I don't mean to bust your chops...

But.

This file is 64MB in size and 8 mins long.

The first 3:30 is spent adjusting the engine.

The remainder of the flight is standard ovals... turn left, turn left.
Aerobatics? I saw one roll.

Ends with a nice, smooth landing.

Was this the maiden flight? If so congratulations - the plane looks great, flew smoothly and appeared to be in trim.

Man, you guys are brutal. Without knowing anything about his pilot skills, lets cut him some slack. For all we know, he may have only been flying for 6 months. As for the camera work, ok you win that one.

You guys want to see someone starting to wring out the edge with a BME50? I think I have enough footage to make one..

What a bunch of jerks these boards produce.. I do admit the camera guy was pretty lame, and ya that was like it's second flight...I was in no hurry...

Mokken, I could tell you were very proud of your plane. Great job!

You presented an example of your joy and others act like they had to pay to watch it. The French got nothin' on us.

As I mentioned - I wasn't trying to bust your chops. Lots of folks browse these threads over dialup, and I wanted to let them know what they'd be viewing if they downloaded your video.

If that makes me a jerk, so be it. <shrug>

If you are browsing the internet on Dial-up then you are either to far from a C/O to get DSL or to cheap to get it. In any case, most people have DSL and for those that have dial up, I'm so sorry...next time don't download it.

I posted the video for people to see the plane fly not to show off my flying skills, and not once did I mention anything in the original post about seeing it do anything. I'm glad you are a not a member of my club as we have many members that trailer there 10k carden aircraft and enjoy just hanging out and flying no matter what a persons skill level is. People like you guys that say "show us skills, not just flying around" are people I look forward to avoiding in RL.

And my club wonders why no one shows up for events, and why the field is empty alot of the time. I can feel this guys pain, if you don't mean everyone elses standard than why bother?

I did not watch the video, but if I had, I may have commented to myself about it's quality, but not flame the poor guy publicly about it, I mean c'mon...Let's see some of YOUR videos...

LOL,

I can't believe JohnVH edited my post.

Believe me, I'm not usually one for throwing around abuse.

However, certain people deserve a flamethower post in return for their trolling.

Please continue the videos, cause I am one of the many people who make the jump into large and/or 1/4 scale aerobatic planes from 40 size putters, and I can tell you your video will stay on my HD.

BTW, I do not believe in unauthorized distribution of videos without permission

hehe...give the video to whoever...

I have a lot more videos prolly around a 100 of people flying various planes. Getting a good look at a plane on the ground and in the air is always good if someone is interested in buying one, you don't always have to see snaps and hammer heads to make up your mind that the plane is worth buying or not, and I'm in this hobby for the pure fun not for others to be impressed by my flying skills.
