Put a big swivelling machine gun in the front and you could turn it into a semi scale WW1 biplane like a DH2
I flew from another resort this week and found a pond there suitable for boating complete with retrieval dinghy. Its also next door to the local Cockpit that is open every Tuesday.
Kermit if you would have taken the trouble to turn up and press record I would possibly have voted for you instead of Bumblebee. I just couldnt bring myself to voting for the duck hunter twice in a row even though it was the best video!
Here is the real Wing Wing z84. I have one:
The toothpick hinges are brilliant and nowI expect everyone to have perfectly clean teeth next fly. Good to see Ron with 2 maidens and showing off doing rolls straight from a maiden takeoff. Also good to see Ricky flying. No video from me in Philippines as seems to be a lack of voting interest in boring drone footage here. We just had 5 days of rain with a nearby typhoon but back to hot and not much wind today.
Well done Gerald. But we need a discussion on what happens if its a 50/50 tie. Does the President then get the casting vote? This is the big issue in The Philippines at the moment.
Here is my drone footage from a wedding we went to this week. The vid starts at the drone start or you can scroll back and see wedding clips from my mobile:
Looks like a nice day for a fly. The Techpod video looks great at last. Also I like that Andrew’s Spitfire is flying nice at last. And I think Ron has the first tiperon plane at the field and it seemed to fly nicely. I have cast my vote but also I have my own video from 2 days ago with some drone footage at a nearby beach in 36 degrees midday heat.
Its stuttering like frame rate is too slow. I use 60fps for flight footage but I know youtube makes it look worse. Is your SD card fast enough for the camera?
Nice footage and I have voted. I liked Ron’s Tundra going backwards on the pond. Its 35 degrees here in Subic and I just got back from a day sail.
My congratulations to the winner and thank you for the $5. That will feed me for a week in the Philippines.
Will there be fines if we do not vote? Is the voting anonymous?Are bribes and kickbacks still OK? So many questions about voting.
On a video note I think our regular contributors visual is first class but let down by audio. If only I could hear Scottie’s words of wisdom we would have videos better than Bruce in NZ. His audio is mostly annoying anyway. Do you need to add external mics to your cams to record sounds better?
It was good to see all the seaplane action but shame no one has a Skipper/Dragonfly yet. And where was the frog chorus? Here in Subic Bay I am sailing a lot of day sails but its rainy season so most early evenings it buckets down. But it also brings out the bullfrogs. Turn up sound and you can hear them from our balcomy:
I may go visit the model flying club next week and get some footage.
