Nice vid.  What's up with the hot glue on the flash card? ;-)

Comment by Emile L. on September 24, 2012 at 12:55pm

I soldered in the card at a 45deg and then used 5 min epoxy to stabilize everything.

Great video Emile!  Glad you like all the gear and enjoy it now. 

It was not always easy but look how it was worth it. 

We need to prepare out sonars and other gear for winter / colder days now. I plan to write some "Winterization"  tips... yeah we are already there. :( 

At least we will get nice fall colors video coming soon. 

Keep having fun!

Nice.  Can you detail what you've done with those "floats"?  Does it float?

Comment by Hawhoo on September 24, 2012 at 4:46pm

Nice :)

How long can you stay up?

Did you check how the floats impact you airtime?

Comment by Emile L. on September 24, 2012 at 4:50pm

The blue foam is from a kids floater toy. I just sliced a hole and stuck in the landing gear strut. I have never tried to land on water with it. it will float but just. I like to think that it won't sink.

i get about 6 to 7 min flight time. I always have 1/4 capacity in researve. The floats reduced flight time by about a min. They added 150gr. over the old gear.

excellent video!

thanks for including the details

Emile, thank you for taking the time to collect, edit and upload your video.  I enjoyed it immensely!

I especially liked the long continual flight sequences - choppy vids to rawkous muzik does nothing for me.

Keep up the great work!!!!!
