Hello everyone,
so i have been looking at testing the waters with an Uav and I have always liked the Predator airframe.
i have found this on the net it seems slightly better.

also can anybody shed light on a suitable airframe to do something like WASP (the war flying drone) ?

Ducted fans are really inefficient.
Go prop, and use the biggest prop possible (lowest rpms.
The hobbyking global hawk is a foamy. It is a disposable experiment, but not as reliable as a builtup plane.
Danny, if this is your first foray into this field, I suggest to stick to proven airframes.
Myself, I'm using a ST Models Discovery, and it flies very well, with minimal changes to the the standard code.
I only changed the speed settings, and a little bit of roll settings.
Look at this, it was done using the Discovery, not by me though :-(
