Went out to the big park to do some FPV, but it was so windy, I decided to land and let the flight controller do it. I added "Loiter" mode to a radio setting, took off again and flew for a solid total of 15 minutes! Switching to bigger props and longer arms really made a difference in flight time. I also recorded my HUD for the first time. Loiter was a blast. I didn't know you could move around while in Loiter mode. Nice.
