Hi guys,
I'm looking for an FPV platform that I can use at my camp at on a lake. I have a piper cup on floats but thats out of the questions since it's a beauty. I'm looking at this plane (EPP FPV) http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/...PP_Carbon_Fiber_R_C_Plane_USA_Warehouse_.html and than custom installing these floats http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4675 ... also I would like some kind of chamber to protect the FPV gear from water. Anyone know of anything like that? Thanks for any help!

That would make for some awesome footage!

Those floats are 600g all up, which is a fair bit of weight (not to mention drag!) to consider.

Have you thought about the Icon?

I don't know about the Icon. It's a cool plane but it's not really designated for FPV. I would really like the EPP FPV. I just can't figure out any floats to put on it.
