I wanted to record this plane with the original motor and prop before I attempted Derick Aquino’s sweet mod by swapping out the original motor with the Eflite 3000kV motor and the trusty GWS 5043 prop.

The tail-end view is from my (damn near vintage) 808-16 keychain cam with an 8″ optical tether, meaning the lens (wide-angle D-lens model) is fixed to the fuselage near where the rear wheel would usually go.

The camera is just too heavy for the stock plane to pull any decent loops, but I managed a roll or two. The weight actually helped it’s CG a little, but only for level flight… 😉

What do you think of this rearward-view? Should I send the view back to the cockpit, or keep up this new angle?
