And finally, flight video. The weather was so bad last couple of months that I just couldn't find 2 nice days for filming. The spring is here now and good weather with it. Enjoy the final video in this build series - Tarot FY680 - Flight Test.

Also, if you are wondering, I was bored during that time so I've installed remotely controlled LED's on the craft. There are 6 LED's, 3 W each. Four white ones and 2 red ones (on front arms). They are remotely controlled via Turnigy Remote Control Switch. Unfortunately, there won't be a video about this setup.
