This proposal was submitted to RLM in 1935, but it was rejected as being "technically dubious and uninteresting from the tactical viewpoint".


Technical data:
calculated speed: 800 km/h (at 2000 m)
span: 3,125 m
length:: 7,15 m
propulsion: pulse jet with mid-fuselage, radial intake


Source:
Monogram Close-Up 04 - Buzz Bomb (p.2)
New Vanguard 106 - V-1 Flying Bomb 1942-52 (p.3-4)


Could someone tell more about this project? And could someone explain what is that "air pressure/fuel" thing on SM1934.jpg and how is it working?

It's the fuel injector. The idea being that high-ram-pressure air would mix with the fuel, be shot out radially, and the turbulence would create efficient mixing so that the combustion would be more of a detonation.

So the fuel injected to the right side of the plate, into the turbulent air?
 
It looks to be related to some of the Swedish postwar work with pulsejet driven missiles, particularly the RB 311 test missile: http://www.robotmuseum.se/Mappar/Robothistorik/ARM_Rb_311.htm
...and operational RB 315 ship-to-ship missile: http://www.x-plane.org/home/urf/aviation/arbm03/arbm_0307-315-1.jpg
Both used internally mounted pulse jets.
 
Hi,


also a pulsejet engine for a flying bomb,designed by Schmidt.

From Benecke/Quick "History Of German Guided Missiles Development", AGARD 1956, a drawing of
the Schmidt-Madelung flying bomb, showing the envisaged launch position.
