Looking to build one like this where can I start?

Very impressive! Well done! Happy flying!

Ukraine has a very similar looking long range drone for one way trips called Lyutyi ( Fierce )... 1000km range, it must be gas powered and probably twice as big. It uses computer vision right at the end to decide precisely where to "land."

The triangle in the back helps tremendously for the balance and leverage of lift in comparison to the first. Great job.

Hi man, I love your videos! They finally inspired me to pick up a project of my own and see how far I can get!

try with T-motor or Graupner propellers, they are a bit more expensive than gemfans but from my experience they are more efficient. EDIT: T-motors are named Eolo.

Hey man do you have a CAD file or PDF to show the size of each component? Wings etc

Can we put 2 extra carbon pipes on top of this and add 4 engines supported at right angles and make a quadplane?

Anything worth doing is worth OVERDOING!!

Can I use other receiver like fs-IA6B?

What drone are you using to capture this great aerial footage? Another one with gimbal?

Would using a Volantex Phoenix 2400mm as a base be a good if I want to achieve long range fpv?

Terrific video, thank you for sharing. What’s the all up weight? What do you think its max weight capacity is? (I.e.. how much weight can it carry).

Nice. Just observing... For a free flight model airplane, this design and most of the others you showed look very short-coupled longitudinally. That is, the tail boom looks short. This may mean the stabilization needs to work hard for pitch stability. The drone footage seems to confirm this (though of course there's no way to know wind conditions in those). Same for small dihedral and roll stability. A good free flight design with longer coupling and dihedral does an amazing job of flying steadily through weather on its own.

Great video! Thanks for the links also. I wish you focus on the electrics in one of your "how to" videos

Very efficient and simple, 😮👍

TB2 design

It's autonomous?! Wow! Someone actually used the correct definition of the word drone besides me for once.

Hi there. Your material on RUclips is all excellent, thanks so much. Of all the builds you have posted, which would you say is the easiest for a newbie to attempt? Also, what controller do you use?

Are the aluminum wing spars glued into the wings or fuselage?

Nice job!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

tell me which module you use for blinking LEDs???

*NOTE* Apologies for the bad quality audio from 0:08-2:52, this is due to a nasty copyright claim struck the video 12h after publishing the video, (the same one, used in the Silver Shadow Build Video, without copyright there) I decided to filter/mute the music out of the video and hope you understand!

I'll take it one step further... you're such an inspiration I am going to build the airframe even though I have zero clue how to do the electronics, HAVE any of the electronics [including a radio] or know how to fly an RC! [I'm not foolin!]

What's your opinion on Fuel cells other than the obvious high cost?

great stuff man! have you considered implementing 3d printing into your builds? at least for the fuselage you could improve efficiency, make it easier to install your components and once the design is done you can just reprint broken parts essentially effortlessly over night.

The inverted ‘V’ tail also eliminates the problem of adverse roll.

that's so fucking cool dude

Thanks, I’ve been hoping you would make a video like this. It’s a lot to learn if you’re starting from scratch.

Just a quick question outside the box: Can that flightcontroller be flashed to ArduRover?

what kind of flashing module is on the back? thx;)

This is a very cool video. I've also been into foam planes for a long time. But now I live in a country where foam is a very expensive material. It’s cheaper for me to buy a ready-made plane from Aliexpress. I think that by covering the plane with tape you gained a lot of weight. 1. What is the weight of the aircraft without batteries. 2. How many batteries fit inside. 3. What is the load on the wing. 4. What is the cruise speed? 5. How far did you manage to fly on the battery (in other words, how many kilometers can the plane stay in the air on one battery). Thank you very much. The plane turned out to be very beautiful and flying. Pavel

Thanks for sharing your good work. Where do you get the silver tape?

With each iteration, I see your planes are getting better along with your building technique

Cool build! I always wonder how much loading can the glued mid section take. Yeah it's UAV so no aerobatics but still what's the upper limit. Will you try some loops? 😅 Good you trust it anyway! 2kg AUW with 25.5 dm² seems like it needs some good toss for launch. Let's wait for the next flight video 👏👍

As an avid RC flyer/modeller, just wondering, how about large wing span with wide wing cord, filled with helium also covered with solar panels, the idea of maximum flight time,back in the day built a Ben Buckel this thing was so efficient it was difficult to get it down

Really cool idea with V-tail

I like how you take time to be through. Thank you for this build.

Super🎉🎉

Thank you for this super interesting sharing for this beautifull plane 😛the construction techniques used here are great: solid, cheap 🤑, materials easy to find 🤓. Personally I have no problems with the construction but I have more difficulty with the configuration of INAV 🤯If in your next video you could detail really very very precisely step by step the configuration for the poor NOOB that I am (and boomer at that!! 56 years old 😬) I will be extremely grateful to you 🤩. a big hello from France 😜

Amazing stuff this reminds me when i attempted to make a drone in highschool. I used similar materials but it just crashed. Where did you learn to design and build aircraft like this?

you are such an inspiration!

awesome man

Great work

He’s back 😮

Have you experimented with fiberglass?

Have you thought about 3D Printing your design

Awesome

where are you getting xps foam in US I cant seem to find it

Once again, you've created another amazing looking plane! Really well done! I may have to build this plane! Thanks for sharing your builds!
