alanhinsaudi Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Some video I took today. I need to adjust the camera up slightly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_b Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Nice video and I personaly think the camera is ok as it is ,there are a lot of videos out there that have a lot of plain sky in them Its better to see a bit of your self/kit at the bottom. Regarding the revolution, after taking off just park the brakes and use weight shift or/and stabilo lines to control direction (even on full slow trim) the revo is stable on full slow without brake input. I used full slow on most of the tip to tip with out using the brakes just tip steering now and then. Pete b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon_dunn Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 What a contrast to flying in Ireland..... Getting good weather is bad enough for us, but this time of year flat, dry ground is very scarce... Regards, GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coggie49 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 It must be lovely for Alan to fly in all that sunshine but the beach is a bit big for me (to much sand), I like to see a bit of grass under my feet, so i'll go to Ireland instead. I'm with Pete B, I think the camera work is OK and a good choice of sound track. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanhinsaudi Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 I'm going to the east coast this week and hope to get some flying in and I'll take some video if I do. It will take your breath away! Thanks for the flying tip Pete I'll give it a try next time up. Best regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanhinsaudi Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 If anyone is interested PM me your address and I'll send a dvd with the complete flight (Free of charge), including the sh***ty landing. The quality and detail is far better. Best Regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helimed01 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I Alan. What camara set-up are you using? Looks very wide angle lens and good quality. I know nothing about video camaras buy ther way. I do a fair bit of flying but only shoot the odd still pic. Your excellent vid makes me want to try some movie pics here in sunny Cornwall. Anyone know anything about the camara set-up on e-bay; is it a "buy cheap buy twice" thing? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PARAMOTOR-ATC-200 ... 286.c0.m14 Regards. Whitters.

alanhinsaudi Posted October 12, 2008 Author Share Posted October 12, 2008 This is the camera I'm using http://www.dogcamsport.co.uk/dogcampro520.htm and I use a Sony handycam as the recorder. You can get different lenes for the dogcam but I use the standard 3.2mm. The quality is excellent but is lost on youtube. As stated above, if you want to see the actual quality I will send you a dvd with a couple of flights on it. (any comments/recommendations on my flying would also be appreciated) Best Regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
