First Flight
Hello Everybody,
I'm very happy to announce that yesterday morning (3/25) I flew my Kitfox for the first time. A short flight circling Arthur Dunn Airpark in Titusville, Florida. Every thing went very well.
Follow the link below for a quick and dirty edit of video from the flight.
The video taken from the ground was shot by my wife, Linda, with a small point and shoot camera. That's why it's a little unsteady.
The video from the cockpit was shot with my GoPro.
You'll notice that I turned off the sound during the first part of the flight. The AOA sensor is not calibrated and it was sounding the alarm. I didn't hear it at first because I hadn't pushed the noise cancellation button on my headset. When a friend called me from the ground I realized my mistake and corrected it. That's when I heard the sound and turned down the volume.
You'll notice at about 1,200 ft I flew into a layer of smoke. There was a brush
fire somewhere.
