Took a lot of video this weekend flying with James_Bond, EricJ320 and BZFlyGirl, but most of it I had to scrap due to I had the motor too close to the motor and it caused bad video waves whenever I gave the least bit of throttle. I need to experiment with foil or something to block out the EMI.
Anyway, I moved the motor further back on my HobbyZone Super Cub and flew it off my back porch just before sunset (the only time I had free to fly this weekend).
So, here it is.. Enjoy yet ANOTHER aerial video. This is the highest I've gotten with a camera I believe.

Cool Vid! The crotch shot at the end is priceless
What RX are you using on it, AR6100?
On the interference issue are you sure its electrical, my mini cam is really susceptible to vibration, I solved most of the distorted picture by making a padded mount for my camera.

I agree, I'd say it's high frequency vibration. You can even see it in that 747 video I posted, which had some waviness from high speed buffeting in the air. Try isolating it from vibration first, then explore the EMI if that doesn't help.

Yep, that was HIGH. I could see my house, and i'm out of town this week...i'll have to ask my wife about the strange car in the driveway
And were there a couple of aborted landing attempts, or were those planned low passes?

The video has one aborted landing pass.
There were others, but they were clipped out. The others you saw in the video were just low flying passes. The overall unedited video was 26min on a 2200mah battery.
Are you the guy that flies RC planes on the undeveloped street near me?
