Howdy people!

Maiden flight time then, for my Aton The weather wasn't super, as you will see but at least it was better then I've seen this year so far
Let's see how the quad does!

Howdy peoples

update time about the Aton! Today I did me a test-run to see what the aerial-footage with the quad is like..
Mine obviously does not have a gimbal, so the test was really to see if there was a lot of yello or vibrations in the footage....

Howdy people

time to have a look at this Aton quad as an FPV platform then..
This is the FPV set I used on it: Aomway camera + backpack

It took me all of 5 minutes to install it on the Aton..

Soooo.. what does that look like?

And.. a bit of random flying in sports mode (and in the COLD )

Time to put the Aton through it's paces then.. I've done an Aerial-videography & FPV video by now.. Let's just throw it around this time
