First (low cost) FPV wing...easier than I thought was created by DominicM

I've flown a few FPV quads but not an FPV plane...so thought I would try out the Reptile S800 FPV wing. Came with everything except the receiver and flight battery. Relatively simple to put together. Flew it FPV for the first time today. Never had so much fun. Vid below of my flying experience...

The guys at our club who fly FPV usually find it easier when sitting down - then they don't get disoriented and fall over! :evil:

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Couldn't understand why you were looking at the ground - then it dawned........................

I should have worked out by now that a chair would be very useful but I forgot it. Was actually OK. Couldn't standup fly quads/drones FPV but flying a plane that is level most of the time is OK.
