I've been in and out of RC since 1989 --- my 1st heli was a MFA Sport 500 (google it) --- in between full scale flying in the Air Force (AWACS), local MMA fights and my main hobby (drag-racing) my time for RC fell off over the years. In 2008 I picked it back up and with "retiring" from MMA stuff I have more time for RC... it's more expensive, but it doesn't hurt my face as much. LOL.

** I did an eBay + duct-tape setup on my TS2 to see if I would like FPV - I do. After purchasing a pretty expensive iCare ASW28 for a "primary" FPV rig I decided to back off a bit and pace myself with this sector of the hobby. My eBay FPV gear is boxed up --- and I decided to get better gear to learn on... (Multiplex Twinstar and EZ* --- who'da thunk it??)

Here we go:


* MPX EZ* (retail)
* Futaba 9CAP Super (RMRC)
* Futaba TP-FSM Synthesized Module (CANYON HOBBIES)
* Corona RPD81 (HK)
* LM 2.4ghz 500mw Vtx (NG HOBBIES)
* LM 2.4ghz Upgraded Rx (NG HOBBIE)
* Switching PSU (NG HOBBIES)
* KX131 (NGHOBBIES)

-- I am now waiting for a few "shop supplies" before I tear into this guy --- but I will go ahead and get the EZ* frame modded (per my specs) and airbrushed and hung up to dry while I wait for parts.

LRS has been ordered... but I have plenty to do before the LRS arrives. This blog is for documentation purposes only... not to get involved with the many pissing contests on the web regarding FPV.
