Many years ago I attempted to get video of one slope glider from another
using the guts of a wireless security camera, along with a receiver on the
ground to pick up the camera's transmissions, and a camcorder to record them. This large array of equipment would have delivered some great video...except that the picture cut out every time the plane got more then 30 feet away from the ground receiver.

So, cut to a decade later....ah, what a few years of technological
advancements and a $13 keyfob video camera can do!

You got some really god shots in there Brett! The lift was ok on this day, but I can't wait to do some more filming, hopefully we'll get a really good day soon.

We were definitely getting better as we went a long. Especially the part about 2:30 in, where you stayed with me for 4 or 5 runs.

Yeah, the lift kept better too, which made it a little easier. I'm home Sunday. Let's go fly.

I'm into trying to come fly with you guys on Sunday. What time, where, etc.? PM if you prefer.

Cool, we'll check weather, but usually the wind picks up between 3-4 in the afternoon.

That'll be perfect for my schedule as I currently understand it.

Steve

Cool. I'll send you a PM. Here's the hill...

Great, thanks Big Swede! Love the new tagline by the way... are you a master of all the "oriental" fighting forms? Sig really needs to update that line to get with the times... it's not 1984 any more!!

I'm going to try to get the video I have that show's a mid-air between my Impulse and a friend's Sailaire. It was a head on and because it was done with a security camera it's over in a nano second. Then the Sailaire. still intact manage's to video me picking up the piece's of my Impulse. I've never seen another video like this one.

Sounds cool prodjx...post it!

That video is pretty awesome! Tell us about your setup.

Very cool. Are you actually flying that through FPV? Do you have head tracking?

nice FP vid Daemon, as per!
