the heptavian: it was built to replace my 75% heptad. purpose of the plane is for fpv av and uav testing. id like to consider it a prototype and a very moduler design. its my first design using minimal plans. initial plan idea was an easy build box fuse made using dollar tree foam. length of the main section is 30". the wing is also of my design and is a kfm3 60".
inspired by powers heptad
