    Flight time is not important for this wing, as I only fly VLOS. Battery capacity is 2*2200mah. I think it should be good  for at least 40 min. I use two batteries to get the correct CG, not for long flight time.

    Camera: IXUS 220HS mounted in anti-vibration foam. 

    Motor: Turnigy Aerodrive sk3 1340 kv

    esc: Turnigy Plush 40 Amp

    Total weight: 1.15 KG

    VLOS is less than 1 km^2

    DIY X100?? Very nice work! What area & resolution can you map in a single flight?

    It is covered with thin carbonfiber-lookalike-vinyl. Camera is controlled by a chdk-script. I have no roll gimball in this plane, but in the future i will. I hvae done some tests with my bixlerdrone with roll stabilization.

    Hi Ole,

    Nice looking plane,

    Can I ask what you have covered it with and how are you triggering the camera, are you going to use a roll gimbal?
