Maiden FPV flights, including launches, proximity flying, loops, rolls, inverted, stall tests, dive test, max climb and speed run.
Was moderate wind and turbulence but it handled it ok.
Was using the Eagle Tree Guardian 2D/3D stabilizer in 3D mode *some* of the time.
AUW is about 2.2Kg.
Power setup is Scorpion SII-3020-1110 V2 turning first an APC 12x8.5 folding prop,
then later in the vid a 11x8.5 broken prop (knocked the tips off on the ground and
rebalanced with tape). Now running an MPI 12x6 folding prop.
These flights were with either single 3S 4000 or 3S 5000 battery pack. Plane
can handle 1-4 battery packs.
CG has been moved back every flight, and I think it's close to optimal right
on the front edge of the servo wire slots in the wing.
Filmed with GoPro Hero3 Black at 1080p@30fps, Protune off.
