Whew! This looks like a fun plane. I have it all ready to maiden, just haven't had a nice enough day to toss it in the air yet.
Running a stock power train on 7" triswith a Matek 405 WSE and a DJI AirUnit. Also running a Runcam 4K up front.

Hay there did you have any issues with your air unit overheating? My buddy has the same setup and a air unit in the nose with the gopro hole open and still had the unit blackout on 25mw. We are thinking overheating.
