Just an update on my previous Blog Post. I have tested Loiter, RTL and Waypoint navigation on my Bixler Plane.
So far I am happy with the results. There was a bit of wind on this specific day. I also tested waypoints at 100m Altitude which I was looking forward to seeing the end result myself.........but my camera battery went flat..........
Chris you are welcome to link some of these videos to the Arduplane site.....

I also have done about 15 min on a 2200mA battery. I have also flown with a 4400mA battery but did not test how long it will last in the air. Hopefully 30min or more........... I have also done some FPV lately and I found it very exciting. I am wandering if a Vshape antenna on my 5.8Ghz Tx (Video and audio signal) will give me better reception on the Ground Station?
Cool stuff, are you running a 2200mAH battery? How much endurance do you get?
