At Christmas time, Wendy got Ken a new electric plane.......not much more than a trainer, but with a little lightening, it appeared to come in as a fine early evening/early morning flyer.......

Well it has become just that, but more than that, it's become a way for me to show my friends at this site here, a little more of what the hobbyist in me can do and show more of my area.....I hope you enjoy.

The camera I just got today in the mail is a beaut !.....small as a finger, has 128 MB of onboard storage, has a USB charged LiPo for power, and best of all weighs only 20 gms.........all this, and delivered to my door from Alberta for the grand sum of $84.75....I think I did OK on this deal.........I have a link to the vid in our video section, but to avoid lots of clicking you can see it here........

Now that was cool!!  Cool

Ken, More!!!  Please!!

For an $85.00 video camera it takes great video!!
Can you post more info about the video camera?

Also, can you mount the camera looking foward so we can watch you buzz some golfers?  Grin

Shocked ooohhh a golf course!  it looks nice.  I wish I was out hitting the links right now.  Cool vid by the way.  I've always wondered what it would look like if I could mount a mini camera to a model airplane.  My brother in law put a nanny cam on a R/C car and drove it around.  I couldn't go very far from the receiver though without losing signal.  What type of camera did you put on there?
