Lucky last flight of saturday's session. Some parts look like slo-mo... it was very windy. Runcams had a hard time in this light, on the owl plus it looked pretty much the same.

(I should mention, that I know how to use Google Earth. I'm just curious about what you look for, how you go about determining if the property you find is ok to use, etc.) Maybe someone would make a tutorial thread or something...

You're one of my favorite pilots to watch based on a combination of the spots you find, the way you fly, and the fact that you are here on intoFPV :p Some of those moves great, I might have to see if I can learn them if you don't mind... especially some of the roll/flip sequences. I am in a point of learning where I am trying to repeat things that I see in videos [about 20% of the time I can learn it, the rest I still need work on like the The Kerni invertet head wag (featuring name by sloscotty)] carl.vegas Current Quads: Operational: Diatone GT2 200 In need of repair: Bumble Bee, tehStein, Slightly modified Vortex 250 Posts: 1,149 Threads: 50 Likes Received: 704 in 450 posts Likes Given: 1,189 Joined: Sep 2016 Reputation: 30 (27-Apr-2017, 09:39 AM)Carl.Vegas Wrote: Great video fftunes.
