"I did. And it failed brutally. I had a parameter wrong in the APM that caused the throttle to be only about 50% or 60% of what it needed. So it could not get airborne with a hand launch. Once I fixed that, I had already removed an excess of weight…"
"Very good write up, and good detail and pointers, keep it coming!"
"For the first couple of flights I am going to be landing in some pretty mild field. So the landing gear should hold up. I am eventually going to cover the landing gear in some sort of foam around the sides so it can take the brunt of the landing if…"
"Sweet. That gives me hope for a maiden! Very nice photos above and the in air shots as well!"
"Thanks! It might be about a week or so before the maiden as the weather went from mid 50's down to 20's again, too cold! lol. I have a really sweet non congested spot for flying. I am not an expert flyer and have been training on a Apprentice 15e.…"
"Had a chance to fly it yet? How is the air speed sensor working out for you? I mounted mine way out on the wing just to be outside of the prop flow."
"Just an update on my build. Nearing completion. Just waiting on my FPV gear to clear customs then do some final tuning then a few test flights.
Just a few highlights:
-APM 2.6 with GPS.
-Air speed sensor.
-2 3s Zippy 5000mah lipos.
-Stock…"

"I would love to see how the SX230 looks installed. The I have the SX160 installed right now and it looks pretty neat!"
"@ Tommy Larsen;
If you don't mind could you share a couple photos of your current setup? I am really interested in your work! (Unless it is top secret :))"

"Can't wait for the blogspot to go live!!"
"Anyone using CHDK with a camera yet? I am thinking of picking up a Cannon S160IS when black Friday comes up for $79! This plane is going to be so heavy. Haven't been able to do as much as I wanted with it yet due to life. I need to repair my crappy…"
"New tray and other goodies installed. This is just a foam try with black tape. Final versions will be carbon or balsa. Something light weight. I want to make it so I can also snap 2 5000mah hour batteries in a final tray as well."
"Perhaps the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Not the pilot. But the media reaction."
"The group is steadily growing! We now have 12 members. I need to upload some photos and do some test flights but I am pretty busy with work and college at the moment, so for the rest of you, show us what you got!"
