Default RE: Turnigy H.A.L. (Heavy Aerial Lift)

My first hover test with the NAZAfied H.A.L. was a success! It hovered in place with only a few trim clicks. I mean it stayed put until I told it to move around with the sticks! I literally put the transmitter down and picked up the camera for a few photos. They came out dark due to the pending rain. I kept the H.A.L. low because my backyard has a 20' canopy of trees.

I thought my old Enerland 5AH packs may be weak because the light kept flashing red. It turned out that my voltage alarms were set too high so we'll see what happens on the next flights at the park.

The red landing gear area and green props are the front of the quad. When I switch to the all black Graupner e-props, I'll only have the landing gear for orientation so I may need to add something else.
