In this video you will watch our first flight testing here in our local city without any help from FY people. We did it all by ourselves and it was all just piece of cake with newest FY GCS 4.0 beta. It's a ground video showing Laptop with Plane Telemetry where you can see that plane follows way points with extreme precision. We had some deviation but it was just few meters. Direct google earth works just great and it provides total ease for plotting new way points and navigate around for longer flights. We had almost 4 km stretch flight and it was totally successful.

  • @Alishanmao. Thanks. How are you finding the GCS? I downloaded v2.2 and it crashed my Windows 7 laptop after it connected to the FY21AP, I was getting telemetry for a few seconds then I got the blue screen of death. Do you know where to get the latest code from?

  • @wildnrgx FY people have it

  • @alishanmao Your skywalker flys very stable. Where is your CoG on your skywalker located? 75mm rear of the leading edge as the the instructions? Or further back (30mm back from the servo leads as per some discussion forums)

  • @wildnrgx after installation of the batteries, i put my fingers under the wing and feel the wooden plates that are mounted for wing wood support to go in. i place my fingers on the woods under the wing and lift the plane up, thats where my CG works wonderful if i can get a slight nose heavy SW there.

  • CAN YOU PROVIDE A COPY OF THE NEW GCS SOFTWARE USED IN THIS VIDEO?

  • @brunosoto i will do some videos on the newest autopilot from FY. wait for it.

see all

  • What is the head set for ? Cool video

  • @Alishanmao download link for the latest software? Also do you determine what PID parameters to use?

  • Amazing

  • @alishanmao Great! Thats exactly what I'm looking for! I just wish it wasnt 4-5 times the price of RVOSD. I think I'm leaning that direction. That system is missing the GCS interface with Google Earth but they have screenshots of the software working so I think it's right around the corner. Price $335 USD
