No Nano anything. You need something that can handle the extra load (weight) of your FPV gear. Just an 300mw vTx, camera, antenna and cable will add 80g min. Thats on a plane that is only 100g ready to fly. Not good.

You should look for a plane that is at least in the 40" wing span, 3s 2200 range. That size plane can handle the extra load.

Here is a great plane for FPV. Its a Sky Surfer PnP for $79. Just need a Rx, battery and a controller.

Here is a video of the Sky Surfer with a GoPro on it flying FPV

i still got stuff from my gutted F4U so i should be good on controlls and stuff.

however, i've had several RC planes in the past and none of them really did fly, so my dad wants to seewhatever i getfly in real life first, thats why i'm going to a swap meet.
