After not performing that well on 2 x 160N engines Steve upgraded to 2 x 220N engines. Much improved ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR0YByCguxE

Caddx Walksnail GM3 3 axis gimbal Walksnail Avatar HD Pro Kit v2 camera in a Hangar 9 RV4. My helper wore the Walksnail Goggles L while I flew line of sight for this test flight. I was expecting engine vibration to affect the view quite badly BUT it didn't. Opens up the possibility of using this setup in some big warbirds later this year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VgM1I0N5Og

Not much tail wind actually. Mostly cross wind on that day. Some blue sky so tracking not too hard but I did fly against a cloud on one reversal and nearly lost it. I'll add some colour to the wing tips !

I was shocked. How can a foamie go that fast ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F57Xy-bwsmA

Spectacular views from this scale Bush Plane. No doors and no side screens are a real bonus when flying FPV plus being able to see down the back of the aircraft because the rear fuselage isn't covered. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-dr3djFQ78

Got my AtomRC Beluga dialled in now. C20T gimbal with XFs own head tracker and receiver is just superb with DJI O3. Moves very quickly. Barely noticeable latency between head and gimbal movement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcFdjJP4-jE

2 to 3 evenings to build...and huge fun to fly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sht5C5it0OQ

100% scratch build. Quite amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqH_sWLJQ_A

Caddx Walksnail FPV camera in a GM3 gimbal in a FlyWing Bell 206 GPS helicopter. Works quite well ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P11Kidc6SQ
