FPV at 100mph

by squishy | April 9, 2013 | (5) Posted in Just Fun

My Sweep Wings Juggernaut, built by my buddy Ruben, flying 100mph in FPV formation with Jay, the chase plane, in another Juggernaut. For more information on the Juggernaut visit: http://parkflysac.com/index.php/topic,1072.0.html

9x6 prop
RCTimer BC3536/6
50amp HK ESC
6600mah 4 cell

At full open throttle she pulls 800 watts so I can only do it for short periods of time.

you could do it like this http://tinyurl.com/knof3gr ;-) contact point must be pointy!!!
Install all electronics that can't be moved around. Place it on the c.g.-scale where it should be: Put in the rest of the electronics and move them around until its balanced.

This fpv camera is just a $50 sony camera from Sierrarc.com and then a Contour HD for the HD content. I wouldn't fly from a GoPro, it's best to use a dedicated FPV camera for piloting.
