Planning to build your own FPV49 v3? This video shows how I built my latest one.
The one I'm building in this video is made for speed and stability.
If you are a beginner build a lighter version using only one 2650mAh 3 cell battery or something.
CG approx 25 til 26cm from the front of the plane (before cutting camera bay)

You can buy all the electronic you need to build a plane like this from Hobbyking.com
If you do build one please let me know how it went :)

Trond, maiden my FPV3 last Friday and I got to say it's one of the best planes I've built! Super easy to control/stable and fast! Thanks mate.
I have never seen this before. Great video!
Thanks Mr. Kline, hopefully more people will try out your fantastic airfoil! The stability it gives is just awesome for FPV video :)
Thanks for the shout out! Glad that I have served as some inspiration. This is an awesome build!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your plans and video on building this spectacular plane!
I'm still a novice. Currently in the middle of building the FT Versa Wing. Glad to see you are on Flite Test!
FPV49 will probably be down the road... like next Summer =)
17:50 flies beautifully stable.
I've never seen more stable aerial video.

Excellent video of the construction steps. I can see several places to save a lot of weight using carbon fiber sheets instead of wood, and using the shrink Poly-Kote covering for regular balsa build RC planes instead of tape. Awesome footage...
Great Work . .. . thanks for guide . . . . May Nature bless you all
Very inspiring and lots of useful information in this video. Thank you.
Battery bay I made myself out of 4mm plywood. The camera bay was CNC cut by a colleague of mine. If you don't want to make them yourself you can always buy from teamblacksheep or similar.
really nicely put together, thanks for your work :)
Trond... This video should be an inspiration for those who wish to build their own FPV aircraft. You have done a terrific job of showing how to do it. ~ Dick
Excellent build video!! Thanks for posting
I wanted to build this plane since I saw this video, now I'm starting it thanks.
Great video. Working on a wing now, great tips.
Great job and thank you for taking the time to put the video together!
Off to get some depron.... My FPV40 always wanted a BIG brother :)
Thanks for sharing! This is a great design!
Love your work! My friend and I are building from your plans. Hi from Australia!
Wow, very detailed video. Thanks a lot. Nice looking and functioning wing you have there. : - )
Very helpful tips!! I've a lot of respect for your work! Thank you!
All right, you got me addicted now. I'm in for building one.
Interesting. I'll made one this winter !
Thanks! That means a lot, especially coming from a RC guru like yourself :)
Excellent video.
Thanks :D
thanks! yes ez has some very good solutions that work very well together. If i were to buy a new uhf system today it would be Ez UHF for instance. But for video I think I would go for the TBS receiver module in the fatsharks and something else than airwave (immersion) video transmitter.
craftsmanship went out the window with this guy lol
Mine is about the same with 2 batteries + GoPro. Sweet cloudsurfing! :)
Excelent Video !
You guys make life so much easier :-)
Excellent! Thanks for sharing!!!
as usual, a great vid!
Very happy to hear that :)
Very interesting, thank you!
You are great. I've cut four aircraft. They're flying all excellent. Thank you..
That plane flies extra stable. Almost no left right wobble
superb. thank you.
Not bad for your first project.
Thank you
Hi Fpv trond, i hope and wish that you will do a video on how your electronics are connected. Also,how to flash the turigy 9 channel radio. you make scratch build a lot of fun and inexpensive to do. But please do not stop here with your videos. Please share with us your great knowledge. I am trying to get into.Fpv as well, and thank you.
Nice!
Hi, I have set up the radio to give a little down elevon when increasing throttle :)
Thanks for the videos, I have mine ready for maiden since one month ago! Broken my tx an send to repair. Are you ok with the 5.8 vtx ? And please put a link for the Gopro 3 sunex lens, maybe one day I will need it, I didn't saw one for the new gp 3
😃 Excelente muy bien 😃 👍
On the leading edge. How about using a contour sander for shaping the leading edge like on giant scale planes? This would give a nice rounded uniform leading edge. I am in the process of building mine now!
Trond,
Great Flying Wing and videos. I'm going to build one. I must be missing something but I can't determine the line to draw for the TE. If the ailerons were to extend to the center line, can you tell me how far back from the leading edge to that intersection? In other words what is the chord at the center including the ailerons?
Great video, Thanks for sharing your plans. What distance can you get with the Fat shark FPV 5.8Ghz spiroNet Antenna set. I have just put the same FPV system on a 350QX2 quad copter. I can only get about 80m range right now. I'm thinking everything is just way to close together causing interference. Balancing the props and twisting the cables increased my distance from 40m to 80m. Flying wing may have to be the next project.
the one you found should be perfect :) I would use anything between 8-10mm.
V1 build and flown. awesome wing and had a great time flying. until i made the hole in the ground whit it.
V3 build in progress. i put the tape on before glueing. made it a lot easyer to do and looks better whit less effort.
could i use all electrics from the V1 on the V3 ? or do i need to upgrade motor prop and esc ?
On another wing I have, the ailerons are set to 5mm up in their default setting (reflex). Does the v.3 need something similar?
Thank you. I started gathering the parts to build this plane. The OS motor is out of my budget, so can you please suggest a hobby king equivalent?
THANKS
Ok, that make sense. Thanks for the quick reply. Did you have to add any thrust angle when you mounted the motor or is it 0 degrees.
Thanks again
Hi Trond. What size carbon strip are you using? Can't tell from video. I found ones in AU 0.5mx10mmx1000mm. My build is coming along just fine. Thanks again
