This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen

This guy built a functioning EFIS and head tracking cam in his FPV Super Cub on skis. I can finally afford to fly a Cub.

Looks very scandinavian. I am scandinavian, and I almost willing to bet on it being Norwegian. The low light is correct for the winter light in these parts. Also those small spots of planted sitka spruce is very typical. I hate that tree... It is invasive, spreads and grows fast, and it blocks out all the sunlight, killing off everything on the forest floor.

Anyway.

Mini-bushflying in an FPV RC plane is a really cool idea!

If someone wanted to really save weight on their ultralight, and had really good eyesight…
