wavy video

[efly726]

Hello - just started taking aerial video. I'm using a 1.2 camera/receiver combo kit. Platform is a Trex SE with a Medusa motor and align ESC. The video is clear, for the most part, but there is a wave to the picture once the bird spools up and is in the air. Seems apparent that it's caused by motor interference. The camera antenna is clear of power wires. Is there any other option that will clear the shot? Longer antenna wire? Thanks in advance.

I have seen video waves on every type of helicopter. Sure it is not vibrations?

Thanks guys. I was able to clear the picture and eliminate the wavy lines by mounting the camera to the bottom of the canopy and directing the antenna to the side opposite of the ESC.
