Onboard Raptor 30 Video

This is just a quick test flight with my 5in1 eDVR camera on my Raptor 30. I basically wanted to see how much the exhaust smoke would interfere with the video during hovering and very slow forward and sideways flight in a small area. Didn't see much smoke at all, but it was also pretty windy. The wind was carrying the smoke away from the helicopter. I would imagine on a calm day the smoke would be an issue during hovering at lower altitudes. Next time I'll also have to move the camera further forward on the canopy as it's covering about 1/4 of the screen in this vid. Unfortunately, the battery died 5:17 into the vid. :( I'll do a longer vid once it warms up a bit with some forward flight.
