SLOW flying wing
#28

Continuing with the Elipstik 700 build. Hardest thing to engineer was the battery box located below the wing. The plane lands on the box, so I spent a lot of time coming up with the best size and shape. Then I had to figure out how to position the velcro so the battery is secure during flight, but could still be removed. The box is made with 1/16 in aircraft ply faced inside with 1/8in balsa. Control surfaces are covered with laminating film. The box has tabs that will be inserted into the balsa planked "floor" at a final balance position.
