First F3B-E competition in Muenchen!

Results are here.

Jitom is proud to inform that the E-Avatar is ready for the new F3B-E-class. Our prototype has a minimum-weight of 2014g which is close to the allowed minimum wing-loading with 35g/dm2. The layup of the wings is the same as used on the F3B-launch and not a special light version . The motor is an "inrunner" with a gearbox 4:1 and works with a 4s/1300 mAh. This allowes two launches with 400 Wmin.

Preliminary rules for electro F3B are ready.

For this category minimum flight weight for Avatar is 2103g. For this weight flight configuration for Avatar consist from 4S Li-Pol with cca 1300mAh.

Check new Avatar pictures on Avatar F3B product page and update settings template.

Congratulations for:

• 1. place - Stefan Sporer, Austria

Jitom is proud to present an elektro-fuselage for our AVATAR. The goal was not a "Hotliner" with a phantastic climbing rate. We wanted a model with nearly the same weight and thermal-performance as the glider-version with a comfortable climbing rate like an F5J-model. Fuselage has the same size like glider-version...

Introduction Details Settings Prices	Avatar electro basic properties
	Wing span:	3150 mm
	Wing area:	55,00 dm2
	Tailplane area:	5,1 dm2
	Weight:	from 2110 g

The model is manufactured by Jiri Tuma. Jiri created a special technology to make wings stiff and light enough for this thin airfoil. Also special is the space between fuselage and wing and V-tail as shown on the pictures . This will help to reduce interferences and drag.

We introduce on competition new model in our production - Avatar. Its complete new design of wings and V-tail. Technical data:

• Wingspan: 3150 mm
• Wingarea: 55 dm²
• Tailarea: 5,1 dm²
• Weight: 2100g
• Airfoil:Dirk Pflug

The model is manufactured by Jiri Tuma. Jiri created a special technology to make wings stiff and light enough for this thin airfoil. Also special is the space between fuselage and wing and V-tail as shown on the pictures . This will help to reduce interferences and drag.

The model is built in double-carbon with carbon V-tail. Fuselage same as EXTASY in carbon and nose-cone 2,4 Ghz ready (Kevlar-Glas). There are 5-ballast tubes (3 in the joiner and 2 in the wing) which allows 1800g only with use of brass! No expensive wolfram needed !

Gunther flew this model 3 weeks after maidenflight on the last contest of the season on the „Oktoberfestpokal“ in munich and won the senior award. If you are interested, please contact us.

Congratulations for:

• 2. place in teams on WCH - Stefan Sporer in team Austria
• 11. place on World Cup - Jan Stonavsky with Extasy

Performance analysis

We have calculated the performance of the Evolution V-Tail model using the XFoil program. We hope that this knowledge will allow better settings for your model and will contribute to improving the properties for a new model. We plan to compare the calculated results with the actual parameters of the model using a barometric altimeter and GPS logger as soon as possible. So far, however, the results appear to be remarkably accurate (for example minimum sink rate).

Results were calculated for a model weight from 2200 grams to 3400 grams with 400 grams resolution. It appears that for distance and speed task, more weight means a better outcome. The graphs also show the maximum glide ratio and maximum flight efficiency. For distance task it is good to move between the maximum of these variables. For Evolution model the trim speed is almost the same as the speed for maximum glide ratio. All calculations are for a model with control surfaces (v-tail, elevator, ailerons, flaps) in neutral position. Later we compute also optimum flaps angle for achieve maximum lift for start on winch and appropiate elevator correction.
