Crazy Scary FPV Flight

by squishy | September 30, 2012 | (9) Posted in Just Fun


A scary FPV flight.  I went up really high and wasn't paying attention to where I was, instead of flying out, I fly up and out of my directional antenna's range.  It was high enough to give me time to move the base station around the car and point the antenna at the plane, I then dived for home as soon as I saw it.

That is the Sirrus from Foxtech, I don't like the way it flies but it's done the job of testing all my electronics for the Skywalker sitting here in pieces. It tip stales bad and flies like a tank, I would recommend stabilization which I am going to try next on this airframe...
