Whiskey in the jar.....

Even though this looks like more of the same boring stuff it was mentally exhausting.It has more back flips than a normal battery.I am still not comfortable with them.
It has a double aileron roll that always makes my knees knock.There is even an auto rotation that came a lot closer to the ground than intended
This is a pretty active flight for me.I'm getting there.

And OHHH,the Helicommand was sitting on the work table through the whole pack ;D

Nice flying Ern! If it was me, I would prolly be flying into those trees and that shed more often. Luckily I have a large flying area just a mile down the road, so if I hit that school, it's means I'm a really bad pilot.

[McKrackin]

That short steel pole by the garden worries me more than the tree line.
There aren't enough fingers on this forum to count the close calls on that thing.
It killed a couple of my Walkera helis and a Trex 450 clone.

I'd move it but it has become part of the flying environment.lol....

sweet flying as usual mckrackin, love the metallica version BTW.

a ? for ya though how can i incorporate music in my video's w/out the file being so damn huge? and if i compress it. it looks like sh*t.
any ideas?

[McKrackin]

I don't know.I don't compress anything.
I just use Windows Movie Maker and insert a song.
This one is 99MB.
In the AVI form it was 2.9GB.
I played the AVI with Quicktime Player and recorded it with Fraps.The Fraps recording is WMP and smaller.THEN I used Windows Movie Maker to publish it with the soundtrack.

Make any sense???

[fergie]

i think so, i'll give er a shot and see what happens.
thanx mc

LOL,,,my Moat-Gator file was 385.4 MB for a 3 minute video,,,,took 14 hours to up-load it. I still have to figure out this video stuff. But my video posted with very good quality.

[McKrackin]

14hrs???
Wow.What internet package do you have.
I wouldn't expect 400MB to take even a half hour.

[elkmaster01]

Yea,,,,I have satilite,,,hughesnet,,, the upload speeds are only 200 kps,,,,on a good day,,,,at 2:00 AM. I have an additional problem this time of year with folage,,,I live in a forest. I need to put my dish on a tall pole or tower. But ATT keeps saying 'soon' for DSL,,,,yea,,,2 years ago it was 'soon' also!

[McKrackin]

lol..I know what you mean.
I have Wild Blue satellite and also live in the woods.
I pay for the fastest package availabe and have my dish on the roof of my garage.

Horizon just bought our local cable outfit a year ago and keep saying "SOON" for digi cable and internet.

We'll see

We Hilljacks get everything when it's already old news.

i have hughes net also, the 1.5 Mb speed. not impressed, but they recently brought cable out here, i'm going for the 10 Mb speed, and it's STILL cheaper that hughes net

I somehow missed this video.
That's the kind of flying I hope to get to!!

Nice flying, Mckrackin!
And to think it's without the helicommand!!
Awesome!
