Title: Flite Streak Ride Along
Post by: Elwyn Aud on May 19, 2008, 04:09:56 PM
Wanna take a ride on a Flite Streak through a quick and crude pattern?

The video quality from the rinky-dink little camera is pretty bad but it's still a neat ride.

Gotcha! Thanks! I tried a screen capture from the middle of the square 8 just to compare the quality between the compressed youtube video and a still out of the original.

The view towards circle center makes me dizzy!! n~ n~

There is a video on Vic Stunt of a CL plane in flight with the camera looking froward, through the prop. 
"Pilot's eye view", I guess.  Pretty neat.

Thanks for posting.

Cheers,
Jim

That was fellow clubmember Bob Reeves' video using a much higher zoot(and heavier) camera. We did several videos a few years back. Some looking forward, some looking back, and one looking at a clunk fuel tank to watch how everything moved around in the tank during a pattern .

Now you have me so dizzy and confused I may not be able to stand up for a day or two.  Great shots.  Took me awhile to get caught up on the pattern.  DOC Holliday

I left out a few level laps just to shorten things up a bit. It still took 40 minutes to upload on to Youtube.
