I got this amazing glider from Espritmodel.com
My main goal was to use this glider for soaring using FPV .
On board I use APM 2.6 During the flight I use 3 modes
Manual - Fly by Wire -B - RTH.
Soaring abilites of Glider Pulsar is excellent !!
Radio: Futaba Mz 14 72 Mhz ( for long distance control )
Video equipment 5,8Ghz Tx 400ma

I use prop Aeronaut 13x11
I used the same motor as for my another Pulsar gliders I use for ALES competition
As I wrote my goal soaring by FPV, no long duration of flight.
Average flight time 30-40 minutes, mostly with motor "off"
APM 2.6 on board just for security reason if I lose video contact back model to home and take manual control
By the way APM works great !!! I use APMs over 5 years, start from APM 1 , and never had any problems
Hello there Alex,
Nice looking plane. Alex, what propeller are you using? With that plane at 2,5kg, you might try a 500kv motor with a 15x12 to 15x13 prop and 4 cells - I believe you will drop motor amps down to around 4amps at a cruise speed of 14m/s with that wing ....
The Nampilot..
Very cool! Great looking model. What flight times are you getting while fpving it?
Everywhere around me is claimed farmland...
That look slike a clean installation. Thanks for the post Alex. I am considering a build with the Esprit Models Albatross using a Vector AP.
For filming I have used GoPro3 attached on top of the central panel of wing.
For better performance of stream video during the FPV flight better use Security Camera PZ0420. This is what I have now
We used a slightly bigger camera - An S4 Zoom android camera.
Better use small camera. I used what I have
