Superb flying, but you've got to give equal appreciation the continuity of the camera work and editing. Overall, the most graceful account of the RC experience.

This is the best R/C model plane video in the whole YouTube world. Beautiful seaplane model, great air-to-air camera work, and the music fits perfectly. Congratulations ! I wish you'd make some more, but I'm happy with what you've done
