at Mt. Zion, CO - 6 Mb - :58 (AVI format, requires
DivX codec)
(New 02/05) Here in Southern California,
especially in Carlsbad, conditions are usually not
very epic. In fact, they are usually marginal, at
best. Nonethelss, one must fly, and we have not yet
had the chance to get the HP into really beefy lift.
While the below video is not of your typical, mind-blowing
speed runs, we still feel it is important to show
the versatility of the plane, and how much fun can
be had on a light-lift day, at our little 40ft bluff
in Carlsbad. The conditions were off-angle, and fluctuating
between from 5-7mph. This shows the Halfpipe in weak
to average conditions, and includes some fun, tip-to-tip
zipping & psuedo-racing around, with two halfpipes
and an UberMoth; it is a very common style of flight
on our little slope... in your face fun!

HERE,
in the 1/11/06 entry.
This is a tiny clip from a long video taken quite a
few years ago. It shows two dumb seagulls battling over
who is going to mate with my one-of-a-kind "Mini-Shrike"
(36" span). It was stalked and almost demolished
after being flung backwards a few feet, out of mid air.
I nearly hit the deck inverted but managed to pull out
just in time... dvc
