Its so tiny :) I like it, not in two colours, but looks like it could be usefull.
I like the look of this version...He needs to dump that GoPro, thats going to do nothing for its performance.
Is this going to be available in the New Year Steve?
:vulture:
Doesn't look all that small to be honest lol

pretty much the same size as a mini Talon anyway isnt it ?
Fuselage is definitely fatter and rounder.
Landings are gonna be super,super hot!!!

Just not liking that nose at all, apart from that yeah looks decent
The footage was taken by a Mini Talon v1 with a gimbal on the front ... I would like to see a v1 vs v2 comparison to see which is most efficient - space wise the v2 looks good but the v1 is/was a really nice plane tbh
Dealbreaker?
They don't even cut in a camera mount platform? Here Mr Newton plainly shows he's had to bodge a cut on the front to fit anything.

Am I missing something here? Seems like a fairly pointless airframe if there's not even any mount points for camera gear.
Yeah seems daft to me, at least have the nose with a cutout, but with the option of clipping on a smooth nose.
Like the MFD Crosswind, just not a great nose.
