This is my attempt to send a FPV glider into the edge of space and glide it back to earth via a video link.

    THIS was absolutely amazing!
    I don’t like this fish-eye lens though – one can’t see how high you really are…

    Hi David,

    Stunning, stunning images. Fantastic!

    Until now I had largely dismissed FPV as a novelty or gimmick but I am now, literally, seeing it through a completely different set of eyes.

    I can see that I will be spending the next few hours looking at your projects and researching how I can get into this fascinating aspect of RC.

    Thanks!
