Don't forget the shake & throw auto-takeoff :-)

ARM_TRIGGER is the command, should be before the climb. You can choose the "shake direction". I prefer lateral.

We have had some really nice days of summer weather and although I am back at work I have managed quite a few Gluonpilot flights with the Popwing2 and also the FunjetUltra2 - now completely redesigned to balance with the Mobius camcorder.

Here are some snapshots - video stills! - from the Mobius camcorder which you mentioned - I have had good experinece woth the original #16 cam but the Mobius is better!

I will edit some of the flights soon and post a video.

Enjoy!

I'm also experimenting with the Mobius! But not enough time... How would you compare it with your Gopro?

Was it on autopilot? Did you experience worse GPS signal?

Hi Tom,

Yes it was on auto, I have had 4-5 flights so far and here are some comments;

- I haven't noticed poorer GPS signal
- Colours are good - a little warm but that's fine
- Sharp pictures
- The GoPro3 is in my opinon slightly better - less barrell distortion and a little sharper but does it justfy the price!? (no!)
- The GoPro3 survives a 100 kph dive - don't know about the Mobius (yet!)

One question for you - when using the latest fw and beta3 GCS I cannot burn the route to flash without loosing the datalink, or use Auto-sync - could this be a bug?

Thanks,

Björn
