      Yup! It was dumb, entirely self-inflicted. I was playing with the camera and trying to take some video of mont blanc. Lesson learned

      @@The.FlyGuy Was it induced by your movements or was it about to happen but due to lack of active flying for 5-10 seconds you couldn't prevent it? I am always nervous to take out or adjust a camera

      Lack of active flying, no excuses! It would have easily been prevented with a quick stab of the brakes had my hands actually been holding them 😂

    Cool, I'm flying the exactly same wing.
    Love it, have flown in the area as well.
    But I never had that strong collapses with it. Might be because I'm top loaded.
    Still, I have one photo that almost looks similar like that thumbnail here...😂

    • @The.FlyGuy
      @The.FlyGuy  2 роки тому +3

      To be honest neither have I, and I suspect that's why it happened. The wing has so much passive safety(look at how it recovered itself!) I let my guard down. Flying around with my hands off the brakes was not clever, I accept that

    Salut, images absolument magnifiques, beaux moments à partager merci ... Question tech tu as accroché ta cam 360 de quelle façon ?

    • @The.FlyGuy
      @The.FlyGuy  2 роки тому +2

      Bonjour Frederic. In the opening scenes the camera is on a selfie stick and attached to the walking pole attachments of my harness. Later on I move it around quite a lot, but generally it's secured by pushing it between my hips/legs and the outside of the harness. I have it on a short tether so I don't have to worry about it falling. Thanks for asking!

    • @The.FlyGuy
      @The.FlyGuy  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Ben, it's on a selfie stick which is tethered with some old brake line to my harness. I tend to move it around a bit throughout flight. My harness has hiking pole attachments in the back that I use for the shots behind my head. For the side/front shots I tend to just tuck it inside the harness and trap it between my hips and the harness. I'm not overly worried about it coming out of place or falling because it's tethered

      @@WuTangChillaBee I wouldn't say I'm more conscious 😂 I'd just say this flight was worth it. The learning point for this incident was not to release both hands when playing with cameras, that was inexcusable. If I had to answer why I did that? I'd been flying for over 4 hours, the last hour had been particularly hard going, I was drained, and I let my guard down. It was 100% my fault, and would have easily been avoided had I actually been flying
