I thought it might be nice to have a spot to put our Vortex flight videos, so they can be easily found. To this end, I am starting this thread, and will include my first and second videos. Again apologies for the awful hat cam alignment, I just can't seem to get it right, and I do try. Anyway, the first video was my maiden flight, and this second one was from three o'clock today, and it was getting pretty windy. Just watch how fast I have to track left to right compared to right to left to follow the heli, when I go down wind as opposed to up, in a normal pass. Or check out the tree to my left as I land.

Considering the wind, I think it does a pretty good job. What do you guys think? Pity I'm not a better pilot, who could demonstrate more, but at least I am a normal guy, if you see what I mean. Not HeliStig, is what I'm trying to say, so if I can do it lots of other people will be able to do it too.

Maiden.

Some 20 or 30 packs later I guess, on a very windy day.

Cheers
