Tricopter in the Snow

       So all throughout last week I was excited when I heard news of snow prediction for the week.  It's been about two years since we've got a good snowstorm here and I had already made plans to capture some footage from the tricopter.  So, that's just what I did!  It was also a great opportunity to test out a mount/case that I made for my Canon 310HS camera.  I was very pleased with the results that I got.  The video was very smooth and Jello - free.

Here are all four runs that I did:

I started out in the backyard.  The tri was very heavy and sluggish compared to what I was used to.

If you like crashes, this one is for you!  I'm not sure what the cause of this crash was.  I think that some snow may have melted on the controller board.  There was no damage though!

I the end I hope that you enjoyed watching some of my flying, and I hope that I've inspired you to go out and get some great footage for yourself!  (even if it's just around your neighborhood like me!)
