I would label that as an excellent maiden flight with that new beautiful flagship, Holco! Doesn't look like it needed much to tune her in at all. What is the all up flying weight of that beast?
Flight time was impressive for such a heavy ship, too!

Liked your approach to the whole project, take the time, don't rush, do all the calculations, "measure twice, cut once" approach. Really pays dividends at the end.

I expect to see some excellent vids comming out of your camp this summer!

Tell your camera man I really liked his hat.

Thanks:)

Out of the box the GPS hold is really rock solid, the rest needs tuning for sure.
Don't know the exact AUW but it must be between 8Kg and 9Kg, and we are happy to get 14 (probably more after tuning) minutes with an ambient temp of 3° and no pre-heated lipo's.
I will inform Pieter that you like to buy his hat ;)

Well, of course you are! Silly me. Must have had one to many last night, my appologies.
Always wanted to go to Austria, such a beautiful place!

Just to let everyone know: I just ordered a Kratos....Mario from Flexacopter sent me a quote for the whole tutti-frutti, and compared to a similar set-up, based on Cinestra or Droidworx, the whole package is more than competitive.

Now the sleepless nights are going to start....
