RE: Video Clips - kizza42 - 10-10-2010
The Flymentor only gets turned on when I lose orientation, and brings the heli back into a hover, other than that its just along for the ride.

Just thought I'd post this trailer of the latest installment of the LockOn/DCS flight sims featuring the A10 Warthog, Turn the sound up and definitely watch in full screen 720p

RE: Video Clips - paulj - 15-10-2010
Great trailer..
Almost makes me want to get out the flight sim again.
RE: [Steve Maiden of Yak 54] - popeyepete - 16-10-2010
Always liked the YAK, been also looking at it on HK. Gota have a look at your when next down at the park.
RE: Video Clips - ~KevJ~ - 16-10-2010

Hey Kev,
Maybe it's just me but every time you post a U-tube link
using your phone it does not open properly when I try to see it.
It comes up with a small list of u-tube videos but none of them are related to what you are
trying to send. Also if I try to watch any of them on the list I get an error message saying
"Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (rtsp) isn't associated with any program."
maybe others are having this problem too.
If you send a link using your computer it works as normal
RE: Video Clips - smuzz - 17-10-2010
Didn't work for me either Paul, I got a list of clips that weren't anything to do with a Bobby Watts. There was a clip which promised a naked Lady Gaga, but disappointingly it only had some bloke talking
RE: Video Clips - kizza42 - 17-10-2010
Fixed the link
RE: Video Clips - paulj - 17-10-2010
Thanks for fixing the link .
It was awesome. That was the most entertaining video of
a chopper I've ever seen.
Man, that guy could fly
RE: Video Clips - ~KevJ~ - 17-10-2010
Thanks for the tip mate I'm doing something wrong on my phone, he's awesome for sure that Bobby watts...
RE: Video Clips - paulj - 18-10-2010
Kev maidened his PC9 today and while I did not video it I did video
his second flight.
The clicking noise you hear is the sound of the tripod panning
as I tried to follow the action.
Will need to see if I can grease the head and get it to run quieter.

Wouldn't this freak out the neighbours!
RE: Video Clips - smuzz - 23-10-2010
Ha ha ha ha! That's very good Pete. I don't normally go for these "novelty" rc flying things, preferring planes to look like ... err ... real planes - but, that was funny and clever!
RE: Video Clips - paulj - 23-10-2010
very funny wish they had showed it land would have been awesome if it landed on it's feet

.. Hi Guys..
I haven't been able to get to the field or online recently... My wife and I have been hospital for 2 weeks, we had OUR FIRST baby girl!
She is AWESOME! 
GREAT simply non describable feeling.. Proud member of the FATHER club.. so far.. 
(Amelia Iannuzzelli - 2.6kg 5.7 pounds for the old scalers)Anyway,, whilst in the birthing suite with wife while in labor (a quite part) I couldn't RESIST capturing this footage of rescue chopper hovering for a landing above us.. Poor quality, but the angle was real hard.. The sound was louder than my wife Alison (LOUD) and the wind seemed to almost blow a tree over.. Totally respect what these guys do,, and the machines they fly.. Pretty sure this was one of the Westpac Rescue Choppers either the Bell 412 or the BK117 twin engine.
Nice Hover..

Hey Daddy, Congratulations!!!!!
You are right, there is nothing in this world like seeing your own child being born. What a miracle!
I saw all 5 of ours & I think I cried every time.
good to see you still have your priorities right....your wife in labour & you're filming helicopters! Well done.
Andrew.
RE: Video Clips - smuzz - 30-10-2010
Congratulations Rob - glad it all turned out well with that great magic trick only women can do!
RE: Video Clips - paulj - 31-10-2010

RE: Video Clips - ~KevJ~ - 31-10-2010

RE: Video Clips - samste - 31-10-2010

RE: Video Clips - paulj - 03-11-2010
Here is a video of what I consider some of the best formation
flying and FPV footage.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDm7ERLUbLQ&feature=player_embedded
Couple of times they got real close.
RE: Video Clips - gbanger - 03-11-2010
Very Impressed Paul
The guy in the rear was obviously flying by watching the image from the camera on a portable screen.
The real talent is the guy controlling the camera he has really got his finger on the pulse or joysick or whatever was panning and tilting the camera.
Smooth.
RE: Video Clips - kizza42 - 03-11-2010
It would have been head tracking goggles. They just put a gyro in the goggles and the camera follows your head movement. I do similar things with my flight & driving sims:

Its very natural when you get used to it.
HobbyKing now has the goggles, tx and rx kits for FPV, who's gonna be first in the club to drop the $800ish to do it?
RE: Video Clips - paulj - 03-11-2010
Much as I would love to have the gear to do it I don't
think my budget would allow it.
RE: Video Clips - gbanger - 03-11-2010
They sound like the goods Kieran
Bit to exy thou
I think I will stick to VRF for the time being.
Hey Paul
They might be good for the Columbia, might help keep the old girl from heading to Mascot ( No malice intended)

RE: Video Clips - paulj - 04-11-2010
You know what they say about space shuttles...............
The higher they fly the better.
RE: Video Clips - brotherblonde - 06-11-2010
Well, there was no flying this weekend (6 th Nov), but here's my latest from Last weekend.
Info for Gaz...I secured the heli much more firmly with self tappers in the front, and beefed up the rear of the mount where it "wedges" in, to make it much tighter. I also put firm foam at the tail end. Works a treat!

RE: Video Clips - gbanger - 07-11-2010
That looks heaps better Andrew.
Looks a lot smoother in the air.
Sounds like that nasty vibration has gone to.
Well done mate.
