how do you guys normally capture the flight videos?
If I don't have someone else to film for me I use an adjustable phone mount I mounted to a hat. It takes a bit of doing to get everything in frame (and you have to set the headband tighter than usual) but it's pretty natural once you get used to it.

Thank you. It flew even better with a 4S battery.

A query, how do you guys normally capture the flight videos? I'm planning on getting an Action Camera such as a GoPro. Does that work for videotaping the flight? The video I uploaded was taken on a friends iPhone, so was a bit of a challenge.
I am fortunate enough to fly with my father most of the time so usually we'll have one fly while the other films. I have seen a few guys use hat mounted phones and cameras but it does take some getting used to.

I finally got around to posting a short flight video for "Wild Bette"! Unfortunately with college and winter coming up we will most likely not be going back out anytime soon. Cant wait for next year!

Did some painting and detailing over the weekend. Had a few areas of paint peel when removing masking tape so few errors to correct the next time.

I recently got a 3d printer. So - what to print first? Mmm - I have a Master Series P47, so why not a radial engine?
I've downloaded the files from the first post if this thread and hit "print" - seems to work. Amazing!
Huge shout out to ZOHIO for sharing the files. I'll fit it this weekend...
