It breaks down quite small.

2 wing half's,  and a fusalage.

It does not need a massive space to launch.  On 4 cell it climbs out at around 30 degrees.  4 cell is must have better.

The model has spoilers installed,  so landing is easy.  Full deployment gives  you a 1 in 1 glider angle!

Looks perfect weather... Perfect wind strength and direction AFAICS.
Funny to see the Power voltage stay at 12. 5 V for the entire flight!

Nice to see all the other planes on the hill as well.

What did the other fliers on the hill make of it?
Did you tell them that you are flying FPV?
Did they try to stay clear?

A lovely way to spend a sunny day  :)

It's was a superb day.

Everyone was on board with me flying.

I did the sensible thing.

1.  Spoke to the club first to check there where no issues.
2. Had a spotter
3. Let everyone know.

Most guys where very interested. .  With a number putting on my passenger goggles.
