RE: In-flight video of planes using a towed camera platform
I will be using a much thinner tow line so it wont be so visible. The foam plane beefed up with carbon fiber rods is an attempt to get the camera higher, away from the tow line. I am thinking if it is not so close and so parallell, the line wont be as visible. Thje last picture is a wide angle 120 degree video camera, tomorrow will be the first time I will get to test it out. Being wide angle, I think it will be easier to keep the tow plane in sight and will just make for better video. The beauty if the foam pool noodles is that the camera is well protected. Here are some pictures of the vehicles I have made to test. Anyone wanna bet which ones will work the best?
