Still perplex, I'll try and formulate the question.... Ok your all students trying (and achieving) to constuct a RC aircraft. The design is completely original and uses off the shelf components. The design is (according to the link) to achieve flight. To take off, complete a circuit and land. If that is the extent of the requirements, why settle on the design choosen Wouldn't another, less ambious? type be more sutiable for competition? We have all see and are fimiliar with modern aircraft design, I am failing to understand the direction you've chosen?? please help? There are guys in my club who design/build/fly their own aircraft and are out there doing 3D ..... What am I missing??
