Flying videos needed for a TV show

Cox International Wed Oct 03, 2012 4:39 pm

On Friday the local TV crew will be here to film a short story of Cox International.

They wanted to film a segment with me flying, not realizing that this would entail hours of preparation, even if the weather complied.

We settled on sourcing existing footage.

Therefore, if anyone has links to videos of someone flying a Cox airpalne or an airplane with a Cox engine, RC or CL, that is of decent quality, pleasd send or post the links for usto choose from.

They don't have to be your own videos.

TD09 RC any good?

Cox International Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:22 pm

Nice one, thanks, and they probably have the means to digitally zoom in the flight.

This is cool! Be sure to set up your VCR to record that news segment! Hopefully the news channel will post the segment on their site! Keep us posted!

Hey Bernie,

Don't know if these would work, but you're certainly welcome to use them if so.

Apparently it will be available on-line and, if and when, I will post the link.

Kim,

Everything that is posted here on Friday morning I will show to the TV people and they can choose what they like.

Thanks for the contribution.

i have some good clear videos I'll post up as soon as I finish my pizza. Computer Issues

Looking through all of my videos, most are patchwork medleys with bad camera work and me talking too much. The 1/2A planes are hard enough to see anyway. If you can get anything useful from these, I hope they help.

Here you go Bernie poss this vid answers 2 of your needs....

This is the same plane as above, with almost all of one of your killer bee 2's (I tweaked the cylinder) up front.
Even though it weighs 26oz and has a wingspan of 55 inches it fly's reasonably ok even with a surestart up front.

It's a Multiplex Hummel (artf) and although an electric model it took an idiot (me) 15 mins with some ply and cyano to convert.

Sorry about the old iphone 3 vid....

And Kim. His are the most spectacular.

I need to get one of those helmet or eyeglass cams. Do you think you could make any money on those, Bernie?

No, no, ROFL because I find the idea intriguing.

I am so focused on "cox-only" that I sometimes lose sight of potential opportunities.

My biggest successes in business have always been with unconventional and "off-the-wall" ideas (Cox was one of them).

Do please honour me with more details and I promise to look into the possibility.

Oh,okay. I'll hunt down the guys that use these things and find out what they are using. I think it's mostly inexpensive stuff.
