Prototype revision #2 has arrived

The new version of the AtlantikSolar prototype (revision #2) has arrived at ETH Zurich! Compared to the first revision, the fuselage has been improved aerodynamically and structurally, mostly to facilitate integration of the autopilot & communication system hardware. In addition, the wings and stabilizers have been adapted in size (and now feature a new design!). Prototype #2 will soon be equipped with electronics such as the flight control system in order to prepare it for its next test flight in early March. Some first pictures – with no wings assembled – are below!
