Proof it does Fly

Today, I am sharing the first of two videos taken during a recent short flight. Thanks to my neighborhood Fox Cameraman (thanks Phil!), we hooked up a couple of HD GoPro cameras and went for a short test flight (well, I did and he had to wait on the ground). One on the tail tiedown mount which I am posting today. The second one I will upload later was from inside the cabin and shows all the fancy electronics at work.

To say you the displeasure of a long video, this one has been sped up to double speed to condense the time. Enjoy!

 

And here is the second video from inside the cockpit. This one is at 4x speed as it includes taxi and run up time as well.

    Love the videos. I was over at UAO on Saturday (took the written exam for Private) and asked around about you, thought I might catch you on the field. Val from Aurora Aviation showed me where your hangar is and mentioned that he heard you on the radio saying “This thing is awesome!”

    Hoping to hop over to Aurora (I’m flying out of Twin Oaks) and catch up with you one of these days to see the finished product.
