I was sort of wondering if he didnt do that out of respect for kittenger cuz your right, 1960 - HUGE BALLS. i also thought it was pretty cool how they had kittenger involved with the whole thing.

wow quite the typo! here are some preliminary numbers. Altitude: 128,097 ft Duration of freefall: 4:19 Total jump time: 9:03 Speed: 1137 kmh (Mach 1.24) 833 mph Very impressive. I am shocked he hit those speeds, given the drag from his gigantic balls :).

pretty sure that refers to the first run of S800's. Had an issue with ESC I believe.

Congrats - that was just plain awesome!! there was a bit of time when he was spinning around violently and I was wondering - is he supposed todo that? few screen snaps...4th pic is nuts.

passing the armstrong line at 63k feet. at this altitude without pressurization felix blood would boil. yikes. i am glued to the monitor much like when the Shuttle would launch or land. Going to miss that, but stoked there are programs like this keeping the journeys into space alive. i am not...

here is a little update for those who cant watch it. pretty amazing. just past 30k feet. climb rate @1100 feet minute.

And he is off.....

Nicwilke - im jealous, do you already have Xm-6? Love that frame, constantly drooling over it online. The XOARs are 12". I had a quick flight with no payload after dinner. Seemed real solid. I will give them a go with the DSLR underneath tomorrow. Honestly, and I hate to admit this (normally i...

Gorgeous. Gotta love this time of year for aerial pics. Nicely done - Janoots

Much loved AD6 got some new props. Will give them a go tomorrow. Previously running 12" APC, and quite frankly - I liked them. Just had to try these though :)

Kloner I got some decent vid from mine this weekend. However, was quite surprised by some pretty poor performance Sat morning in the very cold temps. It was more or less, snowing and blowing sideways. Fogging up. Was thinking about getting some air in the case, but will lose its water proof...

Thanks for the tips. First for me is the basics. Drives me a bit nuts when horizon isnt level - etc. I too subscribe to the "how did they do that?" I took several shots from over the water which showed that, and was a bit surprised they werent chosen by the client. No biggie. I am quietly trying...

Nice idea for a thread. +1 on the soldering jig. Must have for me. Might add that a flight simulator is also a must have. Particularly for someone with no or little RC experience. THere are several good simulators, I happen to have Real Flight and it is pretty good but I believe there are some...

Mombasa assuming you are talking about golf course pics and not that beautiful beach pic posted on previous page - Yep it is awfully nice in Durango this time of year. Its about to get snowy! I am fortunate enough to live in the north end of the valley. THis golf course runs north south...

I happen to live in a valley that runs north south. mountains covered in fall colors east and west of me. i hope you dont mind but i am gonna give it a whirl too. I wont get to it till next week, but it sounds fun. I will share with you my results.
