Delta Wing

Posted by Ritchie on July 29, 2010 at 4:59pm

I have a delta wing and dont care about crashing it. Only having ailerons means it doesnt exactly function normally so I curious. I am wondering if I can balloon launch it then at altitude (2,000ft) release for a glide.

Can a delta wing be used with the Ardupilot (normal or mega)?

    Yes, ArduPilot (and Mega) both work great with delta wings. (Doug came in second in the Sparkfun competition with a Skyfun, which is a delta). Just select "Elevon Mixing" in the config file.
