Had my first flight with the X8 under Eagletree Vector Control ..all went very well from a hand launch.
X8 weighs in at just under 2.5 Kg
• 4 Cell 4500 battery
• 790KV motor with 12.5 x 6.5 folding prop
• EZUHF radio link with horizontal dipole and vertical monopole
• 600mW Immersion Vidio link
• Vector OSD / stabilisation
• 60A esc with separate bec
• Body shell reinforced with glass cloth
Maximum current draw was 40A during a 1200 foot per minute climb out.
Landing was so slow that I could have almost caught it!
More testing tomorrow!
