Very cool.  So how far have you flown it away from you?  You getting a little more daring?

LOL....that was the topic of many conversations with Andy yesterday...

Today, I did fly 2800 m away from my launch location to get video of the closed amusement park.  That is as far as I have gone.    It was so close to National Park it was yelling at me.   

Net is I am getting more daring....but more slowly .   Seems I take my risks in other areas.  I wanted to see if I could get within 10 ft of the dam water gate....he told me that would be a bad idea.   LOL.   

Blown F-150:
Cool video. I really like the idea of the angles and locations you can get shots and video from with these things. Pretty impressive.

Kitzy:
2800m... That's almost two miles.  Definitely got me beat. 

Water is tricky.  I guess it has a tendency to trick the sensors so they don't realize how close you are. I think that's mainly still water though. But trying to fly by the video screen is weird because you can't get a good feel for depth perception or your surroundings.  And in this car unstable, one drop of water in the wrong place... Swimmin with da fishes.
