FPV Flight with HK Bixler RC Glider on a Stormy Day. Tested FatShark and 5.8Ghz 20 360M

This time we flew on a Stormy day. Had issues with the direction home on the OSD because I didn't realize the model was actually drifting due to the strong winds.

excelent video........how do you manage to do/have a little 2nd video playing in the corner of the screen,aswell as the main screen..id love to do that with my flying clips..well done for the great clip

@rickydmax I did that on a Mac using iMovie but you can also do that on a windows machine using Adobe Premiere using two timelines both synced together

You where going side ways from the wind!? what a ride! good job bring it in! where to buy goggles that do not break the bank? great job guys!

@soldier53flyer1 We got our monitor from ebay

[BMSWEB]

@soldier53flyer1 Thanks I have an idea on Goggles that could do the trick. Just waiting on some gear from ebay first.

@BMSWEB Wow, that's amazing..! I thought it would be way more than that...

Thanks.

Ciao.

@WarblesOnALot Well without the OSD I would have said I was a kilometer away :) I never knew how close we actually fly. Mind you at 360 meters away there is no way you can tell what the aircraft is doing visually. Some longer range flights soon :)

@BMSWEB where can I get a Monitor for $50.?

like this FPV-Flight video! 

[JollySwagman2006]

another great video Paul and Thomas, pretty blustery conditions too

[WarblesOnALot]

@BMSWEB Yeah, perspective is tricky. At a Km y' probably couldn't see the Plane...(?). Keep up the good work. I used R/C to get my kids to have fun understanding Aerodynamics, without wanting to sit in the bit that crashes...(I'm an Ultralight-ologist that grew out of the phase... Search '1975 Skycraft Scout', or 'Autodidactic Test Flying' to see those doings).

Ciao.
