Yet another twin boom

Posted by Andy Joyce on May 13, 2010 at 12:10pm

Inspired by others I have constructed a 4 foot wingspan design for my first drone.

Design turned out quite heavy and the short nose is pushing the cofg well back so will need to add some mass up front.

No, found the carbon spars in my local hobby shop. 12x6mm so was able to match up with the 6mm Depron I used for the tail. which is made up from a 3mm skin top and bottom with a 6mm core with cuts outs.

Servo wires run in each boom

Just started a new fuselage which is several inches longer.

Looks good. Maybe once you get all the electronics in, the Cg will move forward? What is the weight?

Are those helicopter booms?
