Sharp observation Jack! :)

"Thanks Scott and EITS!
It is the Picopilot -NA and a Creatvice Vado HD cam. Really small and light camera (3 oz) but very good quality which is a lot better when it hasn't compressed and converted by Vimeo... :)
This SuperMiss setup is good for…"

Harbour UAV Mission
This was a duration test with the SuperMiss UAV. A 20 kilometer flight over water under autonomous control and we followd in a chase boat.
"Thanks Gary! I don't think any more laps are necessary for my setup as it is probably as fast as it gets with the SUperMiss. I was actually surprised that it cruised around @ 45-50 kph in spite of the short legs.
Fun competition and nice to…"

- Hi Icebear, I noticed your new pics on RCForums from the Brahe hus - a swedish 17th century mansion. Can you link and geotag them on the pictearth site. I would really like to see exactly where this is :)

- HI Bjorn,
Would you be interested in betatesting some windows processing software with your GPS Tracks and Still photos? Chris is starting to test, and we just got some Finns up and running this weekend. The more the merrier.
The program only requires a normal windows install, the output from your GPS (nmea, gpx, csv) and your digital photos with EXIF (time taken etc). It will produce files for Google Earth that we can then process.
Let me know if you are up for this, Thx

what kind of camera are you using? The video quality is really good. All recorded are are you transmitting?
Thanks,

- Thanks Edan.
It is just a Pentax Optio s5z compact 5 MP digital cam. It has 640x480 video with DivX compression so you get 45 mins on a 1GB card. No downlink...
