Videos: RC Flying

That is indeed a landing to be proud of. It seems I can only do good landings without the camera or when it is not turned on properly Frown!.

...yeah! that's what I'm talkin' about!
as well as upgrading the motor, I'm going to instal a hatch on top of the nose so I've got easy battery access & don't have to remove the wing every battery change. And will allow bigger battery (3.0 amp/hr &/or 4s as you suggest) to go with more powerful motor, faster flying, more duration... hang on... I'm getting myself excited!!
Here's another video... with the Lark out of action for a while, I maidened my California 28 Balsa Trainer.
Specs: converted from .25 Nitro to Turnigy SK 35-36 1400KV, 9X6 Prop, 40A Turnigy Plush ESC, Turnigy 3.0 20C Lipo, pulls 40A at WOT.[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62l33GVq_wk[/youtube]
P.S. good point Chris. I had thought of being careful about what's uploaded - but hadn't thought of the possible implications of this actual mishap.

This is a video from my Cessna 182 Foamie. Camera is pointing forward & down 45 deg, from a belly pod I velcroed under the fuselage. It acts as a skid on landing, but it does flick up dirt into the camera on landing. This footage is some sightseeing above the field.[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRrEE9xMmck[/youtube]

That's amazing Stephen.
How do you find distance perception is at night?

Distance isn't an issue i find i fly the same as i would if it was daytime as the lights are better for orientation and i gone if not further than i would during day.

I loving it as its superquiet the typhoon 2 3d and theres zero wind at night.

And the Leds are so unbelievably bright the You Tube clip does it no justice, its a must see in real flight.

Flight Time isn't reduced at all as the draw next too nothing.

Going to do Trojan T28 next.

Warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Residents report strange lights in the sky over Quakers Hill.
RAAF advise no military aircraft in that area but they did pickup some strange
echos on their radar.
Police advise that people are reporting their dogs and cats acting weired.
Unconfirmed reports that Qantas and Virgin Blue pilots do think they saw UFO but
are reluctant to lodge official sightings in case authorities think they are crackers.
Some people believe that it's a Tony Abbot ploy to upstage Julia Guilard although Bob Brown
believes it's just a load of hot air.

The Trees don't seem to be bothered about me Flying at Night.
No seriously They haven't said a thing to me.

No but Really i guess I'm Lucky That's were there's no issue as no Trees to contend With, and the trees that are about along the edges i stay well clear of, and you can see the silhouette of Trees.

But like i said Before seriously Its Lots Of Fun and a new Experience.
Enjoying It immensely.
As well you would be suprised that it looks great during the day as well as you can see them clearly on.

It was a really windy day on Saturday, about 10 to 20 Kts. The heli was ok but I was working like a one-armed paper hanger!

Some trail bike riders seem to think it's fun to tear up our field, here are a few aerial views of it. Frown

Field condition comes up well in that video.

and field is now in worse condition.
