Cool video, thanks for posting.

FWIW I just clicked the link and after a couple minutes it started to play without hassle.

Ok, I've got my asbestos suit on and I'll wade in and see what happens. I'm only a new comer to the r/c hobby (less than one year) and probably less time in the video area. I've never posted to this forum before (I'm a lurker), but I have viewed alot of aerial videos and this one is incredible. One of the things that I noticed was not only the high definition but the lack of shake from the airplane that I see in so many of the other videos. Is there a shake reduction part of this camera that allows this, or is it done in a post production software program, or does this guy just have superior piloting skills?

Thanks for any thoughts and shared knowledge.

The reason the picture is so clear, is because it's a very expensive HDV camera that is strapped to the plane. They are video taping the scene rather than using a 900 mHz or 2.4 gHz radio downlink. The youtube version is compressed and resolution is more like what your are used to seeing.

It is also using little or no compression. Most uploaded clips are compressed considerably to help download quickly.

From what I can gather on the cue-air web site, (my japanese is rough) it is a commercial company that does aerial video for commercials, movies, etc.

The clip is still neat!

Is anyone else curious as to the massive shadows that play onto the nose of the aircraft as it is doing the loops? Somehow they have to have a camera mounted out in front of the plane to get that angle. On that size of plane it would have to be a fairly spindly affair for weight reasons. It looks to me like there is some kind of structure behind the camera out in front of the nose that is casting a big shadow as the loop is executed. I am baffled by the angle as it does not seem that any part of the aircraft would be in a position to cast those shadows? I have watched the sun angle carefully and tried to understand what is casting what shadow and have yet to figure it out?

What is the diference between the Challenger II from AMD (US$114) and the Challenger from KMP (US$ 289)

The links are.

AMD: http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=422_648&products_id=15584&osCsid=ee1604703517e558ef76d493e8b4e8c1
KMP: http://www.kmp.ca/product_info.php?cPath=36&products_id=145&osCsid=71093f3dd66bc127ded34b37dda036b2

In relation with the extra weight the specification of Cue Air Picture is similar. The plane (a Maxair Drifter is 2400grs)

Saludos

Cristian

The only difference I see is the size. The KMP model has a larger wing span.
