Default RV-8 spins

Here's a video I took yesterday of some spins in my RV8. I was hoping that the "mount" on the rear seat back would afford a look at the Dynon, along with the view out the front windscreen. Next time I'll mount it on the front seat cross brace so it's closer to the screen.

This was my first try with the video camera remote, and as you can tell, I shoulda practiced with it first. I didn't get all the other loops, and Cuban 8's as I had hoped to because I inadvertently turned the camera back off!

Apparently, I don't have permission to view the video.

Mel,
I don't know why you can't view it. I didn't set up any restrictions.

Like Mel, I don't qualify.

We're not worthy!

Jon, I think the answer lies in this:

Okay, I just checked and the video was set to private, I changed it to public so it should be good to go now!
Looking forward to finding out what I did "wrong" this time!!!!

Thanks Jon. I've never spun (on my to-do list) so it was cool to see it from inside.

John,

Did you happen to let the stick go forward a little bit before kicking the right rudder? I found if I let the stick forward it takes more than 1 turn to get out. Of course mine is -4 with a tiny rudder.

I think I had the same reaction as you on spins of greater than 3 turns.
