That's a really nice setup mate, nice work. Not sure about that motor mount thing though, that's got to be adding some weight = more torque required to spin = more amp draw = less flight time.

I know, not ideal at the minute. Its the shaft of a folding prop spinner, but the folding props haven't arrived yet! I was absolutely dying to fly it and sunday was a beautifully calm day so i just stuck a prop on and went out flying :)

I bought everything from Simon on www.firstpersonview.co.uk (http://www.firstpersonview.co.uk)

The antennas are simply amazing and definitely worth a buy at £35!

Nice little setup there. One thing I noticed was your EZOSD mounting on the underside of your pod. Your GPS sensors pointed down at the ground, it should be up at the sky to pick up satelites

 I've actually taken the GPS off the OSD and mounted it on the top of the pod. I've just had a look and you can just see it at the start of the video, wrapped in yellow electrical tape on the far side :)
