look at this baby!!!

Jealous, yup I know you are





Decided after yesterdays rant I needed to put something together that I wouldnt care if I crashed it.

I've succeeded!

Will it fly? Who knows

one of these, nothing special

Nice matey, but that brick camera mount sure will upset the flying characteristics.  I put my GoPro brick onto my late F27C just to record a LOS flight.  Wow it handled like a brick itself lol with a huge reduction in straight line speed making a funny whistling sound hehe.

Good luck with it - here's waiting for decent weather eh?!

lol, yep

tbh I didnt really know I was building anything, i was just tinkering about, wondering how to best keep the board camera out of harms way, it most definetly got over engineered, and the next thing I knew I was attaching it to the wing

she wont win any design awards thats for sure, and your right it might not even fly, as the wing was a pig before it got a lump of camera/foam/balsa velcro-ed on top

but, when it crashes the camera will survive, lol

Gav, you put a GoPro on a stryker? what's the wingspan of one of those?

I'm lookin to FPV my Swift 800mm wingspan, I know it wont handle the GoPro very well but Its worth a try.. eh?

Hi corpB 
Wing span is about 95cm.  I believe this particular model has been dicontinued (Stryker F27 C)
Shame as a replacement airframe was only £18.  I smashed my last one up with with a failed fpv experiment. As luck would have it, I have a spare frame and all the ancillaries not sure about fpv'ing it again at the moment but maybe in time

Get a HoryzonHD cam, it'll go on almost anything I reckon
