Hi,

I hope you started all well into the new year. After the holidays I decided to try to build an RC plane. I manged to condense many hours of video material into 10 minutes of video in the past four days. It not optimal yet, but a nice insight of a pre-release state for you. I hope you enjoy.. the final version with few changes will be released tomorrow.

Hi, Nice try ;) So far video is pretty good. Suggestion on the actual flying... it appears the plane's CG is way off, hence the uncontrollable flight. Un-powered glide tests will help you determine if you have it right (with a lot less disintegration). Unfortunately flying wing designs are the hardest to get the CG balance right. Think how a kite flies with and without a tail. You essentially have a tail-less kite right now (gravity being the string).

The CG was probably one of many problems the plane had even though I roughly tried to balance it. After the last impacts, the nose is completely broken. After that fail, I thought I'd rather build a classical design and also use some wooden structural parts. That ordinary styrofoam seems to be too brittle.. I'll try something else next time. Are you doing RC stuff?
