  • how many mega pixels

  • 5 m.p.

  • It does not come with the plane... This motor was needed to get the extra weight of the plane up.

  • Pretty sweet flight! What is the make and model of the plane you flew?

  • A GWS Slowstick with Pontoons and Pentax camera mounted to it.

  • How much range does that have?

  • As far as you can see it... but you don't want it to get that far because it's to hard to tell if your upside down or not and wether it's going away from you or coming towards you.

  • Your video here inspired me to take up RC Plane flying. Almost 3 years later I've had over 10 models and fly almost every day! Thanks for the inspiration!

  • Fantastic!!

    Great job piloting and landing on the water. I'd be very nervous about all of the radio and video gear near the water. A dunking could be costly. What kind of precautions do you make with waterproofing? or do you have to take your chances with the water? One more thing, though... I wish we got a view of the plane you built.

  • Great video. Thanks for posting

  • Someday I'm gonna travel west of the Mississippi River.

    When I do I'm going to make sure that I do at least a little nude hiking in Lake Powell's canyons.

    See if I can find me a nude houseboat party with some of the nudists/naturists that live out near that way and do me some exploring sans everything but some new sneakers.

  • oh my god i saw my houseboat in this video !!

  • I've finally found this video! This was one of the first videos I've watched on youtube around 4 years ago...yet it is still a joy to watch now, thank you.

  • Awesome flying site.

  • Brilliant using floats, taking off from the lake! I remember eyeing a GWS Slow Stick nib some years ago in wonder, as it was so cheap. The SS is larger than I once imagined and pleasantly dynamic

  • NICE !!!

    I just started flying Slowstick...

    Motor : KM02832R1

    Battery : 2100-2600

    Ge ~ 25-40min

  • The only thing that could have made this vid better is the top gun sound track.

    Otherwise - GREAT VID - one of my favs!!

  • Nice flying.

  • what canyon is this? near wahweap or further north?
