FPV40 - Design and Maiden Flight
My original design, the FPV40, a medium sized FPV plane that can carry a GoPro. PDF's available!
PDF's!: /
My inspiration for this rc plane was to make a medium sized FPV plane out of a single sheet of 20" x 30" foam board. It has 440 square inches of wing area, so it should be great for some basic FPV flying!

It has a 40 inch wingspan (tip to tip), 13 inch root chord, 8 inch tip chord (including 2 inches of elevon), and 14 inches of sweep. The KFM2 airfoil is at 50% wing chord and is made of 1/2 inch wall insulation foam board (pink foam).
Center of Gravity: 8.25 inches back from the front
Program expos on your transmitter! Ailerons at 30% and elevator at 40%
Weight, without the battery: 450 grams (with the motor and ESC)
Motor: RCHotDeals 2212-13 1000 kV ~ 50 gram motor
