We went down to the town moor for about 6.45 am and tested out the new pan and tilt setup. The pan was fine but tilt was controlled by the throttle stick using the idle up mode on my heli TX, this does not work very well IMHO so I will move the tilt function to a toggle switch for the next flight. Also I tried a 6x3 prop to slow the plane down a little, but it just felt under powered so it is back to the APC 6x4 for the next flight also.
