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!

My first real flight testing my new RunCam2 - having been a Mobius guy for all this time. There are things I like - the bright orange of the unit itself, the battery life, the wifi - but there are things I definitely dont like - the sound it atrocious and I think it really struggles when facing the sun. I think I prefer the Mobius.

7min of me flying my butt off keeping SlaughterMe's [https://goo.gl/dbP9K7] MyTwinDream FPV Plane [http://goo.gl/CtI0SC] in frame. Was probably my best flying in a while, especially following him through a corkscrew at the end [5:53] as he prepared to land. Have to say the MyTwinDream is quite a plane, I think it had 9000mah in it and if we hadn’t been mucking around would have done near a 70/80 minute flight.
The reverse view of my plane from his can be found here: https://youtu.be/g6n8hGLjeL8.

My first coastal FPV! Must admit I was scared s#!tless - Was doing it by myself and had no idea where I was most of the time - even though you are looking through the goggles fine when you start hearing that plane go far away there is an element of panic!
Did it with my laminated, cut down Bixler 1.1 on an 4800mah - this is basically a battery with wings - the Bixler 1.1 is so stable and predictable its only plane an amatuer like me would consider doing this with first the first time.

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.
