Self-Landing FPV Raptor after RC Lockout

19 May 2013

MY Turnigy 9x decided to lock out on me at only 300m! Somehow the plane then managed to land itself without me having control - woop! Just goes to show how important it is to have a properly set up plane, and luckily I was heading into the wind which helped give it some lift!
