RC Slope Soaring Cairns Bay with Tim Mark & Steve - WARNING LOW RES - TEST CAMERA TRIAL
Slope soaring our favourite location for SW winds, Cairns Bay.
Trying out an old 360 camera for an unattended camera person - it seemed to work! Well, have a look and see. BEWARE - Simple flying scenes, and apologies for the wind noise, as the camera has no plug in mic options. Also, the test camera is very low resolution and does not allow for much zoom, so the models often are very small in the view. In the end, the test was seemingly successful from the point of just dropping a camera in the field, hit the record button, and it recorded everything around it. Later I simply selected views from the field from 360degrees to 16x9 screen size. Otherwise... Just a few blokes having a nice time flying and chatting about anything.

First time Slope Soaring in many years, location: Portsea [Victoria] back beach. The hang glider launch site was filled by paragliders, so I headed to another beach for free space. Model: Kyosho F16 Fighting Falcon [late 1990's ARF version]. No ducted fan fitted, just RC gear on board.

    Nice video, nice location. Here in Germany we are expecting snow over Christmas - unfortunately no flying 😮‍💨. I wonder why you did not use flaps in order to slow her down for landing 🤔

      Hello Friedrich, thank you for writing. Hope the snow season is short, and you are back in the air soon. About the use of flaps, I'm not such a confident flyer, but trying to use the flaps now on approach. I did try using flaps just recently and applied them at the wrong time and tip stalled nearly into a small pond. Ha! I will keep trying to improve. All the best to you!

      @@stevenmohr4588 controlling the flaps in an on/Off mode could apply too much of a break. Therefore, I mix them with my throttle stick position (while throttle ist switched Off) - This allows a fine dosage of flap deflection. First tests of flap control should anyway be done at reasonable altitude, then you have a chance to react if something unexpected happens
