Battery voltage and current monitoring for additional safety.Reliable failsafe behavior in the event of video/radio signal lost.Autonomous flight mode, like "cruise" and "RTH".Autolaunch feature, for no-brain takeoff and no need of additional tools like catapults or bungees (or a buddy that launches the plane for us).I don't aim to do autonomous waypoint missions (nevertheless the hardware would be ok), what i want is: The plane must have a reliable flight controller (not only a gyro stabilization).The plane must being able to carry an HD action cam (foxeer legend, runcam 2, something light, with a low profile).
The plane must have an FPV system, with an OSD device that's easy to set up.(well, purchase from china, without the transmitter-receiver). The plane must "fly well" while being reasonably cheap, around 100€, the less the better.No custom, hotwired wing profile, no strange motor configuration and so on. This project started when i decided to put aside for a while other random ideas about rc planes, to dedicate some effort to design and build a model with some specs in mind. What can you create merging one of the most appreciated flying wing frame, a proper electronic setup and a well set autopilot software? You'll have a nice and funny "toy" that can amuse different pilots with different skills.
