Chris,

Good video! Noticed that in the formation part that the CHIEF was in front everytime. Proof that the CHIEF is faster I guess! :)

Nice music with the video. I flew Santana for part of their "Abraxus" tour and they are really nice people. Had a very good time with them. Carlos brought his wife and daughter, and the daughter played flight attendent on the flight.

actually... the Champ was back there to alert the Chief of any fast moving Rain Showers coming up from the rear !! :mrgreen:

Chris, "Kodos" on the camera mount, I get nauseous watching some of those YouTube videos.
Two things "work"...still camera & not too long.

Great video. I haven't done any real nap of the earth flying since Vietnam. River running is really fun, but in the states, you better watch out for power lines. Now, if I only had a "H" model huey.....
By the way, I'm sure that the Champ had to throttle back so that it wouldn't overtake the Chief.....

You are correct about the power lines being everywhere however, I know this river very well. However, I'm more worried about the cell towers that appear to be going up 10 a week with 45 degree invisible guide wires.

Jim, the weather was too crapy for us to fly anyway.

Great flying day today. Might have been my last flight prior to deployment.

Sorry about the quality, I only had my phone with me.

Chris, well as of today you have had over 500 people view the thread, and it will be going MUCH higher now that Wheeler has "upped the ante" on this!

Course with you in Iraq right now serving our country its hard for you to reply, but we will help once you are back home. You think that a dis-assembled Champ would go through APO mail? We could tell them its just a funny painted UAV! :)

Thanks Joe, I had fun while doing it! :D

The camera I used is a Go-Pro, they are very small and relatively inexpensive. http://www.goprocamera.com/video


Here are a couple more videos.
