This is one of the first test flights with FS Co-Pilot, Flight Recorder and an Angle of Attack sensor.

Gas Helicopter Flight , File size: 476K)
This is a Voyager G23 gas helicopter flight. This helicopter has a difficult installation because the spark plug is located inches away from the receiver.
