Title: Lowest Inverted Flyby
Post by: FPVSteve on April 13, 2014, 08:17:45 PM
In the interests of stirring up some fun on here again I submit the following challenge.

You must do an inverted flyby while flying FPV, and get yourself in the picture on the camera (FPV or other cam, GoPro/Mobious etc). The closer to yourself (and therefore lower) the better.

MULTIPLIERS
x2 - Flying through a goalpost immediately after the flyby while still inverted :D
x5 - You place your hands in the air during the flyby so you are in effect flying "hands off" and we see it on camera :D
x10 - using a multirotor

No warranty or liability can be accepted for decapitation, mishaps or angry forum posts.

There are no prizes for coming last. Or first.

Anyway - let's get some vids going :)

This is my attempt(s). A bit rubbish as my möbius was pointing down (up when inverted). I'll have to try again.

That must be because the plane needs to fly nose high when inverted. If you adjust the camera angle you might find it hard to fly the right way up!

good point, although I have the möbius and a separate flight cam and it was better framed on the flight cam. The möbius is perched on the nose at around a 15 degree angle.

Ha Ha ... Brill! 

Maybe you could put the cam in a bit loose so when you're upside down it flops down a bit  :laugh:

This looked fun, so I had a try - I only had my K-quad with me, so it limited the length of time inverted and how low I was

The second attempt was slightly more interesting where I went faster and just smacked it into the ground :)

EDIT: Which is here

Great attempt, and I now want to revisit this and have another go. Thanks for resurrecting the thread!
