19th Dec

Ok, so I just need somewhere to keep track of my Skywalker FPV build, and this is it.

The Skywalker should be delivered in the new year, but I need to get my parts in order.



The Plan, to keep a record of the build, fuck ups, and revisions on the way.
The plane I want will be....
Tops specs
Looks Awsome, Dont want a same old same old white walker like everyone else
Bombproof, its going to get bashed and crashed and probably bitten by the dog.
Unlosable (is that even a word)
Easy to fly confidently in wind, or low
Powerful enough to fly fun
Long range, must look into uhf legality
Best quality video enabled.
Full pan tilt ability for fly camera
Ground station where real time flight video can be viewed by 3rd person.
