That is just freaking awesome, man. Damn, that's so cool. What does your flying console look like? Do you fly it from inside or outside?
I fly from outside, I set up a tripod that hold two video receivers and two antennas.
The tripod, receive video from the plane, record it and retransmit to video goggle.
Plane is controlled via a regular model radio with an added UHF module that extend range to 50 miles or so.
Do you think it would be possible to do the same thing only in an RC Blimp?
So as you could survey over a few acres, and stay more stationary if wanted?
Do you think your cooling system would work at the slow speed, or when stationary?
Absolutely, you'll have to install a small PC fan to make up for the lack of airflow. Another option will be a tri or quad copter, where the prop wash could be use for cooling.
