A quick pic from my Trex 450. I was fighting late afternoon winds, the sun and an annoying construction worker, and managed to get this shot (only processing was to adjust the color and re-size)

which camera are you using?
I have an optio 5z to keep it light, but it seems that most even with a trex are using heavier cameras

I am using a Canon A540 with an Askman APLG Mount. The camera weighs in at 8oz.

Here is a quick pic of the bird. I need to add some pool noodle to the skids and will do so when they show up locally this spring.

Classy looking bird
like the black g10
I usually fly my trex without a canopy this was one of the old glamor shots I took last year. I tried dying the yellow g-10 black didn't really work

I am using a servo to trigger the camera. I am debating about hard wiring a switch lead to the camera.
