  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 ?

[FPVSteve]

Fuselage is definitely fatter and rounder.

Just not liking that nose at all, apart from that yeah looks decent

[FPVSteve]

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

[FPVSteve]

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.
