Konrad Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Late last year we put skis on some of our r/c airplanes and went out to the field and flew. Here's one of the best parts: This video has a CRASH in it. Here's the NEXT best part: The crash wasn't me or my plane, lol... ;D My flying buddy Tracy was doing high speed, low altitude inverted passes. (A great recipe for disaster ;D ) I don't appear in the vid until 1:42. I did most of the camera work, and all of the editing. It was my first attempt at video editing, so be nice. The obituary at the end is for Tigger, the little stuffed tiger that was in the cockpit of the crashed Extra. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZM1Ud60msg Quote
Ken_Potts Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Konrad I'm shocked! I've put in a call to PEST (People for the Emancipation of Stuffed Tigers) and you can expect to wake up to at least four protesters chained to your house. We had a dozen or so ready to go but some of us are on bed rest due to protein deficiencies... Cool planes, but why is the landscape white and why aren't there wheels on the landing gear? Is there something wrong with your camera? ??? Quote
capt jake Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 That took forever to load for me, but it was well worth it! I miss that climate you have back there. Quote
Bruce Kershaw Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I like it! ;D Um... That music leaves no doubt to where it was filmed. don't worry. Rock & Roll will find it's way there... someday. Quote

That's Aaron Copland, man. You don't get more red-blooded American than that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Copland Quote
Bruce Kershaw Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRzr5EO35tc&feature=related What can I say?... Child of the 70s. What's a "Jack-Mo"? Quote
Konrad Posted October 5, 2008 Author Posted October 5, 2008 OMG, that is an abomination unto the Lord... lol "Jack-Mo"... A phrase that is as close to good-natured swearing/taunting as I'll get on such a fine forum, or towards an internet acquaintence. So this "Emerson, Lake, & Palmer" that you speak of... They were three extremely unattractive women who actually looked like men...? Because I gotta tell you, those chicks are yeeeeshh.... ;D Quote
Bruce Kershaw Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 So this "Emerson, Lake, & Palmer" that you speak of... They were three extremely unattractive women who actually looked like men...? You clean cut guys... : Sounds like something my dad would have said (about me) back when I was in high school. (and still had hair) Seriously though, what software, or whatever do I need to be able to put together and post something like that on YouTube? My Cannon Power Shot records in AVI, and I'm running Windows, Vista. Is that a start? I mean... you know... If Konrad can do it... Quote

Bruce Kershaw Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Thanks, Chris. I'll have to learn it. Cool avitar, Konrad. Quote
