Summary

Caracara - RC Glider / Motor glider

Similar to the Crobe, but bigger (Wing span 930mm).

Based on original design (balsa made) designed by Franck Aguerre, described here : http://lecrobe.free.fr - Look Caracara.zip

Requires :

Two servos like Corona DS-939MG or HK939MG (HK clone)
Lipo 1S 600mAh or bigger, 2S prefered with HV servos (glider)
Motor 1806-2300Kv + 10A controller + 2S-450mAh + 6x3prop or similar setup
Tiny 4ch receiver
Main carbon rod diam. 4mm
2mm balsa for elevator
Small parts (pvc tube 2/1mm, steel rod diam 1mm...)

Print

Around 150g of PLA+
Printer height max 218mm (Part1_Glider), alternatively the glider fuselage can be done with Part1_Motorized + Nose for smaller printers.
No support required, just some brim.
Layer thickness 0.2mm - One 0.4mm wall (can be lowered to 0.36mm for part2/part3)
Layer 0.12mm and line width 0.3mm for 'Light' versions of wings.
'flat' wing means without dihedral, like original balsa's Caracara.
Hatch/lock : layer thickness 0.15mm, 2 perimeters = 0.8mm

Weight

Light wing : ~41g each wing
Complete fuselage for pure glider : ~51g
RTF weight : around 240g with motor and 2S -450mAh

RC settings

Delta mixer
Elevator function: +/-6mm (measured at trailing edge / wing root)
Aileron function: +/-4mm
