NitroPlanes has a Brushless edition of the A-10. I decided to mount their "GumPack" Video camera on board for the maiden flight. Here is what happened.

This A-10 has these statistics.
Length 872 MM
Wingspan: 968 MM
Weight: 450 Gram
Battery: 11.1V, 1.5 Amp Lipo
Radio: 72 MHz, Channel
ESC: 2, 20 Amp GLs

Pretty impressive performance with great handling, even in the wind.

Missing a small wood piece, was basically all that I found wrong and that was an easy thing to make.
I'm not crazy about the radio on 72 Mhz, but all in all this plane looks nice and flies nicely for me.

The 18 Gram Camera is totally cool. Very small, it had a 2Gig card with it and was easy to mount and operate in the bright daylight. You can see for yourself how the video came out. I was and still am very impressed with this tiny camera.
Here is the link to NitroPlanes.com to obtain the camera or A-10 twin ducted fan Jet.

Hope you enjoyed this and have a great day.
