Hello everyone. It's been a month or more since my last post. Rather than modifying an off the shelf airframe for my dissertation aerial photography work, I decided to scratch build an airframe. RP Flight Systems was kind enough to let me visit their facilities and this flying wing is based upon their commercial design.http://www.onr.com/user/jklier/wing.jpgThe wingspan is approximately 52 inches.Now for some questions. I am preparing to shop for the electronics (transmitter, receiver, motor, etc...) any advice on what to look for and what to avoid?Also, the design I based this on did not have any type of rudder control. I was thinking about trying to implement that in my design. I know the B2 uses a drag type rudder on the horizontal axis that opens sort of like a clam shell. That seems a bit to complicated for my skills. I was thinking about doing a drag rudder on the vertical wingtip stabilizers. Any thoughts on that?Thanks!
