@mysteron09 - I haven't flown my Super DX3 since the producing this video (Feb 19, 2011), so I'm unsure how high it will fly without the camera. My next Super DX3 flight will be dual-deployment and those plans are currently underway. You made a great choice building the Super DX3. Once it has flown, be sure to post your launch video to YouTube and send me your link.

Just finishing up a Super DX3 myself - how high are you getting it without the camera on board? I was thinking of using the I212 for the first flight. BTW - got a good chuckle out of the Fireball XL5 music :-)
