I like flying wings so I will be watching your progress.
I plan on doing one with an EDF.

I was thinking about an Single 70mm EDFb too. But will most likely do a mid-prop setup.
I've been using KFm4 airfoils with CR on the leading edges and across the center in an 'A' frame config on my B-2 and PAK DA flying wings. My aerial cam vids with my B-2 have not revealed any wing tip flutter. I have seen the whole back-end of the B-2 flutter at high speeds and in heavy winds a lot though.
If you like flying wings check out my threads on the B-2 and PAK DA flying wings.

The powered version takes shape...
I have completed the build and tested the gizmos as well as loaded the wing and tossed her heavy for the final glide tests.
And now for the maiden flight...

Good Job, keep up the nice work, ChellieI'm glad you like them.
You might want to try the "5EZP" Ho-229.
I think it makes a great flying wing.
