Thanks for the video.... one thing I'd like to add for everyone who takes videos of their planes. Our wonderful video cameras, (both analog tape and digital) all have a wonderful feature called autofocus. This is just fine when you are taking pictures of relatively stable objects such as an Easter Egg Hunt... however... when you want to take videos of R/C planes, turn the autofocus OFF and set the focus of the camera to infinity...(can't find the little symbol)... when you do... everything beyond 15 feet or so will be in focus and stay that way. This is what causes the blurr when the plane starts to turn or is changing it's distance from the camera quickly. Gotta get back in the shop...

take care,

Dan
