YOU NEED TO BUILD THIS FLYING WING:
This project is a Great Flyer, Quick Build and only 2 sheet!
This Project was inspired by the '20 Flite Test Forum Challenge (FTFC20). Since I have seen the model on Fidder's green, I thought the Burgess-Dunne Flying wing from 1914 is a perfect candidate for DTFB.
As I grew up in New England it 40+ years later discovering some of aeronautics origins were so near where I grew up was exciting to learn the DBF was the first marine based flight in the US, out of Marblehead, Massachusetts. Also if you didn't know this was Canada's first Airforce plane. (Livery ideas abound here.)
This Build is either a C-pack or B-pack:
Build Notes:
VERY IMPORTANT: Iron the rear of the wing to a taper up. and install the panels in the correct order from 1 in the center to 3 at the wings. This Twist and washout are important aerodynamic features for smooth stable and fun flying.
For more build notes see the Build-log here.
Parts:
C-Pack 2218/09 emax Motor
30A Esc
8x4.5 slow fly prop - pusher config
1500 - 2200 mAh
2 - 9g Motors
1x - 6g receiver
Watch it Fly (Maiden Flight):
