During the week, I'll often fly for reviews and setup, or testing stuff - but at the weekend I like to just go out and fly for fun.  Sometimes with Rod and Jinx (who was on camera duties)

This wasn't a very planned video, Rod had printed a plane from some free plans on Thingiverse here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1659724

He never thought it would fly, so it was always more of a fun thing to try and seeing if he could print it.  The problem with it was really quite heavy, and the motor didn't have much poke, so it never got enough air flow over the wings and just stalled.

He's thinking about reprinting though, and I'll dig out a bigger motor as he's also nominated me as the pilot :)

Lots of fun, even though it didn't work.  We did go around and meticulously pick up all the little broken off pieces of PLA before we left.
