“Winter wonderland”
What a fantastic view over this winter wonderland…
“Resurrection”
I studied google maps over night to see if my last memories of the crash maybe match with a section of this huge spot. Micha also mentioned that the last thing he can think off was a wooden shack.  After a while I was 100% sure that I found the right place and decided to go back for another rescue mission today. First I found nothing and so I went to the place where I initiated the last turn to fly home. Up from there I walked to the spot I found at google maps as the crow flies.
“R.I.P. Caipi 3”
We went to a wonderful new spot today right at the mountains. At my first flight all of a sudden I got a broken radio signal one mile away and the Caipi crashed. For hours we went through deep snow trying to locate the wing… but no success. The ground station recorder was in locked mode and so it didn’t record the GPS data. Rest in peace Caipi!
“131 km/h”
Maiden flight with my new TBS Caipirinha and a complete new setup. My standard Caipi is really fine havin’ an incredible battery life but on the flip side of the coin it’s slow and out of fun on windy days. Equipped with the new TBS Core Pro, Turnigy D2826/6 with a 8×5 eProp and the SkyWalker 40A ESC I got the hell of a ride today finally speedin’ up to 131 km/h! Battery life is still ok with up to 15 minutes.
“Harvestin'”
We just wanted to have some fun deep divin’ around the hay bales… Â and then the farmers came!
“Church bells ringin'”
We used our 5.8G tracker at the new spot and threw the WingX after a longer break into the air. After 2km the video link became pretty poor what is surprising as we have normally a range up to 10km. Switched to the 2.4G tracker and Boscam 2.4G TX and… perfect picture by flying long range! We crossed a nice village and almost could hear church bells ringin’ 🙂
“Comin’ home”
We discovered a fantastic new spot with everything you can dream of as a fpv pilot and  even can park the Landy right next to our base camp. Been there three days in a row and no single human showed up. This is like paradise!
