I was looking for the info about the indoor and finally found it in a forum that is only accessible to the members. Is that normal ?

The important to know is that it starts tomorrow night from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at the College Charlemagne :-)

And please, don't turning it into a demolition derby the first evening;) My best tips... go easy with the throttle and speed, watch the air traffic and enjoy:)

If your charger is not a AC/DC, use a 2200mAh 3s lipo as your car battery. You could recharge few 2s lipo

I went well for a first night. A few crashes and midair but nothing catastrophic. It was windy indeed and even my boxes was trying to escape my hands in the parking lot.
I found a new usage of the boxe. Protecting the plane from crashing airplane during the indoor evening :-)

didn't you used to have a VPP Xavier?

Xavier

I had one but never managed to make it work well, probably because I wasn't using good enough batteries.
On the video, the motor is also pivoting from right to left with the rudder. I have that too but not combined with the VPP. It still make some funny flying. I'll bring it next Tuesday.
