I don't really like to talk a lot about what i make, but i can answer all your questions that you might ask in your comments :) here are the photos, self explanatory :) Fly, autonomous Actuators / output devices: Servos brushless motors Control method: semi-controlled/auto CPU…

Tell us about the autopilot Tell us about the autopilot system. What will you be using and what will it do?

??? I have been building airplanes for 15 years now, realliy like yout proyect… but: why do you make the wings that way, they are not strong for a fly, they need reinforcements, where are thre servo pictures? i cant see the controll horns… does it ballance? where does the bat…

I will be very, very I will be very, very surprised if you make this thing fly. And if you do so, I will personally come down with a cold beer if you make it land in one piece :slight_smile: But hey, it’s all about having fun and learning! Go for it!

I don’t really care about I don’t really care about dihedral nor about having a high wing :slight_smile: since the autopilot on board will do all the corrections ;) as for the control surfaces, they have not yet been cut on the wings :slight_smile: im waiting for the servos and…
