Wasabi Precision Aerobatics Practice

Had a lovely afternoon up in the mountains yesterday with my FL Bird Works Wasabi. Practicing precision aerobatics is a really great change of pace from the Ultrabatic flying at the beach, and something I’ve enjoyed for many years now.

Unfortunately, capturing the “big air” flying on video has always proven something of a challenge. As an experiment inspired by Ian “Daemon” Frechette’s winning “High Energy” video from last year’s video contest, I tried using my GoPro Hero2 set on “Narrow” Field of View.

I’m not totally happy with the results – I still had to do a lot of zooming and panning in iMovie during editing – but it’s nice to finally post another precision video. It’s been nearly six years since my last one!! 🙂
