Cheetah XLS Light Sport Aircraft Flight GoPro HD from Cockpit view

A winter flight of the Cheetah XLS, a light sport aircraft. Pay no attention to the prop, we intend to fix this in due time :-). The cheetah XLS is a new light sport aircraft in the United States. The aircraft by Rainbow Aircraft It has been around since about 2001and was developed in South Africa. This footage was done just prior to the Sebring show. From here, it only got worse. Besides for the bent prop, I think the gopro did pretty good for such a dark day.

Nice vid. I think the GoProHD does a very good job in lower light for its price range. The "bent" prop thing is just the nature of the beast...has to do with light, frame rate, shutter speed, prop speed, and the way many consumer video recorders actually record in 1080i and output in 1080p. Many low end still digital cameras will do the same thing bending helicopter rotors for example. But in bright light from the right direction that effect goes away.
