Haha, nice. Got to be a bit careful doing things like that in case the streamer tangles something. A chap who fly at our field has a T-28 with streamers on the wing ends. He was dog-fighting his mate when it flew into one streamer. The T-28 was downed and the other plane got a piece of streamer caught in an aileron and ended in a spin of death.

Ive been doing it at our club for a few weeks now, and a couple of other guys as well. Had a lot of chases and a few cuts of the streamer. this is the first time with the cam as well. I always tie it to the tail wheel, seems to tow it really easy with the extra grunt from the lipo .
