flying wing

This is my FliteTest Blunt Nose Versa Wing during the first week of flying and shaking it down. I had a perfect maiden flight day. It took off an flew absolutely perfectly with no trimming required whatsoever. The beginning of this video pokes fun at how my overconfidence and carelessness led...

I am looking to put all this togetehr but have some questions I hope I can get some help with. http://flitetest.com/articles/fpv49-build So I have the following: 35 -36 1400kv motor, HK-70A ESC, Turnigy UBEC -5A and some Ferrite Rings all from the list in the article I dont have the...

I thought I would put this video in here as a lesson to all of us to check (and then double check) the CG measurement when designing a new model. This is my 1360mm modified Versa Wing FPV platform and this was supposed to be the triumphant maiden flight. At the time it was carrying a FatShark...

I am building the Kraken, I have sized up the FT Versa Wing to 180% instead of a hundred. I need tips for assembly and (if possible) someone to tell me how many foam boards to buy. Tips that I need: All the holes like for the servos need to be changed to, what? The foam spar? Does it need...

Flying wing as a beginner plane? (Now a build log) Hi there! I was wondering if a flying wing, such as the Versa Wing, would make a suitable first plane for a fixed wing newbie? The reason I ask is because it is easier and cheaper for me to get hold of 50mm sheets of EPS than it is to get...

This will be my first flying wing. I plan on buying a turnigy 9x transmitter but I am still not sure will plane to buy. The tuff wing is more expensive, but is it a more versatile airplane? Please help me.

Duckerons? Decelerons? Split Elevons? Not sure what they're called. This is a 48" EPS hot wire cutout thoroughly taped and sparred. I was able to fit two DOW board/XPS elevons on each wing and used 2 low resolution (200 steps, ugh) turnigy v-tail mixers and two mixes in my Aurora 9 (a DX6 would...

I suspect that you can take your new flying wing design and build it without a motor. To get the center of gravity right and to get some penetration you could keep the larger battery needed for the motor, and even the speed control in order to power your reciever and servos. Perhaps a swappable...

Hello RC addicts! I was looking around and trying to find any flying wings that I could build. I have a bunch of EPP and carbon fiber, so thats not the problem- however it would be nice to have a "beginner-ish" flying wing that i could chuck around. Any help would be much appreciated, Happy...

Hi guys if you love FPV as much as I do check this one out and make sure you post your great videos too.

First off I'm glad to be back! Just put an addition on my house which killed all extra curricular activities for a good 8 months! To explain my goals for 3.0 I need to explain the successes and failures or 2.0 here is a pick of the retired 2.0 My goal with 2.0 was to build a fast wing with...

Hey guys, A few days ago, I saw Chrizz's post about a flying wing and thought that it would be a fast and fun build, so I pulled out the paper, pencil, ruler, and calculator and scaled the plans down by hand. It took about four to five hours of easy building. My brother and I are still...

My old Hobbyzone Champ has had a hard life, it was my trainer so it got bashed up good. I've changed it around a few times. First I changed it to a 1930's racer - the ChampRacer: Then I made it into the ChampUAV: Now it's the ChampWing: The hardest part of the project was getting the...
