Here is a design I have been working on for some time, A large flying wing that is able to carry the camera internally. The wing breaks down in two pieces, and including the fuselage there are no pieces longer than 40 inches. It uses an Axi 2820/10 and a cam folding prop driven by 2100/2p 3 cell packs. flying weight with a Fuji F50 is 5.5 pounds. Power consumption at 35 MPH is 70 watts. Some pictures from a flight can be seen in the AP forum.

On a side note, does anyone know of any jobs available for someone who wants to design small UAV's? I have 22 years experience designing RC aircraft and have spent the last 3+ years working for a UAV autopilot company.

this is a great looking design. I am very interested in this. by chance have you been working for MicroPilot? I have a MP2128 that I am currently looking to put in a new platform. I need something that is more durable that the platform that I am using. I have been looking for something of this style. Plenty of space in the fuse and looks pretty durable.
