First try at filming from inside my T240 (petrol engine) The camera is mounted on a servo so It can look through front and side windows whilst flying, but I didn't try it too much as I need to get used to flying again after long winter lay off. Has this been done before?

This is my best to date, taken a while back now with the camera operated by a second person with an independent control system. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RhBxrtSb6w

10 bonus points if you can tell me the location and another 10 for the owner of the aircraft :D

A later addition was an "Autopan" system that could be used to automatically make the camera "Look into" the turns http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkcZPKSpnKc

And I'm just in the process of upgrading my system with a GoPro HD and a mount for my 1/3 scale Sopwith Triplane http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25SgsoLeZPw

I will be testing it over the weekend hopefully (not in the Triplane!) if we are lucky enough to have any decent weather this weekend.
