100KM

Techwing low and slow

To show just how stable the techwing is while flying slow, I made the following video.

Specs:

WS: 43 inches

all up weight:37 oz

motor: 370 watt 1100 kv

prop: 9*7

battery: 5000 mah 3s lipo

battery weight:14.8 oz

flight duration: 20  minutes

ma used: 1007

As you can see the techwing handles extremely well while flying slow, even with enough battery for a 1.4 hour flight. I am making a limited amount of techwing RTF alfa aircraft available to interested parties. I am putting 6 up for sale on my store at hobbyuav for $350 each. it includes a fully assemble techwing airframe with motor,ESC and servos fully installed. I hope to have the project ready for kickstarter after the first of the year.

Thank you for your support.

  • Nice chase video, and this looks like a great choice for a fixed-wing UAV for many applications!

  • @Wayne"You should have no problem hauling around a cannon s100 for 45 minutes."

    Have you actually done a test flight to back this up? Because figuring numbers on paper is not always correct.

    Here is the chase video. Enjoy!

  • How much was it's lowest speed?

  • How about video from the chase quad?

    Yep that was FPV. I should see if i can get the video from him.

    Is the chase pilot flying FPV?  

    That's the only way I know of following so well.

    Wow I admire the mosquito pilot's skills following perfectly!

    @Angreas,

     sub $100 for the basic kit is the goal.

    @Martin,

    Here is the payload area as flown. The battery is about 15 oz and should give about 1.4 hours of flight.20141208_222558.jpg?w=900&width=300

    @Angreas,

     probably molded EPO, I am working on finishing the design with removable wings and a few more accouterments  like camera, autopilot, telemetry and video tx mounts. It will be dual purposed for FPV and/or photogrammetry. You should have no problem hauling around a cannon s100 for 45 minutes.

    @Morli,

     I was thought it was a mosquito. Turned out to be a quad.
