Remarkably stable platform, and clear video. I'm impressed. Good lunch crowd on a pleasant day. What was the temperature?

Thanks for picking a new tune. The Allman Bros. have been going round and round in my head since your last flight.
When you start getting ballsy with your flight I expect some tunes from the Top Gun movie. Go look at the "I want one" thread from earlier. You could have all them people scramble for cover. What fun that would be.

Can you show the UAV itself again? I missed the first time you debuted it.

This is really cool!

What's FPV stand for? You posted it in "General Non-Surveying" but with a GPS encoded images I could definitely find hundreds of uses for this, it would certainly make presentations at the Planning Board or Zoning Board go smoother, since so many of the laypersons on these boards appreciate imagery of the project.

Thanks for posting these!

FPV- (First Person View) You can see in realtime what the camera "sees".

Nice. Thanks very much.

PS - I love the truck.... even though it has a "jeepy" body style, and not a Full size chevy pickup body! B-) 😉
