techpod test flight #2
I went out to the field at the cascade rc airfield on tuesday 8-7-12. located in snohomish ,wa . today it was me and nick weber . we got to the field and got all the fpv gear set up and the techpod ready .nick tossed it it the air for me and it climbed out nicely . i did a couple laps and at one point the throttle cut and was unresponsive . It came back after a second and i brought it in for a landing . while i was landing i lost throttle again . Luckily the techpod glides well and i greased her it near the end of the runway .here is a picture of the launch and the in flight video . much more to come after sunday . read more about the techpod at hobbyuav.com enjoy :-)
