The FPV Stick Project

 This is my FPV Stick. I am currently waiting till my birthday in May to get a new 900mhz 500mw fpv system, for short range FPV in the neighborhood. It has a 30 inch wing and the weight is currently unknown.

 

 

 The length is 30 inches. 

The horizontal stab is 9 inches.

 The vertical stab is 5 inches.

I have sanded down the leading edge for minimal drag, I also did the same to the vertical stab and horizontal stab.

It will be powered by a Turnigy 2204 -14T with a 6 inch prop.

 

 The control surfaces are operated by three 9 gram servos. I am also waiting on a spectrum full range receiver and sat antenna

 

It is flown by an 800 mah 3 cell battery I taped nuts to the front for ballast due to lack of FPV equipment.

 

 The wing span is 30 inches (the ruler looks bent due to the camera lens).

Nice little plane you got there. A couple of things to note. With 900mhz 500mw is SUPER overkill for short range fpv. Also a 500mw transmitter is going to be fairly heavy and I don't know if that plane will be able to lift it. Other than that, great plane!

Do you have any detailed dimensions or drawing on the airframe? Need stuff like wing dimensions, CG location, wing to tail distance et cetera.
