Damn, I could watch this all night. I ordered the "RTF" kit that you got too, enough though I don't need the batteries or the charger... because I'm so hot to get this in the air. What radio are you using?

[redkb]

I'm glad you enjoyed my videos. The radio I used in this vid is our older Hitec Eclipse 7. Currently we use a Futaba T6EX. It is a 2.4 GHz Radio. You never have to worry about crystals again with 2.4 GHz. Another cool thing is there are no long antennas on either the radio or the receiver.

Where is the ANNOTATION!!!!!!!!!!!

I had no idea you were into model aviation. Oh man, I love you Ken. xD

I grew up with nitro helis ;}

[robschaap]

Good, good. That tells me the 6100 receiver work that I have for the DX7 I use for my helis. I've been showing people this silly thing all day. Most of the time they look at me and say ... uh, yeah... it's unique...so?

Thanks! We bought the plane with their deluxe brushless power system, which has a Komodo KH2204 17T brushless outrunner motor. It gives plenty of power, and flies well at half power. For the camera we're using a "BWAV Color CCD Camera", along with a transmitter. The camera and transmitter weigh 2oz! The plane has a 42" wing span. I don't know if you noticed, but we did a few more videos. I think my favorite is "Carbon Falcon Flight #3 FF Version"
