Carbon
Elemental Madness
I present:
Code-name Watermelon
Also known as the Carbon B-3, this is the craziest design yet. It utilizes a standard twin boom design, with a mixture of Peace Drone and sprinkled with green and blue tape to add some zest. The maiden should be by next week, the pictures show an incomplete design. There is still a top cover to add and I need to finish the motor mount and landing gear. It uses all carbon arrow shafts unlike previous, heavier designs. It is designed to lift a 5450mah 3 cell, GoPro or IR/zoom camera and FPV gear and to fly for around a half hour. The canard is mostly their for extra lifting surface and to bring the CG forward of the main wing. I did this for more payload capacity and also so I could include vertical stabs on the wings. I need it to track well without a rudder and verticle stabilizers need to be aft of the CG.I chose bright colors because I want it to be visible from the air when used for SAR. Also they make me happy
I will try to get the maiden in this week by my grandma isn't feeling so well and I may be spending the weekend with her in the hospital. We will see! Also winter is apon us and I have not had a good flying day for two weeks now.
