https://youtu.be/ZOLrjuK2YL4 Like I threatened to do earlier, here is some "home movies" that you must sit through until the engine quits.
It at least gives the viewer a taste of the commotion that an "Old School" 1/2A combat flyer saw. Add another plane and it was plenty hectic.
Once the Cyclon came out, flying on these 35 foot lines was ridiculous and the quality of the matches suffered, so the lines were lengthened to 42 feet.
The video quality seems better than the last time I used the camera. This is the first attempt at filming a flight since I opened up the optical chamber and cleaned the lenses on both sides. It still isn't the same as shooting RC, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.
