Hi All,
Here is a video shot with my new GoPro Black Edition, its temporarily mounted to my frame. The castle in Okehampton is the largest in Devon but is in ruins, such a beautiful day.

Very nice. Is that on 5.8ghz video? How was it flying in and around the castle?  And how did you know when you could safely fly up without hitting trees as you came out of the river?

Very enjoyable. We want more!

Cheers Rick, yes the video is 5.8Ghz, the link stayed rock solid while I was in and around the castle as I was so close I think and the Skew's helped a lot, it flickered a bit while I was flying along the river and I managed to get out of those trees because my FPV cam is facing forwards and not down so I could see the diagonal gap between the trees but I got very close on the right side...just added to the buzz as I cleared the trees. The first time down that river you can see I am searching for a way out because i'm getting far away from myself, that was a tight squeeze from my point of view  ;D
