Description

I'm designing and building a 3D printed flying wing. 650mm wing-span, designed to be run with 22xx motors. I'm planing something special and going to try packing a 4s 5000mah+ battery system inside this.

(Edit: Initially I was intending to use 18650's and design a removable slot to spread two of the 18650's into the wings. Quite a lot of school stuff has come up since starting this project - I'm shifting from any ambitious experimentation with batteries for the lols towards just getting this made to fit a 1000mah lipo first. Once it's up and running then I'll work on batteries in wings etc.)

If anyone's interested in progress, do let me know. If there's any features that you would perhaps like to see, please indicate as well. I am a poor student so donations are always welcome and even small amounts go a long way

Expected timeline:
(Edit : The timeline has gone to shit. I'll be resuming this project after 27 July. The stuff that I have managed to finish are under ticks ✓ )

June 5-7
First second and third design iterations (this is second design)
CFD ✓
Wing test print ✓
Flaperon design ✓
Motor housing design ✓

June 7-14
Internal wing support structures as well as cutouts for carbon support beams ✓
Housing for servos (need to finalise placement as well as movement)
Battery mount housing, battery circuit design
FPV camera housing + some solution for internal mounting

June 14-21
Settling wiring electronics + flight stability + mixing
Test flight
