Pressure of work was cited as the reason for not making it to the Outback Challenge. From their updated blog it looks like they have been busy. The blended wing airframe carries their bespoke autopilot and is conventionally powered. The designers challenge of mounting a camera on a wing in the most aerodynamic way rears its ugly head again.
