Not too shabby Kermit, even if you did have to rope Uncle G in for some of the footage.
I guess you will get my vote as it was pretty good camera work keeping up with Excalibur and the aerobatics of Li’l Eagle.
Most of the editing was nice and tight but I guess you got a bit tired towards the end.
You could vote twice but the Administrator will know and would probably serve you up at his French restaurant so it would not be advisable
It’s pretty hard to miss the “Voting Page” button on the top RHS of the screen however you only have 48 hours to vote from the time the polls open so if you only tried today you were too late.
However, just so all seems Fair & Just I have had the Administrator add you vote to Kermit’s tally (just this once)
New poll open as soon as all videos from today are finalised but once again only 48 hours to cast your vote
The cameras record the audio OK if it’s not too windy but I wind the audio way back so you don’t have to listen to all the BS. External mics equipped with windsocks would probably work a treat.
Vote or don’t vote is up to the individual & yes its anonymous (except to the administrator). Any bribes & kickbacks coming in my direction are just fine.
The voting system is still a work in progress, just trying to find a system that will work and carries on the good work done in the past by Mr Moose & his Golden Moose Awards.
Looks like everyone’s videos are posted so the Voting page is now live.
Remember only 1 (one) vote from each member so choose carefully.
Now I’ll go and watch all the entries on the big screen and see who gets my vote today.
This is a freebie demo of the program so you can vote multiple times but if you do EVERYONE will know about it and bad things will happen.
If the system works ok & is used as hoped we can purchase the full version that blocks all but one vote.
With all that interest I better get my videos finished & the voting page live.
Looking like Sunday could be another good flying day, if there is any interest I’ll put up a Calendar entry.
That is pretty impressive Gerald, can you post the gyroflow only video in full screen rather than split screen. I would be interested to see how it comes out on the big screen.
The rest may be a while Ron, just about to head out for tea & a tinny or two.
Will get back into editing once I return around 7:00pm
As usual you are correct Chris, it is currently all white inside the dome, hopefully I’ll change it before next flight. At some point I’ll definitely try it with no dome but I’ll need to add exhaust ports as the Pod is pretty well sealed.
Also, I will try and get the camera lens closer to the dome as its around 70mm away at the present. Still needs to be angled down more but after all it’s still a work in progress.
Something different to keep me amused for a short while.
Thanks for the feedback Gerald.
Yes, V1 is quick & easy to set up but very limited in what you can do.
I think V2 will be the better option and we can still set up a fairly generic voting page so that video links etc don’t need to be changed all the time.
V2 also has a built in calendar function so voting stops automatically after 3 days (or whatever you set). You can also set a start date etc as well.
I think I’ve now sorted out the 2K video upload to YouTube, like you said you wouldn’t want to hold your breath while YT processes it though.
Unless it is significantly better on the big screen I’ll go back to 1080P as editing 2K is a pain on my old PC and 4K is virtually impossible.
A couple of things,
1) I have roughed out a Polling/voting page (link via top right hand corner of Main Menu) Have a look and have a vote but note that you only get one vote, there are two versions so feel free to vote in both as I want to see how they work.
2) My 2K version of the video is still loading (may be finished by teatime)
