Hi Keith,

Yes it's all rocks and bumps around here. And heather too thank goodness, otherwise bad landings would be even worse  :lol:
To make matters harder, the hills tend to run WSW/ENE and so what is supposed to be the prevailing winds run along the hills rather than up them.

There is lift about, with all those bumps there has to be, and I think the electric motor to get up there to start with will be a great benefit.

That was literally the first flight.
The second flight, (and the third) without the cam, went better.
I had the cam right up on top, sticking up like a barn door, and I think it was a big drag and also fouling up the airflow to the pusher prop.

Sunbathing?
Oh yes, summer  :lol:
I remember now.
Seems a long time ago.
Mind you, there are a couple I wouldn't mind.....  :oops:  :oops:

Frame rate is 30fps.
It will do 60fps at 1080HD, and if you take the rate back to 30 in the file, by changing the header info, you get smooth slow motion.  8)
So I'm told  :lol:

Next flight leaves when the weather clears a bit, and when I've repositioned the cam lower down and nearer the nose.
And re-ballanced of course.

Sorry, didn't realise you could put Vimeo vids in a post as well as YouTube.

Oh, not working...
At least, not working in preview.
What am I doing wrong? :(

Happy Days:
I tried to get a Vimeo vid into a post last week and it didn’t work either. :cry:

 I think you just have to put the link in the post Ron.

Hi,

For the Vimeo videos, you need to enter the following string before the video id :


--- Code: ---http://www.vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=XXXXX


--- End code ---

Et voila :)

Ron:
Still can't make it happen.
Code entered:
<Open square bracket>youtube<close square bracket>http://www.vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=18366691<open square bracket>/youtube<close square bracket>

where <open square bracket> = [ and <close square bracket> = ]

Here it is:
