    RC Helo with GoPro HD follows Tony's Hydro

    Taken today at Lake Forest. A Helo flown by expert pilot Radek has a Go Pro HD camera mounted on it. (It was just a test so we did not shock mount which we will do next time so there is a bit of skid vibration where the camera was mounted). The Helo follows Tony's white Hydro around the lake to capture the action. Good first and the technique certainly has potential!

      Guys, this is F****** AWESOME!!!!!
      The Helo cam give the boat a sense of reality that is freaky, reminds me of the Helis that fly next to the C1 Offshore babies!!!
      Wow, AWESOME!!!

      Next BB machine gun with a Coast Guard heli !!! Rocket Launcher optional...

                              Thats awsome and some awesome flying too. Iv'e been playing with my GoPro too (not HD though) on my heli. Don't have the guts to try it over water yet.

                              BTW Tony you still got your 450?
