Default Drift HD tail Camera

Took the RV out on Friday for a test with the Drift HD170 on the tail. I use the XD170 under wing for a couple of shots in the video. I hope to get some with the HD under the wing. I did the vid in 720p. I would like to do the 1020p but my computer can't process the video. It is too slow.

Hope you like it

These warped lens views dont do it for me.
Also the tail vibration gives me a headache.

Default Tail vibration

The raw video dosn't have any of the shake in it. It is in a .mov format. when I edit it and saved to play it has the shake look to it. If I burn to a DVD in a DVD format it looks a lot better. I have video with the XD170 on the tail that is much lower resolution and it doesn't shake.

I don't mind the fish eye.

Default I loved

the video - I thought it was very well done. I also happen to like the fish eye view. Did you run a wire for the camera before you closed-up the VS?

I thought it was a good video that deserves positive feedback. Negative G and feedback give me a headache.

I would suggest Jeff that a tad more down elevator is required when going through inverted in the rolls.

Nice one!
