An afternoon's flying in my Zpehyr II at a friend's farm a couple of months ago. Highlights for me included not seeing a lot of powerlines in my goggles until there was nothing I could do about it (see this at about 30 seconds into the video)! Overall a lot of fun just cruising around the neighbourhood with some close flying moments at 1:55, 2:00, and a cow run at 2:20!
Plane details
I treid to do as clean an install as possible. Interestingly I got 13km an hour more speed than my friend's Zephyr with exactly the same set up, but not as clean an install.
