Aeromao frame
Uses pilon racer frame, attached to a pod. Smaller pod will result in higher speed but less endurance.

Ideas
Build a d5f pylon racer but make the body larger and attache small dome camera to underside, that can retract back into the fuselage when landing. Electric pylon RC racer that flies at over 200km/h. Or place the electric motor on top the fuselage,wing structure and form a round dome in the nose of the plane, merged with the fuselage and the camera inside at the front.
