Skywalker 1900 Maiden

20 April 2015

Filmed with GoPro3 headcam. What a lovely plane this is - so docile but plenty of power too. No problems, except RTH didn't engage. I think that's a bit of stupidty on my behalf though, as well as a poor manual for the flight controller. Or maybe just not enough satellites .. who knows. But she flew brilliantly!
