About Me:
I come from the hobby FPV community, but i'm serious about development of robotic fixed wing platforms particularly, and specialize in high efficiency long duration airframe design.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I'm interested in development of UAV fixed wing platforms for aerial mapping, and other robotic applications

"Thanks, i'll check out the link. Which one would support tilt rotors? "
"I only know vaguely of the pixhawk option, and of the open-aero firmware for the KK2 board. I'd appreciate a link to more info on the code you are referring to, as i'll need something soon. I'm designing the airframe right now, and testing…"
"That depends on the airfoil somewhat, as different airfoils will fly most efficiently at slightly different angles of attack. 3 degrees sounds like a good starting point, and with such a small model, it'll surely work fine. I'm designing for…"
"another factor to some angle of the motors is to achieve hover with the wing at a slight positive angle. that way, as was mentioned before,the rotors are relatively neutral to the airflow in forward flight, the lift motors will also aid speed during…"
"not sure about your E-calc, or how it interprets the data. I get flight time Data from real world testing. actually flying the aircraft until the battery is low, and it is time for re-charge.
The flight time was less with lipo batteries, but with…"

"Please let me know when you get some of those high energy density batteries in. i would like to do a a review on them. i have an ideal platform for their use. i have already flown almost 3 hrs with regular lipos. and while transmitting 2 video…"
"they are no longer available here http://www.rangevideo.com/rv-endurance-high-capacity-batteries/315-..."
"Where are they actually available? looked for them, and could not find anywhere for sale.
I am looking for a fairly permanent solution that i can duplicate. thanks! "

"anybody making up packs out of ncr18650b panasonic cells? genuine ones? looking for about 75 ah capacity at 11.1 volts myself for a long endurance fixed wing."
"looks great, and you are close to production, or at least could be. good job!"
"very interesting, makes sense. i had always thought that a wing designed with little reflex, would also generate less lift, or be less efficient, such as those used on flying wings. i would be interested to know which airfoil you are using. …"
"looks good, i had seen this, just didn't realize it was the same plane. the moments look a little short, and the tail area looks small, but if it flies well, who's to argue with success? looks good. you should publish data or sell plans or…"
It's not released yet, but coming soon. just curious to know what others think about this new plane.here's the youtube video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vfb-ANWUFQ
"looks like the guys at readymaderc just unveiled a similar plane to yours. 2 meter span only, but wingtips and tail are similar. fixed gear, foam. looks good. i'm sure the performance is not as good as yours could be, but it will be out there in a…"
"it did look like a handful.
the height of the lateral area aft of c.g. is one of the larger factors determining spiral stability, along with moment, and total area. there are also other factors such as planform, particularly the leading edge, and…"

"How's it going Justin? you might remember me from the conversation we had about my gemini.
