Third Time in the Air

The last batch of modifications helped!

Placing the battery further behind stopped the plane from being nose heavy and improved stability quite a lot.

Well, the first try was maybe a bit too tail heavy for a change:


So after a quick couple of laps the plane was (perfectly) landed, battery readjusted and put in the air again:


Around 9 minutes of flight time (2 minutes first round and 7 minutes second round) with a total of 7.3 Km of distance travelled all together.

And now: practice, practice, practice, collect some sensor readings for the autopilot and practice. Before the stereo camera mount gets mounted! :P
