Fuselage

The fuselage was designed to hold the payload, accomodate the electronics and to provide a platform for mounting the wing, undercarriage and the tailboom. The electronics compartment in the front holds the Pixhawk Autopilot, battery, speed controller and RX receiver. The design of the fuselage frames allows wires to go between the front compartment and the back compartment within the tailboom, avoiding contact with the payload release system. This creates more flexibility in placement of components and therefore facilitates the addition of extra components in the future.
