So I have been working on this for a while now. It is designed for aerial photography/surveying. Carbon fiber flying wing, quite durable. Had an excellent vendor work on this (manufacturing here is much cheaper in India). Here are some specs:
Wingspan - 1.4 m
All up weight - 1.2 kg
Payload - 300 grams
Endurance - 40~50 mins ( Plans to experiment with li-on batteries to increase the endurance)
Comments
Hand launch works pretty good. Using this as of now -https://www.amazon.in/Canon-125-HS-Digital-Optical/dp/B007RAE674. Any suggestions for better cameras are welcome.
PS: This is an alpha prototype.
Hi, that's great. What camera do you intend to use? 1.2kg all up seems light for a survey setup.
How do you launch it?
Looks good.
