Hi chaps
I went out for a play yesterday and had the camera on taking pictures.  I'm quite pleased with the results (about 10 out of 250!) but that's the way it works - take a load and filter out the good ones.  Digital is our friend!

Here are a few for you to see.

looks like a nice day there, so what platform was the camera attached to?

Nice shots Rick

It was indeed a beautiful day Ben.  The plane is just my easy glider. I have a simple aluminium bracket which I put inder the wings which hooks across the fuselage so that once the wing is in place it can't come out again.  I can reverse it to go with camera right or left according to the prevailing wind.

Just set the camera on intervalometer on the chdisk and away we go!

No FPV on this flight just LOS and trying to get it to point the camera towards the city centre most of the time.

Good fun though!

Brilliant shots there Rick, just goes to show what results you can get without spending a tonne of cash on expensive airframes or FPV equipment
