Looking for a flying wing

Posted by Breaksbassbleeps on February 6, 2010 at 2:25pm
Hi all.

I'm trying to find plans for a very basic flying wing design. Simply put I'm looking to build a non swept wing UAV out of balsa. The kind which would look like a rectangle from above. Can anyone help?
Thanks all :)

    Have a look at the Aviona plans at the bottom of this page, http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/member.php?u=132180.

    That is a bad design for a flying wing as it wont be stable.

    Suggest you use a slope RC foamie..they are good as indestructive

    The BEE or Queen BEE might be suitable

    I was wondering if anyone could advise on what size (Kv & diameter) motor and esc I should install.. I've already got some 1300Mah 7.4V Lipos which I'd like to use too if possible.
    Any advice appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Here is one that's completely scratchbuilt, and just about what you're describing. Its the KFm "plank" called the Nifty.
