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

I got some better photos today in the sun with my Graupner 10x5 e-Props. The 6mm-8mm Graupner adapter spacer (197.60) provides an excellent fit from my motor shaft to the prop hole.

I could easily maneuver between the trees and rotate 360 degrees in GPS mode. I haven't done my compass calibration yet so I am not sure where that will become a benefit.

I'm using a 4s 5AH Lipo pack on my 5.8lb quad. I have around a pound of ballast above my gimbal to balance the quad without the FPV camera setup. I am not sure of the actual capacity of these older packs but I got about a 5 minute flight before the flashing red lights gave me an auto-land.
