So, I cashed out on Steem and bought some toys. The first new toys were Mini Talon FPV V-Tail airplanes.
The first one I went with an 80s skate theme.

I took this one out to the beach and it flew exceptionally well.
I was so impressed with the durability and flight, that I started building a second one with long range capabilities.
This one is stacked with a crossfire receiver, 700mw 2.4ghz VTX, and a Matek F405 Wing FC.
The Pepperbox equipped ground station should get me well passed the 5 mile threshold.
The talon can carry massive 4S batteries. I currently fly a 4S 5200mah battery and it will go well passed 30 minutes without much effort. The Mini Talon cruises at around 40 mph.
It handles 15 to 20 mph wind pretty well.
I'm honestly also thinking of cashing out Steem and building an fpv drone because DJI decided to ruin my current drone.
If you need help converting steem to cash, message me. I lost a ton of coin figuring out the process.
The best way which works for me is by converting Steem to BTC through blocktrades.us and selling the BTC through Finnish site called bittiraha.fi
