Quick review of the flyingwings.co.uk Falcon FPV Wing. A small, 1m (40") wingspan wing made from EPP. A nice little wing that is good fun, but can be tricky to fly without stabilisation.
Excuse the microphone quality, thats next on my list of things to purchase!

I would not hesitate in recommending flyingwings.co.uk as the quality was excellent, I think I maybe just expected a bit much for a wing this size to be able to cope in stronger winds.

Have you already got any experiences with gyros or AS3X on a plane? Can you propably recommend any system?
I've been using some simple 3 axis gyro systems for 30$ but they sometimes stop working in mid air and I can't get the plane back in control ... not to comfortable ;)
