  • what is the name of the song?

  • Meant to Live by Switchfoot

  • You can safely control it up to a mile and a half using quality radio gear. Charge time for the Lipo batteries are about one hour. Flight time is between 15-25 minutes.  If you have more than one battery, you can charge one while flying another.

  • Use the wing and tail for orientation. For the most part, the plane will self right itself when you let go of the controls, unless your in high wind. If it's real windy, I'm not able to get high altitude anyway before my battery runs out.

  • It's what you call "speced out" meaning it looks like a tiny little spec. I just guts it. I don't use any fancy monitoring system, I just view the plane at all times, and never look away. When I'm ready to come down, I just cut power and let it float down by itself.

  • Oh, thank you.

    The camera I used in this set of videos is a Nikon 3700, which is somewhat dated. I have since upgraded to a Panasonic Lumix FX01. Video system I use is just the built in video function of the 3700, and a 1GB SD card. :)

  • because you have 2 motors on it, do you need to have 2 speed controllers?

  • Very nice but in this kind of videos classic music is way better because it relax you while you watch the environment from the sky :) But that won't change my mind of valuating your work with 5 stars :)
