RV-8 acro video with smoke

I've had a lot of fun lately playing with my under wing bullet cam mount on my RV-8. The camera can be ground adjusted to any of 8 positions (fore, aft, sideways). Now that I have a smoke system I can see where I have been! The bullet camera feeds a Canon HV-30 located in the cockpit. It's interesting to see how much denser the smoke is when you go vertical due to the slower airspeed.

video and smoke

Very pretty video, and great editing too. Hope to have my smoke system in shortly. It's the one Groucho recommended.

Thanks for the great vid. I sent the link to a friend of mine I'd like to convince to build an RV. He's one of those certificated pilots who hasn't flown in years due to time, family, and/or money. He's open to the idea, just got to get him to commit! Vids like this help push him closer to the edge. :)
 
Great Video! Loved watching the smoke trail, and intersecting back through the smoke after a roll or loop.
