RC Plane Aiptek Action HD Flight Test

This is my first flight test using the Aiptek Action HD Camcorder mounted to the bottom of a 40 sized trainer. The video is jumpy due to a somewhat windy day. Please view the HD version for higher resolution.

Hello TheCoolDude1230, The plane is a 40 sized Easy Star trainer coupled with a .46 Thunder Tiger engine (yes I replaced the electric motor with a glow engine). I simply strapped a video camera on the belly of the plane where the electric motors batteries used to be mounted and flew it around. I think you'll find that just about any basic trainer package you can purchase will have a surprising payload capacity. Take care,

Polz
