This Was Fun... aerobatics video
New video?18 rolls, 3 loops, 4 cloverleaves, 1 split-s, 4 Immelmans & 1 spin.
I posted my last video a little over a month ago. After 4 weekends in Alaska for a work trip, I?m back & just put together another video of me doing aerobatics in my -6. The camera is my soon-to-be tailcam 170deg wide-angle bullet camera mounted with a RAM-Mount in the cockpit. The video for this release was shot on a single 30 minute flight - no footage was repeated.
If I can bring myself to do it, I?ll start cutting into my vertical tail on the 4th to mount the camera.
When I finished putting this video together & played it on our big tv, my wife (aka ?Tanya Productions?) asked if I was going to buy another bullet camera once I had this one mounted in the tail??You?re going to need a second one to shoot video from the cockpit still, right?? I love my wife. 
DISCLAIMER: All flying was done in VFR conditions following all FARs. 1500? AGL, greater than 4nm from an airway, not over airports or populated areas, no non-chute wearing passengers, no traffic, etc. Don?t try this at home. If you do, be smart about it & don?t mort yourself out trying. 
The video is ?This Was Fun?? here: http://www.thedukes.org/rv/video.html
My tailcam project info is here: http://www.thedukes.org/rv/tailcam.html
Enjoy!

Thats disgusting!
I mean, I bet your heartrate didn't exceed 75 the whole time, gee it even looked like you didn't bother to cinch down your harness!
Thats beautiful Bryan, I must say i was eagerly waiting your new video and I'm currently doing the "not worthy" wave here in my office.... 
Well I'm off to aerobatic school in 2 weeks and I can hardly wait...I'm sure my face has a slightly different expression during aileron rolls, at least at the moment...
Thanks for the motivation and the camera tips!
Cheers

When my passenger rolled the plane inverted and made use of the "detatchable stick" feature...I would call him my CFI but no one could be dumb enough to do that especially as he was waving the stick at me as we taxied to the active...."No if you do anything wrong I'm going to beat you with this thing"
Airplane was quite happy upside down...Can't quite say the same for myself.

Great EVERYTHING on this video, Bryan.
Just in from a short flight in my RV-6, but the clouds weren't high enough to permit some upside down... sigh...
Killer video, again. My best to the production company.

Beautiful video! I think I'm going to leave work early to pound some rivets...
Just curious, where did you learn acro? I always wonder when I see acro videos whether the pilot has a military or purely civilian background.
Thanks,
