Our first small batch of Talon UAV aircraft have arrived! Unpacked the first one, (naturally that will be my very own) and must say i am so far impressed with what I see. I think this is going to kick the Skywalker's @ss!
Checked the net, and found only a russian version of the unboxing video. Thinking about making an English version if there is enough demand. So how about it, think you can put up with my South African, Afrikaans accent? perhaps we will move on to a flying and tuning video as well, who knows...
For now, here are a few pics to keep you interested...

looks interesting. were working on our very own steadidrone wing, 1.3m foledabe compact, durable and enough room for gear.
Good to know! thanks for the reply. Can't wait to see a review.
@uavstuff - WAAAAY more place to pack things easier to get to , Much stronger and more rigid. (any T-tail has an inherent weak point). Also the wing here may be a bit smaller, but it has a HUGE chord, giving you greater wing area.
Guys , will start on the videos right away. Never done them before, so may be a bit amateurish, but its gonna be a cool learning curve.

great to see this, looking forward to a full review. I'm in the market for an FPV plane and this is looking to be a great option!
For me, it's coming down to this airframe, or the HK Phantom flying wing. I want something rugged that won't explode on a rough landing. Both of these seem to have that. The Phantom is a very simple machine and seems robust, but it's just a little small for my application. It's great as an FPV airplane, but to carry a downward facing P&S, and some bigger batteries, it's just too cramped.
I love to know your review! I looking forward this model for my next FPV plane.
Anyway, I not study yet about V tail for APM2.5. I hope it will work well.
Looks great. I would love to see an boxing, building, and tuning and flying video.
What's the benefit of the Talon over the Skywalker? From appearance alone it looks like a bulkier, perhaps heavier airframe.
