First person view from my Parkzone Radian Pro. Second day out, so the flying's not super great, but the view is pretty nice from up there. I cut the boring long motor runs and the parts where I suck (there's one or two seconds of that). Wind picks up towards the end so the landing is a bit interesting, but there's been much worse since this video was taken... Feel free to ask me any questions!
@FLoHIO117 I don’t have access to my plane right now. They’re called 808 keychain cameras, and they run about 10-25 bucks. There's some good info just scattered around the web as well as quite a few videos on youtube that give an overview. Perfect for RC, cause they don’t weigh much at all, and if you break it, who gives a shit; it’ll just put you out of ~15 bucks!

@macaddict34 can you make a vid of your fpv setup on your radian?

@FLoHIO117 I’m really a noob with sailplanes so my longest flight is ~45 minutes. I’ll post another video here soon of a flight that didn’t end real great due to a seized aileron servo.

@FLoHIO117 It’s not a true FPV system, but just a 15 dollar “keyfob Spycam”. I’m not sure what it weights, but it’s not very much (I was even able to tape it on one of Parkzone’s ultra-micros and the thing still flew!). The weight of the camera is tiny compared to the radian pro, so you’ll never notice a hit in performance. Flight times are not effected either. Those are highly variable; if conditions are good the thing will stay up for a long time in the hands of good pilot.

hello how well does this fly with the weight of the fpv system and how long?
