    Thanks, it’s just twisting the wires. Then using black twist ties to add some pliability to the wires, so they stay neatly where I want.

    Still awaiting receipt of the Spironet FPV antennas.

    Nice, looks very tidy with all the sleeving. I haven’t decided yet which polarized antennae to go with. I do like the look of the Spironets though.

    First Flight went well this afternoon. Broke one tie-wrap on landing gear, but otherwise, uneventful. I found out that if you learned on airplanes like I did, the transition to the Tri-copter might be a tough one. Adding power to arrest the decent and slow down is weird to me. I ended up using auto-level to give me some help for now. Once I feel more confident, I’ll stop using it as a crutch. There was a slight breeze blowing and I was surprised how much wind can blow you around. Again, I’m from airplanes, so this is all new. I was VERY impressed at how David’s setting really worked great. Very stable and smooth flying (as long as I pushed the sticks the right way). This is going to be fun to play around with.
