Recently, I had the pleasure of making a video for Pacific Aeromodels. This is my first experience with movie editing (Microsoft Movie Maker) and I am learning a lot. I put the video up in the Sport Flying forum and got some very useful feedback. Now I have revised it, and I think it is ready for the big time (this Forum). Please check it out and give me your feedback. Too long, too short, too noisy, to quiet, more talk, less talk...? I can't do anything about the lighting, it was a really crummy day.

Thanks for your time.

Nice tight shots, not too long, nice fade aways, one of the better videos of a RC plane I've seen, A++
Only part I didn't like is when it went of to the left and far way about half way through.

Congratulations! A++ indeed. For such a small plane, you were able to keep it in centered and in focus with little camera shake. You have good equipment and you know how to use them.

Nice job I like it.

Excellent video. The absence of music was most appreciated.

Where can one purchase this model?

Ed:

I'm with you on that. The only music I want to hear is the engine. Seriously, part of knowing what is going on is listening to the changes in throttle settings as the airplane is flown through maneuvers.

Pacific's website is: www.pacaeromodel.com

Thanks to everyone for your comments. Any suggestions for improvement?

Great video, I hate watching videos where the camera is in auto focus and goes in and out of focus the whole flight one of the biggest blunders amatuer's do when they post thier video's on RCU. Should be standard practice if you are going to film something that is moving, just focus on infinity and follow the subject. Nice looking model , it looks a lot like a Piper Cherokee 140, bet it would make a good little float plane too.

Right. That will by my next project. Zee Doo or Modelfly(Falcon) floats and no water rudder. Trust me, it won't need one. Maybe I should add some float flying to the video.
