Slope Soaring on Vacation.... Phuket, Thailand
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANFhHUaXeDY&feature=youtu.be
Come to Thailand for some slope soaring fun....
This was shot at Nai Harn on the Southern end of Phuket. We can only fly here about 4 months a year due to prevailing winds. Last Sat the skies cleared up and I was able to get some decent footage with a paraglider sharing the slope with me.
The aircraft was a custom 1.2 m (4ft) wing UAV with APM/Arduplane, 2 cameras with downlink, live telemetry, etc. Main camera was an ION Pro.
Enjoy.
