That’s the second time I’ve knocked the tail off the fox (luckily no major damage) but at least this time I can see why.
May look at a minor mod to the “Dolly Trolley” so that next time I forget & give it up elevator too soon it won’t have anything to catch on.
Other than that on the second (afternoon) launch, the morning flight was a perfect FPV cruise.
Moose, for your first onboard camera you can’t go past a RunCam2, get the orange one as its easier to see than the black one.
Stay away from the RunCam Split & the Mobius Mini. They are both great cameras but not for your first one.
The RunCam 2 comes in 4K and 1080P these days (I think) but the 1080P is fine for what we do.
Very nice Uncle G.
Good move not using OB motors. They would look great & perform well but oh the forever maintenance. That was why I removed them from “Double Trouble” and went to twin inboard motors.
Don’t forget to install lights as I’m sure we will eventually manage to organise another twilight mass sailing @ the canal.
It must be a day for short clips today.
I started the day off not feeling my usual cheery self & it didn’t improve as the day wore on.
Consequently I got very little footage “around the field” today but I’m sure Kermit will pick up the slack just this once !!.At least I did manage to assist in finding the Moose’s lost Razor by using the built in RSSI on the Taranis as a direction finder (harks back to the old Ham Radio Fox Hunt days)
Due the the wind & feeling unwell I opted not to fly the 3M Fox glider that has finally been set up for FPV flight. Having not flown FPV at all for around 12 months & the fact it was rather windy I opted to leave the Fox packed in the car and wait for another day.
Did get several flights though with the “Sky Shadow” wing and a couple with the BumbleBee glider so the day was not a total waste.Another nice “Kermit BBQ” was enjoyed by all @ lunchtime. Thanks Mr Frog.
