Box plank build based on the Australian CORVO drone at about 1/4 scale.
Wingspan about 700mm. Chord 145mm plus 30mm elevons. Fuselage about 75mm x 55mm. Motor and ESC are shown clearly in the video. 6x4" prop. Airfoil I used was roughly Clark Y but a reflexed flying wing airfoil would be better. Flight battery also shown in the video but extra weight was required to balance CG at 20%.
To improve performance I would make the fuselage longer so the tail fin is further behind the CG and motor and battery further forward for easier CG balance.
30% Scale dimension of the original Corvo newtonairlines.blogspot.com/2025/04/cardboard-plank-30-corvo.html
