Magister - FPV - Camera on RC Airplane

Ok, so I bought this plane because I wanted to get my hands on a good 4 channel plane.

Its a large plane. The wingspan is 60 inches and by the time I finished adding all the electronics it weighs about

4.5 pounds with the battery..

Ive tried attaching cameras to my other plane (F27 stryker) and even with LiPo \ brushless it didnt fly well thus the video wasnt any good.

The Magister did the trick. Its large enough to mount a small camera without any performance loss. For the following video I used the ATC-1000

from "Oregon Scientific" cost around 80 bucks.

I've just got the MAgister with 680 brushed motor. I hope it will carry my Range Video sony camera and the 500 Mw transmitter. I need to put an extra battery maybe 1000 NiMh.

I have the goggle setup with the 9db antenna. Haven't flown this way before so I'll take off and put on the goggles when in the air. Looks like your doing real well with the Magister. It's supposed to be easy to fly....

Nice setup.. when you get vid posted or when you fly let me know how it goes.. ! Ive allways wanted to try flying with the VR goggles - i may have to do the same!.

As for the plane. -- Fly it first dry -- get used to how it handles prior to mounting the cam. -- There were some adjustments I had to make to the plane for the camera's weight after mounting too.

that would be nice facing forward, and is the video transmitted live, or do u get it after u land?

[brydarn]

I actually like it better backwards.. the tail gives it perspective. its not a wireless cam.. i loaded the vid off the camera to my laptop after the flight.
