Thats really cool Darrell! :good:

Some cracking views from up there! So what is the range of your plane?? It looks like the plane flew miles :)

Superb quality Darrell, at about 3mins 40 secs the shadow of your plane looks like the Starship Enterprise.

Thanks! I can fly out about .75km before the plane gets uncomfortably small. Next up in my quest is to add an onboard video tranmitter to a ground station to let me fly from the planes view.

Wow that would be cool to be able to fly the plane from seeing what the plane sees!! You will get some great views!
Thats a cool bit of kit you have there  :good:

Crumbs Ian if Darrell is flying the starship enterprise we all better hope a Klingon Bird of Prey doesn't uncloak behind him  ;)

Nice one Darrell.  :good:

The quality of the picture seems to be getting better with every video. I love the idea of the video transmitter, although to be honest I thought that was how you did it already. With my eyesight after about 30ft I would loss sight of the damm thing.
