A Very Stable FPV Platform

In dead calm conditions I flew the "used" Firebird Stratos from eBay with the 1600 mah battery. The very slight extra weight of that battery allows the plane to track very precisely. Next step will be to attach the camera. I suspect that I will have a very stable fpv platform with this combination. For my transmitters I'm going to try the new AA low self discharge nimh rechargeable batteries. So far, I have only been able to buy these online. I got 20 on Amazon. I'm still trying to locate Oxyride low self discharge rechargeable nimh batteries. Battery Joe's does not have anything like this in stock yet. As far as I know the Oxyride technology is proprietary to Panasonic.
