This FPV version is a glider hybrid with high aspect ratio wings and added winglets to minimize drag.
Finished version uses 2 batteries and should fly for around 10mins based on testing.

Revived Bottle Boat. Using Furibee quad to provide FPV: you could call it a modular setup where the camera can actually fly away from the deck of the boat.
Red propellers provide reverse function via separate FC board and controller.

Night flight with the new straight wing version.
Note: The low battery flash rate is much slower than the un-bound flash rate shown here. Hence the tail lights to maintain visual contact in the dark.

Checking CG location on 3 different models. The CS - (straight leading edge). The original C-1 and the C-6. The "44" under the wing of the C-6 means the fuselage is 44cm like the original C-1. Some of the other C-1s were built with 40cm fuselages.

Back in the hangars for repairs after successful-yes, successful testing of aerobatic modification. We can now do programmed barrel rolls and loops.

This will test the performance of a straight leading edge versus the swept wing. Also will have the directly under wing mounted motors. I've been speculating if this is the single factor why the C-1 outperforms other versions in vertical manouvers.
