Tank,

How long have you been flying rc planes? Pretty slick flying and photos came out great so I'm wondering how much practice time it took before being able to video that well. I can imagine my videos being short takes that are choppy, out of focus and all end with the same splash in the water.

Thanks,
Rick

Pretty Cool!
Be nice if the sound from the RC motors could be eliminated in order to pick up the boat motors for those fly bys.

None of those videos are mine. Just pulled from YouTube. I fly the same plane though and have run an in flight video cam. Only been flying for about 4 years. Flying with the camera isn't that big of a deal, it just affects the controls a bit depending on where the cameras mounted. Those go-pros are sick cameras but a bit bulky for an RC plane. You can get a super light weight "flash drive" camera for around 150. That is what Ive used and the quality is decent.
