    Yes I'm a big fan of Wipeout. When I first saw FPV racing I didn't thought about Star Wars but Wipeout :D

    Quite surprised  that you can run a full race in your amazing track with the 7mm motors, you should try a 8mm mod, that would be like going from acid to ecstasy :-))

    I just love these Silverxx Hacks, I never had so much fun for so little money !!

    Keep us updated

    This is a stock H8 mini with a few mods :

    - 260mah batteries

    - Silver13 firmware

    - FX797T camera

    - Antenna mod

    - Custom antenna protection (for both radio and FPV) 3D printed in semiflex material (very efficient and only 1.3g)

    I fly it with a Devo 7E modified with DeviationTX + NRF24L01 radio module.

    Here is the beast :D
