Overview
The Argus is a conventional high-wing platform built around a nose camera turret and a tail-mounted pusher. The motor sits behind the V-tail, well clear of the camera arc, and each wing splits into three panels so the whole aircraft packs down flat.
Features
- Steerable nose turret for a Raspberry Pi camera
- Tail pusher, no propeller in the camera view
- Three wing panels per side for transport
- V-tail with enclosed servo bays
- Internal channels for antennas and telemetry
