FPV49 flying wing for aerial mapping?

Hi all,

I'm looking for platform to image fields of size 50-100 hectares, using a Canon S series camera which weighs 200g.

The platform needs to be robust to crashes, easy to construct (scratch build or a kit), and stable enough in wind for photogrammetry.

I'm leaning to using these plans at: http://flitetest.com/articles/fpv49-build 

They are thorough and clear, the foam construction is good for crashes, and it is cheap.

I'd really like to know your opinion on whether this seems suitable, and any other airframes which could fill the criteria.

I'm also considering a mini talon
