BHL2-16 evo updated to 2021. Includes all parts in A4 format to print. |
| 2021-11-27 |
WARNING!: Fixed an unintentionally bug added in all previous LEparagliding "Z" versions: All VH-ribs between ribs "0" and "1" had incorrect geometry (!) Due to not putting the negative sign at the angles "beta" and " rot_z " on the rib number " 0 " (the symmetrical rib on the "1"). Affects exclusively the VH-straps located inside the central cell. Fixed already in new version 3.16+ I found yet another error in defining type 1 horizontal straps. Their width is TWICE multiplied by the overall scale factor of the wing. In this version, this is not modified, to be able to more easily update the wings calculated with 3.16. |

gnuA series WARNING NOTE (!) This note 2021-07-21 affects all gnuA models, all sizes and versions. After doing some tests with the gnuA5 15 m2 and gnuA4 27 m2 prototypes, it was seen that the initial calage project setting is too back (31%). To temporarily solve this, it is necessary to use special risers in a normally accelerated position, shortening them in the specified measures. |

On December 2019 exploring another simple OpenSCAD script to draw the structure of the hang glider, fully parametric. Only four strokes of code... but I can imagine the complete wing, including the sail design. Script here, and screenshot. In the Laboratory there is a wonderful world to explore. There are many ideas and dreams to develop. Soon... |
