Following on from my relative success with the birdie fpv slope wing - I felt I needed a model with a little more penitration.
Enter the HK Ridge Ryder.
To make this all work neatly I have designed a drop in canopy - printed in 1mm abs.
The system is powered by a 2 cell life battery, featuring a mini lt200 transmitter and v700 camera. (The turnigy setup)
Inside the model is a cyclops breeze osd, receiver etc..
The great news. With all the kit installed it is bang on cog - no lead added.
Hope to take it for a spin next week :)

Love my RR for sloping, it's a great wing for the money. Be interesting to see how you get on with fpv as it's a quick little beastie

Lol... not too quick compared to some of my regular models.
Should work well.

Ok. First flight today.
A good result all round.
I ended up swapping the model to use a HK illuminati controller. Cleanflight and MWOSD
Boy am I glad I did!
The stabilised mode on cleanflight made the plane a pleasure to fly.
So much so that I will now move on to cutting the foam to make the setup a bit easier to manage. Its tough having EVERYTHING hiding in the cockpit!

Awesome pan design rob :)
That looks awesome.
Military grade!!
Thanks...
It's driven by a servo in the canopy that is mounted on its side - panning the turret with a ball and socket driver.
I will put an stl on thingiverse soon...

Incidently, which 3D printer do you use, or would you recommend any particular one. They seem to be absolutely ideal for this hobby of ours.
Looks well cool mate. Nice job.

I use a Malyan M180
Only bother printing with ABS or PET
