Hi guys,
I just finished my most recent version of the FT Arrow and wanted to know what you guys think. The last one I made had an expanded electronics pod but it eventually failed structurally due to the lack of spar continuity through the middle. This one addresses that problem by including a plywood spar in the centre section extending about 3/4 of the way to the servos along the bottom. I made the elevons from balsa in the interest of them being a little more rigid, and also added an extension into the prop wash which provides a thrust vectoring effect.
Here is a little video I made to show the modifications: https://youtu.be/Zqul1_Aop4o
Comments and questions are welcome!
