finally smooth video, bergen gasser, almost ran out of fuel

hey guys,

contribute to my monthly bandwidth deficit and download some video. so far in the last 10 days, the website has dealt out 40 Gb of video. here is some more to add to the fire!

www.heli-chair.com/videos_public/airborn_video_tests/phase_D_videos

you will find a 5Mb low res and 16Mb high res (each 5 minutes length)

just about ran out of fuel, but managed to get it down before anything went wrong. cat lovers will enjoy, as one of the feline species races across the video path while in a hover.

it's not broadcast video, but it is smooth. the helicopter is all over the place like any other but the smooth video marks a milestone in the remote cockpit concept for heli-chair.com. we will soon be piloting from a downlinked video!

enjoy

Fuel you say? :lol:

Was that a airplane in your backyard or was I seeing things?

[kas1903]

yeah, fuel, that liquid stuff required to maintain the helicopter above ground level. :D

it was an airplane in my neighbors backyard. i can't afford an airplane or even a house, i live in just a tiny part of one of the houses you see there. hint: my roomate is a big airplane.

you guys gotta see this, it is no trick, i am flying by video feed only. this is by far the MOST fun i've ever had flying a remote controlled aircraft. it feels just like a real helicopter.
