Night Flight FPV

by StoneBlueAirlines | March 1, 2013 | (4) Posted in Just Fun

If you think flying FPV in the daytime is fun then you have not seen anything until you launch your plane into the great dark skies. Had a fun night and at least for me I came away without any issues. I will say this was my first real full on night flight and it was a rush. Looking forward to trying this again soon as the weather warms up. The winds coming up off the mountain were at least 30mph so that made the flying even that much risky. Thanks for watching and enjoy the flight!

Thanks for sharing, what RC aircraft were you chasing?

It looked good but not very clear, I can understand that being at night light does not reflect of objects as much.

Cheers

I set the lens up in the dark so focus could be off a little but you also get lens flare and that does not help much either. The follow footage is from a wing and I am flying a custom plane called the raven from epp.
