Winter FPV Meet - Mad Dogs and Englishmen

[CurryKitten]

Looking forward to all the videos.  I didn't get anything particularly exciting off my quad flights, but I loved watching what the rising sun hitting the mist did to the video.  It looked like half the sky was completely on fire

Chipped away at a video on n off throughout yesterday and uploaded it last night.

I knew I'd shouted "trees trees" in time, I was sat there in my Fat Sharks happily watching away thinking "he's certainly coming in close here". 

Gav is that my AXN in your video, or Krikeys do you know ?  You had some fantastic angles using that gimbal of yours.

Nice video as well Aitch - do you have any footage of when you thought it was in RTH but actually was in manual mode ?

I have to say despite the mid air cheers Davey :-*, I really enjoyed myself and was fun editing up the video.

Aitch your hex was cool and I liked your name on your fpv transmission lol.  Also enjoyed your video - interesting to see from your point of view.

Quad will be fine.  Really pleased I used plastic screws and hex pillars on the gimbal, as they saved the plates from getting snapped.   

Not sure whos plane was whos on the video Wayne appart from the one stuck in the tree lol.  edit  oh yeah and the one that took out my quad   ;D

[DaveyLC]

Glad you can sort it relatively easy :) I wasnt too concerned about the wing due to it being laminated in invincibility lol :D

I wonder if I was actually flying FPV whether the outcome would have been different? As you said to me at the field in the Video you see my pull-up into the quad, but as we all know when flying LOS you see an obstical your first reaction is pull up as most obsticals are connected to the ground :D and that would have been right about the time that everyone shouted at me "Watch out for the quad" followed by the most horible hedge strimmer-esque noise I've herd for a while!

Was there audio on the original FPV footage? :)

[Flyboysee]

What an idiot I am. I posted my vid in the FPV section. Perhaps you should all move your vids there, or post in both (is that okay Ian) because people who aren't connected to this thread won't see them. And frankly, they are too good to go to waste.

Here's mine MPX Twinstar FPV Maiden at Mad Dogs HD

I didn't really get any amazing video, but I pulled theses snippets together anyway.  Silly me, YouTube told me my account wasn't in good standing anymore for using a Muse song.  So that audio was hastily replaced and here's the Vimeo link who seem less fussy
