I modded the airplane so that the X-Port can power the video camera. The camera now weighs much less (without batteries) and so it can go much higher. I also upgraded the battery to an 8 cell. This is the highest I have flown with this airplane. It took about 8 minutes to go as high as it did and then took 8 minutes to glide back down to the ground. A few times the engine cut out because it was getting out of range. The camera lost power about 30 seconds before I landed. On the way up I flew with some hawks that you can see if you watch closely. I think about 5 of them were circling because of the farming work going on near by stirring up the mice :-). I got up high enough to see the Columbia and Snake (if you look closely) rivers. I used a 5v linear voltage regulator from an old hub, a floppy power connector from an old pc power supply, and a dc plug from an old portable cd player to make the power adapter for the camera. Next I am going to add a magnetic fish-eye lens to the camera.

Finnaly, a 3D Hobby Shop 85" Katana GAS POWERED!!! Hi, this is me flying my new 3D Hobby Shop 30% Katana. I did not do anything fancy as I just got it and am still playing with it before I do some serious 3D with it:) But anyway, I just landed turned it around and took off again in the video, sorry for the camera blurr, I don't really know why it didn't want to focus on the plane, so that is why I cut the video where I did (because the rest of it was even more out of focus). Like I said, this is me flying the Kat, and my dad took the video. I plan on posting more videos of this plane on youtube, and getting a better, closer up video of it, as well as some videos of me flying 3D with it! And PLEASE rate and comment! But ok, here is what you all really might want to know about the setup.... 3D Hobby Shop Katana WingSpan: 85" Wing Area: 1340 sq. in.
