LOS Pilot via. FPV - Something I've always wanted to try!

LOL, awesome. Well done guys.

Awesome video, well done with both video feeds and the voice recording on the ground really made it special.

And the tandem landing was awesome too, props to Krikey for following through and not bottling it and CurryKitten for chasing so well.

The skill was really CKs being able to follow me so well. As long as I could see my plane, I could fly it easily enough. The AXN is also a very forgiving one  to fly as you can pretty much fly hands off for brief periods.

Very kind - but that's far too much credit given to me.  A great combination of well matched planes, quite calm conditions (aside from the rain) and krikey is getting excellent at calling out his turns well in advance (except when he shouts thing like "I'm going to this" and then inverts and loops away).  I'm not as use to being lead plane, so I tend to call things a bit late, so krikey will say "where did you go" and I'll say "Ii turned left"... this is far from ideal :)

That was great fun to watch, and very inspiring , I'm going to have to try that one day ,
thanks for sharing

FlyBoySee mentioned at a recent Mad Dogs meet that we should try flying FPV from a three plane stack, so for example, the front pilot flys from the middle pilots footage and the middle pilot flys from the rear pilots footage. The rear pilot flys FPV from his/her own footage too.

We've successfully flown 5 planes FPV in a stack before and kept sync, so how hard can this be?

This adds a new dynamic to the equation that I'm not sure will work, but it might be fun trying.

That explains the mandatory lost model alarms then.
