Unique RC Rutan Boomerang [Scale 1/3.5]
Beschreibung zum Video:
Gerhard Grambow flies his unique Rutan Model 202 Boomerang at the HORIZON AIRMEET 2024
Model data:
Scale: 1/3.5
Wingspan: 3.2 m / 125.9 inches
Length: 2.67 mm / 105.1 inches
Engines: 2 x Saito FG 57 TS four-stroke boxer
Weight: 24.7 kg / 54.5 pounds
Model construction:
– Fuselages, cowlings, tips, vertical stabilizer in 3-D printing, mold making and composite construction
– Wings and horizontal stabilizers in styrodur, carbon, abachi
Design: Erwin Schmelzer
Construction: Erwin Schmelzer, Gerhard Grambow
Club: MFG Ramelsloh e.V.
The construction time was two and a half years, but with a few interruptions. It is difficult to estimate the time required, but it was around 700 hours each time.
Only a three-sided view and many photos from the Internet were available for the construction. The three-sided view was, however, very high quality and was created by the current operator of the Boomerang, Tres Clement. Tres is a former employee of Burt and helped build the Boomerang 28 years ago.
The CAD data from Tres has now arrived. Unfortunately a little too late. This data would have saved Erwin several weeks of work.
Special features:
This model is, like the original, the only existing aircraft of this type.
Fertigung:
– Rümpfe, Cowlings, Tips, Seitenleitwerk in 3-D Druck, Formenbau und Composite-Bauweise
– Tragflächen und Höhenleitwerke in Styrodur, Kohlefaser, Abachi
Konstruktion: Erwin Schmelzer
Bau: Erwin Schmelzer, Gerhard Grambow
Verein: MFG Ramelsloh e.V.
Die Bauzeit betrug zweieinhalb Jahre aber mit einigen Unterbrechungen. Der Zeitaufwand ist schwer abzuschätzen, aber es waren jeweils circa 700 Stunden.
Zum Bau waren nur eine drei Seiten Ansicht und viele Fotos aus dem Internet vorhanden. Die drei Seiten Ansicht war allerdings sehr hochwertig und von dem heutigen Betreiber des Boomerang, Tres Clement erstellt. Tres ist ein früherer Mitarbeiter von Burt und hat den Boomerang vor 28 Jahren mit gebaut.
Mittlerweile sind die CAD Daten von Tres eingetroffen. Leider etwas zu spät. Diese Daten hätten Erwin einige Wochen an Arbeit erspart.
Besonderheiten:
Dieses Modell ist, wie auch das Original, das einzig existierende Flugzeug dieses Typs.

Only the insanity of loving gasoline could think that looks good No wonder there are so many stop all protesters
Outstanding! And he definitely knows how to tune those Saito twins. They can be a bit cranky to tune but when you get it right, they are a fantastic engine.
Wow, thats different. Its like when "Whacky racers" comes to life….
He did a great job recreating the Boomerang! As always, you did a great job filming it Horst!
Interesting design. From far away, it looks like it has two fuselages. It looks asymmetric. The wings are slender and slightly forward swept. I think this produces more laminar flow and therefore lower drag. In the hands of the pilot, it flies beautifully. It was a joy to watch.????
Это что за уродство? В чем преимущество такой уродливой схемы?
Beautiful model, even better pilot. Looked like you had some fairly strong winds to deal with that day? Also, I'm kind of curious of how turbulence would effect the structure of the wing, over time. Did it require special bracing to help keep stress fractures from developing?
Lurveleee!
