Thanks Andre! Stay warm out there!

Fully layered up for that day.

6S 5000. I fly from a tarmac runway so I am guessing it will not need much of a take off run. I have set it up a couple of times in the garden and do it the way you do apart from turning on its back for the struts. I am paraplegic (paralysed in both legs) so fly from a wheelchair and have to set it up on my lap but it is not too bad at all. Hope to maiden it on Thursday.

Love the matching jacket too! Great video, really enjoyed it. My GT is ready for maiden.

Its a good jacket. Have fun on the Maiden. 6S or 4?

What onboard camera do you use? Picture quality is amazing.

Been using my RunCam 2 4K lately but in this video it was an older F1 4K camera.

Are the wingstruts really nessesary for flying - or can it stable fly without them too ? (I hate the assembling wingstruts) :-)

I suspect they are required.

HOBBYKING IS NOT SELLING THIS PLANE YET...APRIL 13, 2018

[@cowboy6591]

Too much bending squatting and kneeling, I will have to shop for a 24 inch stand and a small cushioned seat. And besides, doing that in a cold windy parking lot is NOT my idea of fun, but neither is Tennessee's hot summer days. The least I will do is give my back a break. Good God you have to be a contortionist to get through that. I just bought a Grand Tundra and I am getting a strong message here watching this video. Airplane stand, seat and Done's pills are in order. Maybe a huge van and leave the thing built as I travel. This Hobby has a tendency to turn into WORK and a JOB if we don't keep this "B"ovine "S"overeignty in order.
