Sling TSi on the ROTISSERIE [Sling TSi Build Video #12]

#slingaircraft #slingtsi

DATE: March 16, 2024. The placement of the fuselage on the rotisserie may not be a choice for everyone. I appreciate others thoughts and comments. However, if this aircraft assembly is not in your presence and you have not personally performed a thorough discovery and inspection of the actual components for its specific structural integrity, remarking would only be speculative.

Structural stability refers to the ability of a structure to maintain its equilibrium and resist external forces or loads without experiencing excessive deformation or failure.

Structural rigidity refers to structures that are formed by collections of objects that are themselves rigid bodies.

A structure is rigid if it cannot flex; that is, if there is no continuous motion of the structure that preserves the shape of its rigid components and the pattern of their connections.

Understanding the previous, and thoroughly examining the fuselage in its current build condition, it is my personal conclusion that the assembly is more than adequately structurally stable to be independently supported at the firewall and the tail-cone and installed on the rotisserie.  The integration of each individual rigid component through it patterns of secure (riveted) connections make this option viable.

The Sling TSi Kit is the airplane Sling fans have been waiting for. All of the style, economy and practical utility of the Sling 4, but with more SPEED! Harnessing the power of the Rotax 915iS or the all new Rotax 916iS turbo-charged, fuel-injected and FADEC engine, the Sling TSi maintains the quiet, comfortable and smooth ride with an extra dose of horsepower.

The Sling TSi features an all-new high speed wing design: optimized for the power and weight of the aircraft. The leading edge of the wing is flush-riveted for low drag. The forward fuselage and empennage are also flush-riveted. The landing gear is airfoiled, low-drag wheel pants incorporated and there is a new cowling design.

The interior, seating, ventilation and heating are improved for passenger comfort and luxury.

Although the Sling TSi shares a similar appearance and the distinctive “Sling attitude” with the Sling 4, it only shares about 20% parts in common. It is a completely new aircraft, with different design goals than the Sling 4. The main result of these changes is SPEED.
