Maxa Pro CP Windy

1. Outer layers of our carbon spread tow laid at -45°;+45°;0° degree bias. There are also additional lengthwise gain of Spread Tow Carbon (Carboline).  There ara two layers of Carboline laid at -45°;+45° degree bias on the flaps;

2. Herex core of the composite sandwich;

3. Inner layers of our carbon spread tow laid at -45°;+45°;0° degree bias;

4. Spar flanges from high strength IMS65 carbon fiber, 15 mm wide;

5. Rohacell flap core;

6. The front wall of the aileron is made of balsa plywood covered with glass fabric. This design reduces the weight of the control surface, while its height together with Spread Tow outer layers results in unsurpassed torsional stiffness;

7. Strip of the hinge material;

8. The rear wall of the wing from balsa plywood and fiberglass.

Maxa Pro 3.5m and Maxa Pro 4m Light CP

1. Outer layers of our carbon spread tow laid at ±30 degree bias. Such layup results in high torsional stiffness and, at the same time, works in bending together with the spar.  Outer Spread Tow layers improve the wing durability;

2. Herex core of the composite sandwich;

3. Inner layers of  our carbon spread tow laid at ±30 degree bias;

4. Spar flanges from high strength IMS65 carbon fiber, 11.5 mm wide;

5. Rohacell flap core;

6. The front wall of the aileron is made of balsa plywood covered with glass fabric. This design reduces the weight of the control surface, while its height together with Spread Tow outer layers results in unsurpassed torsional stiffness;

7. Strip of the hinge material;

8. The rear wall of the wing from balsa plywood and fiberglass.

Advantages of the ultra-stiff Maxa fuselage:

- The fuselage is attached to the bottom of the wing with 4 screws to facilitate the assembly—you don’t need to turn the plane over, after you plug the wing servo connectors.

- The wing structure is tied together with special shape nut, which is glued through the whole thickness of the wing.  Such design better spreads shock loads of hard landings.

- The sharp nose stops the glider at the landing target.  The shape of the tip meets F3J requirements.

- The tilt junction the tail boom with nose, in addition to the elegant appearance, greatly reduces the stress concentration at this location;

- Maxa ships with the completely assembled pod with tow hook and ballast tube already installed.  The tail boom has the pushrod sleeves already installed and the vertical stabilizer glued on.  You only need to glue the pod and the boom together.

- The Adjustable Tow Hook allows for launch optimization for any weather or C.G. location in the recommended range;

- Fuselage servos are installed horizontally, which allows for easy access to the receiver and the battery (see more on the manual bookmark).

- The front part of the nose is radio transparent made out of kevlar and high modulus fiberglass. You can place an antenna of 2,4 GHz receiver inside the  nose (to the end of the canopy).

Tail boom

The Tail Boom is made from thin carbon Spread Tow laid at +45 degree (1) and -45 degree (2) bias.  Between the Spread Tow layers, there are 2 layers  of unidirectional high strength carbon fiber (3).  This design yields stronger, stiffer, and more thermal stable tail boom, which weighs only 41 gram without pushrods.

Canopy

Canopy is made of carbon composite. . It uses reliable mounting latch design proven in many Vladimir’s Model planes: Supra PRO, Supra Electric, Blaster 2 Electric, Sprite, Graphite 2 Electric.

By numerous requests, we made Maxa’s tail of classical X-shape design.

We managed to overcome inherent drawbacks of this design and the resulting aerodynamic gains became apparent.

The horizontal stabilizer is now located higher up, which increases the launch safety.

The new design together with Vladimir’s Model trademark D-box built-up tail structure reduce the weight and increased the stiffness of the whole control system.

Vertical stabilizer

The tall and stiff vertical stabilizer gives Maxa good yaw stability and control even at low flight speeds. The horizontal stabilizer doesn’t shadow the rudder, which improves its efficiency.

The light built-up rudder can be taken off to reduce the fuselage length for ease of transport, this requires removing only one screw at the bottom. The screw with precisely ground stem slides into the bearing, which contributes to the accuracy and the stiffness of the yaw control, which is crucial for high energy launches.  The composite tube serves as the rudder spar, which results in its extremely high torsional stiffness.

Horizontal stabilizer

Stabilizer Maxa - is an embodiment of the latest model aircraft technology. It was first applied technology Rohacell postforming. Because of this we were able to achieve incredible detail inlaid geometric accuracy of the airfoile. The use of whole-core enabled us based on D-box construction using ultra-thin lining of Spread Tow Carbon (Carboline).

The result is well balanced and light rotating horizontal stabilizer provides the required pitch stability. Its weight together with the joiner is 36 gram.

We have beefed up the horizontal stabilizer’s pivot, which resulted in substantial stiffness increase of the whole control system. The elevator pushrod is under tension, then you push the elevator up, which results in more precise elevator control.

Excellent control at low speed is achieved with the help of larger horizontal stabilizer area, which results in more accurate landings.

Our advanced CAD/CAM design and manufacturing yield unmatched accuracy of all the parts.
