Title: FPV with a Xeno
Post by: HJ65 on November 11, 2012, 10:55:43 AM
Fat Shark TX/RX Dominator setup originally mounted on my DJI Naza. I wanted to show some family members the gear so for dramatic effect I moved it all over to the Xeno. 20mph gusty wind at the base of Scout Moor wind farm, Lancs, so it's a little bumpy but like all Multiplex aircraft, it's forgiving and easy to fly. The recording camera is a £25 car journey recording unit but it's light. I've since acquired a GoPro Hero. The stills taken with a Nikon DSLR. Music by my brother, I'd be a poor brother if I didn't give him a plug http://soundcloud.com/shriekofaneagle (http://soundcloud.com/shriekofaneagle)

Great pics!

I had thought about using one of these - quite handy that it folds in half... Easy to transport.

Good music too, props to your bro!

MarkLincs - the Xeno is easy to fly, 3S 2200 for more flying time than I can concentrate on. Power pod has a weak point, a tab broke, may have to modify motor mount.

Snagglesworth - I'm SE London but mrs' family are around Bury/Edenfield. Couldn't resist that hill.

That's a lovely location! I'd have been tempted to get closer to the wind farm though! From a photographic point of view it would have made good footage..

Excellent stuff, I can't wait to get my fpv gear and get started!..
