RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

I saw this video on Mythbusters and said it's about time! :eek: They showed what happens when a large car, a school bus and a small plane pass behind a large jet with it's engines at full throttle. ...

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

13BRV3, I saw that over on RCG (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=743878). It looks even more fragile than the DF though. However it is much cheaper. Below is the little bittiest RC...

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

I was just about to post this when I saw your update. Here (http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4191490/tm.htm) is the video link. That is Berry College (http://www.berry.edu) which is the largest...

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

I agree that with the right conditions the SAVS can fly very smoothly and get some nice video shots.


Which video are you talking about?

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

Clement7, I would say that opening shot was in reverse because it followed the exhaust trail downward. I couldn't figure out which shot was the SAVS. Firefly, I don't think the section you...

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

I didn't do it the best way because the edges of the blur were not feathered to blend with the focused area for the optimum effect. But here is a link to quite a few pages of AP images processed...

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

Howdy Clement! That was some great AP video! The pans were very smooth and didn't overshoot the stops which is common with remote heads. I had seen that creek video before but didn't know it was...

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

BB_DF, I would put a 5 LED array facing forward on each wing tip and a nose array which would make a huge amount of difference with orientation. That's the only way I've been able to fly the DF 100...

RE: NON-DRAGANFLYER / OFF TOPIC DISCUSSION

Yes that is very cool tend2it. So I guess the air created by that ducted fan passes over that curved surface and creates lift. I don't think those things would fly very well in any siginificant...

The Bergen twin turbine AP system is around $13,000 and can probably fly longer than batteries.
