This is my maiden flight ever with a Phoneix 2000 soarer with motor from Hobbyking. Flew it for 15 minutes with a cheap 6$ 3S 1500mah lipo cell... incredible airplane, highly recommended! It was also very visible from high altitude even in the dawn because of it 2 meter wingsize! Flew over Storvreta firestation in Sweden! Pretty windy actually, but i have 2 TG-380 airplane gyros to help out too! One on alerion and an on alt-rudder. Shot with turnigy 9$ keychain camera. Got faster memory in it now, probably better framerate next time! The airplane is also equipped with GWS BE-FOUND incase of radio failure. Reciever is a Spectrum Clone, also from Hobbyking.. everything cost nothing there! :-)
