New (tiny) wing! |
Introduction
I decided to try something much smaller in the Wing world. The Z84 is a smaller version of the C1 and FX-61 and I am hoping it flys well as I want to take it backpacking! For flight management/control I'll be starting with an Omnibus F3Pro flight controller to keep it light and simple.
Here then is a collection of my build notes and eventually a flight review of this plane.