NTM Prop Drive Series 35-42A 1250Kv would do just fine :)
There are also some turnigy motors that can be used. Just look for something that gives about 400 to 600W on a 3cell and has about 1000 to 1500Kv.
Hi Trond, I'm building a v3 and I'm wondering if you have any reflex added to the ailerons? Thanks, Mart
(ps I lived in Norway for a year - you have a spectacular country)
Hey great work! But why didnt you plan the battery tray and camera mount while doing these awesome sketches on sketchup? Wouldnt it be easier to be cut in first place, not after the glueing?
Greets, Phil
Hi, yes that will be fully possible if the motor is strong enough. How many watts does the motor give with that prop size? You will need something that gives around 450 to 600 watts or more.
Should be just fine then. If you are new to flying wings I suggest to make it as light as possible in the beginning, much easier to launch.
great video is there another motor thats less expensive but will work just as good
Thanks for the video, which you gain weight empty model (no electronics)?
Where did you get the wooden battery and camera bays?
Hey there, if you don't mind me asking where did you get your foam from? shops around my area don't usually carry that size, so I'd like to know, thanks.
Can you tell me whats you AUW on this thing?
Im building one myself now and my weight with only servos mounted is 670g.
Motor, esc, lipo, cameras, transmitters and so on will probably add 700g if not more..
My long departed model airplane friend was building hand launch gliders with this airfoil years ago...I have his plans
Nice video Fpv trond, may I ask what is the weight of your aircraft as well as , what and where did you buy the electronic from. And thank you for the great video of information.
Hi Brother :). Very nice video and a beautifull build, i would have used less and insted used some glass on it, but heey you are the man and this is your beautifull video. I would like to ask you why you didnt bout everything from ez? I have thomases and at some point i would love to have another system too. If until then the dragon hasnt come up with a tracker, then i think i would go for the ez. It should be a plus when you buy everything from the same Company, dont you think so?
nice :)
how much this weight? I making a project for research drones, do you ever try get more flight time of this airframe?
Hi, 5.8GHz works great, especially when you are flying with friends who has 2.4 radios :). I don't have link for sunex lens for GoPro 3. I did buy a sunex lens for GoPro 2 but that's another story. Are you sure you are not talking about the glass for the camera housing?
amazing videos thxs for sharing this !!!like like like!!!
Exellent video, just a question What was the total weight including electronics?
Do you have a hobby king equivalent for the motor?
Sir plz tell me if I use 2212/2200kv motor with 6045 propler n 2200mah battery then it will fly? Plz reply.
what kind of folding propeller are used in this plane?
where did you buy the stick mount from?
thankkkkkkkkkkkkkss, this is amazing video, but i have a question, what´s the model the folding propellers ? do you have information or webpage for buying this?
thank you so much.
I've got to draft one of these up and put it on my Phlatprinter. This is just an amazingly stable platform. Where exactly is the CG? Thanks for sharing this beautiful design!
Should be fine,is it 550W on a 3cell or 4cell? If it gives less on a 3 celll and if you are using a 3 cell it may be a little slow :)
Where do u get the fpv camera? The Sony camera not the gopro
Not a bad idea :)
Hi! I am from spain, I try to buy depron like yours on UK websites and they say they don't ship to spain. In Spain is really hard/expensive to find/buy. Anybody knows anywhere where depron is available worldwide as the one you use?? cheers!! BTW..where did you buy it?? thanks!
What is the drying time of glue uhu you use ?
Muito louco. Chic
where do you buy the pvc tape with color?? Nice build vid:D
I need that green line, @15:56 have wrong electrical readings, sure its ground loops @15:56. need to mod mine to avoid reading errors!
Thank you! Now I really want to build your design even though really wanted a rudder fixed wing. Those air foils confused me at first, but it definitely works well. Why are the ailerons so thick?
To match the thickness of the wing. An alternative would be to find 12mm thick balsa elevons or something like that.
hi can a 1000kv Brushless Motor with a prop 9x6 able to fly this model? I'm a beginner.
Thanks for sharing your plans and guiding us on how to build this cool plane. I am going to build this but my local hobby shop only has depron available in length 1219mm (48 inches). So my question is will it impact on plane's performance if it is short of 1 inch in length? Thank you for your help.
Nope the experienced performance would be more or less the same. I wish my local store had shorter depron sheets :) More practical with smaller plane :D
Thank you so much for your reply!!!!!
tx turnigy looks futuristic, how much is the tx used? Thnks.......
Hiii I am building mine now.Can you please put the drawing and measurements for proper winglets?
Great Video helps a lot, but i ve missed the center of gravity?
Greets and thanks from Germany MM
Hi watched your video on building the v49 wing and on the part for installing the electronics, It is a little unclear as how each electronic is connected together to each port. Like the current sensor, camera etc.
CMA, have put link in description :)
What kind of band did you use ?
Hey man could i make it a 2piece wing for better transportation?
Why don't you use the GoPro for recording AND flying?
Onde consigo comprar depron desse jeito Aki no Brazil não tem apesar nunca tem nada de qualidade né
Are there Pdfs available anywhere? Thanks.
what about a thrust angle?
what size foamboard are you using?
thank you
Allan
atmm89 6mm thick 1,25m x 0,8
Nice video :) Especially like 18:05 :p
Hi Trond is there a chance I could ask you something about er9x settings? If possible, NOT here at youtube; better at rcgroups or email/skype?
I'm stationed in China, getting out to youtube is not always easy ;)
Thanks,
Mark
