Its a devil to get anything to stick to the EPP foam so I ended up using some "Clear Foam Glue" - give it a night to cure but it holds everything together well and has some elasticity for those bounces along the ground or into trees...http://bit.ly/1naNw51
Warm up laps ahead my first night flight.

Just a short video of me chasing SlaughterMe's [https://goo.gl/dbP9K7] MyTwinDream FPV Plane. [http://goo.gl/CtI0SC]. I was flying my beat up but still running Hobby King Sky Eye, which with the parts below Im getting up to a 50min flight time. Building a new one now, a bit more streamlined and lighter - hoping to consistantly crack 1 hour.

Today's FPV view of me chasing SlaughterMe's [https://goo.gl/dbP9K7] MyTwinDream FPV Plane. [http://goo.gl/CtI0SC]. Certainly looks like he is onto a winner - he achieved a 58min flight time and still had a tonne of room for more batteries!

Another boring video of my landings whilst FPVing the Dynam Smart Trainer [http://bit.ly/1qMbK7I] - all under googles. Really was having fun washing of altitude and speed, lining her up then bringing her in. Pretty happy given the last two were is some strong winds.
