A 215 gram printed twin-motor flying wing

When this thing is up and flying, it covers a huge range for its size. The maker has built a 600 mm twin-motor flying wing that can float along near its 21 km/h stall speed and then be pushed to around 110 km/h for fast runs close to the ground. All of that comes in at roughly 215 grams, which is a remarkably light airframe for a twin. In my view that slow-to-fast spread is the most interesting thing about the design, since few wings this small claim both ends.



The construction approach stands out. The airframe is printed in LW-PLA or PETG, and assembly relies on M3 nylon screws plus clip-on brackets along the leading edge. Both the wings and the motor mounts come off, so a damaged panel or a swapped motor mount does not mean rebuilding the whole plane. The battery sits under a magnetic hatch held with a Velcro strap, which looks like a quick field swap done neatly.



The electronics list is tidy: twin 1003 14800KV motors on a 20A Flywoo ESC and an F4 Mini flight controller running INAV, with two 4.3-gram servos driving the elevons. Power comes from 750 mAh or 1000 mAh 2S LiPo packs.



One trade-off worth noting is endurance: flights run 5 to 10 minutes depending on the pack. Testing so far has happened over grass fields, which seems a sensible surface for a light printed wing. I would love to hear how the airframe holds up long term, since nothing has been said about durability beyond those field sessions.

Curious about the wing attachment. With the wings being removable and held by M3 nylon screws plus those clip-on leading-edge brackets, how rigid does the joint feel at 110 km/h? I keep wondering whether the clip-on section takes the load at the nose or if the screws carry everything along the span.

The removable motor mounts strike me as the smartest choice here. On a twin, an motor mount is exactly the part you might want to swap after a hard arrival, and being able to replace just that piece instead of a printed fuselage saves both filament and time. The trade-off is that any removable joint adds a bit of weight and a possible flex point, but at 215 grams total there clearly was not much mass to spare anyway.

A concrete variation: try running the 1000 mAh 2S pack exclusively and log whether the extra capacity hurts the slow handling around that 21 km/h stall speed. If the wing still floats happily, flight times could sit at the top of the 5 to 10 minute range more often, and the magnetic hatch plus Velcro strap suggests swapping packs is already quick enough to test back to back in one session.

On the wing joint rigidity: the maker has not said how the connection behaves at speed, so I cannot answer that part. What is known is the hardware itself, M3 nylon screws together with clip-on leading-edge brackets, and that both wings and motor mounts are removable. Whether the clips or the screws take the flight loads has not been stated anywhere.
