. Hells yeah. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The work presented in this thesis was heavily supported by a large group of highly supportive people. The bulk of the mentoring, advice, suggestions, and orders came from my research advisors, Dr. Richard Lind and Dr. Peter Ifju. Dr. Lind has helped me develop an understanding of flight test objectives, modeling strategies, and, more importantly, the effect of our work on the future of aerospace. Dr. Ifju has been the ultimate source for creative inspiration in aircraft design and fabrication technique.
