It's been a while since i posted any build log. Recently i'm working om flying wings, specially long range or say endurance. I've designed this wing and attaching PDF link here. I'll post the build link soon. PDF Link- https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Y5pVh87xwYbB4X31XF8LS49x-hQn4lGk Enjoy! Title: Re: X-9 Thunder Power Flying wing PDF plan Post by: Antriksh on August 16, 2018, 11:12:55 AM Started with cutting 2" thick thermocol sheet to size
Title: Re: X-9 Thunder Power Flying wing PDF plan Post by: Antriksh on August 16, 2018, 11:16:58 AM Used hot wire to give aerofoil shape and then laminated them with 80 micron sheet.
This technique give super strength to it and it is quite resistance to twist and banding. Title: Re: X-9 Thunder Power Flying wing PDF plan Post by: Antriksh on August 16, 2018, 11:21:24 AM Now i installed 128mm aluminium and 4mm cf rods to provide strength and iut is capable to take much payload.
Because of it's huge size i need to keep it detachable so i designed a female section od these robs in solid works and then printed them on 3d printer. I'll share .stl file. Title: Re: X-9 Thunder Power Flying wing PDF plan Post by: Antriksh on August 16, 2018, 11:26:10 AM Added fins and completed the nose section. It is 11" wide so plenty of space for big batteries and cameras and of course the Pixhawk. It is really huge and very light weight. I'm expecting it be around 3.5Kg with 21Ah 6S battery. And having flight time at least 2hrs.
