I have you do the "Hover Catch" Video. You seem to have it down pat better than I have .[/QUOTE]




that sounds interesting....very interesting..got to fly a little tonite.been a few days due to some much needed rain.didnt fly the katana this time,little choppier than i was comfy with.did remaiden my ssx and it did very well,now i can sell for 3dhs funds one of my good buds lost his huge stinger tonite,so a moment of silence is warranted.it was bad ugly i hated it....

Olin, I should strap the rig on you and then we can egg each other as I have you do the "Hover Catch" Video. You seem to have it down pat better than I have .

I leave the clinics to you,but one thing is for sure,if we flew together it would be a wild time ,and we'd both go home with tooth picks at the end of the day Olin

Yep... I have no doubt about that one .

... there is method to the madness after all .

I like the "semi-transparent" overlay, especially when with the "side-solid" the plane flies "behind" the transmitter out of sight ("Harrier Up2" video).

I assume?? the two cameras are mixed post-shoot, and Inn has no live monitoring of your Tx camera ?

That is correct. This is a home rig after all .

It works very well !

What kind of cameras are you using?

And in one of the videos, forget which one, we finally get a glimpse of Inn, ("hiding") under a big hat and behind the camera

It appears that she's using some kind of "body" tripod ?

And on a completely unrelated question, did you start off using flight simulators? ... use them at all now?

And another unrelated question, how did you hook up with 3DH? .. Do you fly in 3d contests? .. get noticed that way?

Sweet flying and wing tip catch Ben!!!

BoneDoc,Ben,I'm sure you were placing bets wondering how long it would be once i saw the topic before I posted a video It's the only thing I can do,so any time I see talk about it I can't help myself.Olin

Coo, we've already seen it. Do a search. That's why I don't post such videos in the RCGroups video forum, I get tired of those guys trying to sic the AMA on me.
