Hey, Great Video!!
?What video camera are you using, from the ground?
I want to be able to put a good video camera on my head to film my glider in the air....
Thanks!!!

Hey Ford,
The camera I am using is a Sony HX9V. It has amazing image quality and crazy image stabilization. It's quite the underrated camera. Plus they are cheap now.

Cool Thanks! Did you feel that the Sony HX9V was better for you than a GoPro?

I have both and the 60D and contours. The gopro is good but this Sony just kills it in all respects. That gopro is grainy in comparison. My Bixler review was on a gopro2 is you want a comparison.

Did you have to use an adapter to connect your 850mAh 3s to the xt-60 plug connected to the pre-installed ESC? Also, what charger have you used to charge this particular battery? Great video by the way.
