The budget we have to start with is of £746.
With this we have to build at least one plane… and I think it would be a good idea to actually build two!
I think we should build a prototype before we start building the one that will fly on the actual competition day.

Power

First we should buy two engines + controllers from the BMFA.

• Eflight 40amp speed controller £32.19 (rrp £72.00)
• Eflight Power 10 motor £22.07 (rrp £49.00)
• total: £54.28  (+ shipping?)
• Order to be sent to <admin [at] bmfa.org> addressed to Julie Cole.

• Props: 9×6 ??

Batteries

• 2x 2500 3S Lipo

Building materials

Foam

I’ll look at good deals to by some EPP foam blocks. still needing to math out the volume and quality needed.

Balsa

Glue

• Epoxy (slow + fast)
• uhu foam glue

Carbon
