98" MQ-9 Reaper Drone!

Hi, I am wondering if anyone out there has flown the 98" MQ-9 Reaper from nitroplanes. Looks awesome and I plane to have this as my FPV drone. There will be some mods like a better paint job and clear dome for camera. Anyway I want to know if this is suitable for FPV. Pros/cons, etc, Thanks.

  • Papa Jeff found this one and the other smaller Reaper (called a predator B) model to be great fly as long as you don't expect it to be a 3D thrill ride. As for its FPV/UAV capability there is a thread somewhere showing a projected mass that you could fit in it after the normal parts. If I remember rightly it is quite heavy off the bat so part choices need to be good.
