Sorry, I just don't see this as much of a "Review".
You didn't even cover what its improvements are, much less what it's now capable of - which surely a pre-film reading of the owner's manual would've advised?
I visited in anticipation of learning - spent 3-1/2 minutes of my life, for basically nothing. Should I feel disappointed?
Interesting to note the design of you alerons. I would imagine that with this design your stability would be quite twitchy. Have you ever played around with a "V" shaped aleron? ie sharp end pointed to air flow, splayed ends redirecting air flow to a wider area hence greater stability. Sides of the inverted "V" could be convex to create even more spread. Anyway just a thought. Interesting project Bruce. Expat Kiwi
I thought that the jet pack project had been pretty much "moth balled" for good. This should be a definative test for this stabilizer system I would think. It's one thing to put it on an already stable plane, but that jet pack will no doubt really put it to the test.
Great video Bruce!!... i cant wait for the FPV videos, Question Can you Connect a 2.4ghz 14dbi patch antenna with a 1 watt booster, to say... a Turnigy 9x with the frsky DIY kit,..8 ch rx. and the FPV Tx/Rx with an 8dbi patch antenna and a 5dbi long whip antenna connected to a Diversity controller,... just wanted to know what you think, & any info would be great.... thanks Bruce.
Bruce have you tryed getting in touch with EagleTree the Guardian stabilization just came out. I hope to have it by the week end. I have the FY 20 a stabilization in my skywaker now and it works ok
@Delaunay73 As I mention in the description of this video -- the FY30A isn't a replacement for the FY21AP because it has no autopilot function - it's just a stabilizing device. I suspect that FY will soon announce an FY31AP for the FPV fliers out there.
Where is the test flight??? 5 months have passed....

I really don't mean to be derogatory, but
A) - Showing you've got one;
B) - Taking it out of its box; and
C)- Telling how you plan to use it....?

@StarHoppen That's why it's not called a review -- it's called a PREVIEW :-)

Bruce, you should strap your Open Pilot Copter Control on to your jet pack. It would be interesting to see the performance compared to the FY20A.

I'm happy that I gave up buying the FY21AP last week! Can go directly to the 30A now! Can't wait to see your flight test with it!
