Nice Graham. Very smooth apart from a slight twitch on the roll axis. Maybe drop the P gain a couple of points to sort that out.

I agree with Lee, drop the P down a couple of points on the roll axis.
I see some definite oscillations there.
Nice flight though.
You got your FPV gear yet?

Nice flying there Graham, and putting the oscillations aside, that's an awesome surroundings you live in. Was that loch leven in the distance, railway track, fire station tower, there's everything...not to mention those mountains... I'm coming up there for a long weekend when the weather is better for flying....lol

Still very nice, at exactly 1:34 in the background it looks like a rail track. Still lots to see around there, what's that large building to the right of your house.. Looks like a school... .

Tony, at 1.34 that is locally called the viaduct and it is the downhill main road from Glencoe into the village:) The large building is the High school at 1.34 also:)

Nice, what video tx and camera did you get with the package?
You will love it, just remember, give yourself plenty of room and keep going forward.
That way you will at least see what you hit.

And for the first few flights, altitude is your friend.
Have you got a nice loud beeper on that quad?
It is very hard to know exactly where you are when flying FPV.
Do you have RSSI feedback to your TX?
I may have to do a video on finding a lost quad using RSSI.

Thats a lot of water to be flying next to. You know you and Tony have bad luck with water

A beautiful day though.
