Very nice Richard.  Good luck with the maiden and look forward to see a video of the flight.

I've not flown mine (or anything else FPV) since New Years day when I did the narrated flight video. The weather has been lousy since then. I've now swapped out the 2815 motor for a Hacker A30 10XL which I had on my retired ZII. I know this is rated for 4S and I used to get excellent duration from if even batting around with the ZII.  I'll report back how that goes very soon.

Happy flying.

Hi mjc1970, l saw your YouTube video of the Penguin and wanted to ask if you could advise the make and model of the small FPV camera that you had used at the nose end of your Penguin?

Thanks in advance.

Here's the link to the camera Fade2Gray. I've added a wide angle lens to it and have mounted it on a 260o servo from Simon.

And here we go... Got the 1.6 Horizon firmware on the FY-Hornet. Seems like there may be slight interference at different throttle settings. Can you see it?
