Second Video with iPod Nano

[texasrob]

For this video, I have the iPod Nano facing forward, mounted between the landing gear struts with electrical tape. Worked well and did not cause any noticeable change in flight characteristics.

Unbelieveable! I liked that one almost as much as psweigert's.

Thanks for checking it out! It was a little windy (7 to 8 mph) which made the video a little jumpy and the sun was not in the best position. I think what I have learned is that the nano will take the best video if the sun has just set, or if it is directly overhead like in the summertime at mid day. That way, it is not darkening and lightening as it goes in and out of the sun. And of course, the actual quality of the original video is better than what you get on youtube.

Hey nice vid! This is the first time I see a video with a nano, what a great idea. The quality is way up there. Thanks for sharing.
Take care,

Thanks! The mounting is pretty easy due to the small size of the Nano. For the first video I had the Nano taped here:



And for the second video (mounting is a little harder, but not bad), I had it taped here:

Such a great idea, and as I said, I'm amazed at the video quality. Looks like an nice area to fly as well.
