Mountain flying in New Zealand
So for the past 3 years I have crashed planes, attempted to build and repair them, until I found out about the Bixler...
I originally saw the Bixler on a flite test episode about a year ago and did a bit of research and so on. Then I finally brought one for about $100 NZ and basically learnt to fly of it and the FMS simulator plus help from the local club.
Now for some mountain flying.....
I am currently living in a different town than Taupo, where the great mountain Tauhara is based but I was there for a holiday and I convinced myself to attempt to fly the MT...
My friend (co equipment carrier) and me, set out for the walk up the relatively steep mountain until we reached a particular area, which would be suitable for landings.
The motor roared as I chucked the aircraft of the MT side and then flight...

No I am not using FPV I am just recording but I will be attempting to do some FPV in the near future.
I am using a turnigy key chain camera from hobby king, which you can find at the link below.

I actually might be going up their relatively soon to pick up a quadcopter and I might be posting another article about flying in an area near Auckland called Omaha.

I will be sure to attempt to work on my roll and pitch axis and yeah the environment is quiet nice to fly around NZ, I am actually getting into FPV so I can adventure the landscape a bit more widely and stay tuned for some more upcoming articles on flying around NZ.
