Awesome Copter Dives in beautiful Styrian Mountains (RCSchim commented FPV)

Da ich einen Tag frei hatte, konnte ich endlich mal zu diesem Platz fahren (hab den schon lange auf meiner Liste). Die 1 Stunde Fahrzeit hat sich bezahlt gemacht. Großartige Landschaft, geniale Felsentürme!
Der TrinCopter (mehr Infos unten!) ist nun endlich soweit eingestellt, dass ich die Dive-Serie vom letzten Jahr vortführen kann. Mein einem Discovery ginge es auch, aber nicht so schnell. Ausserdem hab ich noch immer keine passende Manual-Mode Einstellung bei der Naza gefunden - KK2 ist hier einfacher - und "fühlt" sich gut an.
Nachteil: mit dem Tincopter hab ich kein Failsafe - RTH - also ist man noch nervöser beim Fliegen! Hier sollte also Video und Steuerung (ezUHF) perfekt funktionieren.
Da ich am Nachmittag dann noch Zeit für den Videoschnitt hatte, kam dieses Video ausnahmsweise sofort dran (normalerweise dauerts of Wochen/Monate).
Schade um die Audiokommentar - sorry wegen der Qualität - hab ein neues Mic aber die Platzierung war nicht gut! Dennoch wollte ich Euch einen Eindruck von der Anspannung vermitteln...
Man müsste echt mal einen Pulsmesser verwenden!

Had a day off and could visit this awesome location (1h drive) that I had in mind now for some time.
The "TrinCopter" is stable enough to continue the dives-series I started last year (also with KK2 and quite powerful motors). Discovery could do similar - but not so fast and manual mode on Naza still feels weird - KK2 manual mode is more comfortable to me.
Downside: no failsafe coming home on this one - so you have to have good video and radio (EzUHF) to make sure no glitch stopps your flight! More info on the TrinCopter in my Hangar (link below).
Normaly it takes some time (weeks to month) to publish an FPV flight (because editing takes time). But I was so happy with the quality of this footage that I had to make this vid asap (had the afternoon for this).
Sorry about the voice comments being so bad quality - the new mic is great - but my placement wasnt. Should do better next time...
But I wanted to rec the emotions and highpulse you're in while flying at such a site...

Probably your best video yet. Thanks for sharing. I really like this format ... it's good to watch a pro and hear how he does things.

I really enjoy your videos and I very much appreciate the time and effort you put into this!!!!

One question: which editing software do you use and which file format? I take video with a mobius in 1080 at 30 frames. And every time I edit (Power Director) I get really bad results. If I use mov at 1080/30 the quality is much worse than the original, if I go to mp4 1080/30 with the highest quality setting, then the image quality is good, but the clip is very jerky. And then I see your videos and they are fantastic!!!

Hi Torsten, try Sony Vegas - it's really good, there is a home version that is affordable and rendering is easy!
