Homeslice 2.0 frosty morning joyride

Wind conditions this morning were exceptionally good for a balloon launch, with the predicted landing site being only 1km from the launch point, I wouldn't even need to leave this farm property! So I woke up early and got everything ready, only to find that (as I suspected) there was not enough helium left. It was worth a try I guess. So this is what I did instead. The plane is performing very well so far. It's a real bitch to launch and land, but also tough enough to handle the consequences...

This video has been slightly smoothed, but the original was pretty good to begin with. Flying in FBWA, a comfortable 45 minutes flight on 3S 5200mAh battery, with about 1/3 of that time at 8 amps (this video :), and the rest at about 5 amps.
