    That's funny that you posted that, I was thinking to do come similar flight maneuvers.

    Did you record any video of the flight I was videoing you?

    My camera never caught a glimpse of the hexa, I was too low and the camera looks down. I liked the view you filmed of me taking off, would like to do some more like that, maybe a slow follow scene?

    That sounds good.  I am still getting used to the new angle of my camera in the hexa.  Besides your takeoff I didn't really get your helicopter into the frame until a couple minutes before your battery was out.  I was too high expecting my angle to be more downwards like it used to be.  I kind of split the difference on the new mount because I noticed in my older videos when I was moving forwards with some speed my camera was looking more downwards than I wanted.  Now I am pointing slightly more level so I get a good angle when in forward flight and when I stop and hover I still see slightly more ground than sky.
