Default RE: Please recommend a plane

I'm currently a Sophomore Aerospace Engineer at Virginia Tech, working on 3 small-scale UAV design teams. I know exactly what 2lbs and 100mph can do. None of them have any major CF in them, and I've never seen CF shield 2.4GHz signal. I've been involved with 6 small-scale UAV design teams. You can't imagine the kind of trouble people can get into with the tiniest of leeways if you're not a trouble-maker.

Please, under no circumstances should anyone help this guy. If for no other reason than this: As stated before, he's not interested in RC. The FAA isn't always completely fond of us anyway (especially with these huge planes constantly encroaching on the 55lb limit). Doing something like this will do nothing but piss the FAA off more. People like him can end r/c for the people that actually love this hobby. If his company is that classified, then they should also have the resources to attain the information he's asking us.
