Skysurfer X8 flight review. Lovely model that works well for powered flight and gliding. I would swap motors for something with a threaded 5mm shaft for less vibration.
Runcam Thumb on the tail did not upset the performance at all.
CG at 65mm
Flying weight with 2200mAH 3S = 800g
2212 2450kV motor with 5x5" prop
