The video was shot with a FlyCamOne2 mounted on the nose on the fourth flight of the maiden event. I cannot get rid of the date stamp for the life of me. I do not have a DVR for remote flight recording as of yet.

This EasyStar setup is very basic for now and used many inexpensive parts. I had no idea how tolerant this airframe is to the additional weight! I got four flights of about 5-6 minutes each with the final flight battery still showing 3.85V/cell after everything. Ground battery was barely touched as was the A/V transmitter battery. I will be adding ailerons, carbon fiber reinforcements, and an OSD in the relatively near future. An antenna tracking system is also on the list.

*Multiplex Easy Star ARF
(Don't get the ARF. It was the only option available for me.)
*500mW 900MHz A/V Transmitter from ReadyMadeRC
*Standard 900MHz Receiver from ReadyMadeRC
*RangeVideo DX-201 Camera
*Tiny Adjustable Microphone (stuffed inside the fuselage)
*Enlarged Rudder Modification
*Fuselage Side Hatch Modification (use the underbelly hatch method)
*Turnigy Plush 30A ESC/BEC
*Turnigy 2835-2200kV Brushless Inrunner
*Turnigy 3S 3000mAh LiPo (one in the plane, one on the ground)
*Turnigy Rhino 3S 610mAh LiPo for A/V System
*APC 6x4e Prop
*MPI Prop Adapter
*Spektrum DX7 with AR7000 Receiver and satelite
*HeadPlay Goggle System with Towel-over-head Method
*Inexpensive Tripod
*LiPo Alarm (LOUD) on both the plane and the ground station
