    Treated ourselves to a Fathers Day weekend at the beach. With a Heli in the trunk of course! Only did one flight because the wind was insane over there. But found where the Winchuck River dumps into the Pacific and braved one flight. Never flew by the ocean before, kind of freaky, but will do it again.

    Nice flight, very sharp video.  You really have the camera dialed in.

    Thanks. That was my first flight on the 450 in a long time. Been flying the tricopter instead. Was nervous about the ocean and never flew the co pilot near water before. Seemed ok. But the flight was a bit jerky since my AP skills have faded due to lack of practice.

    Where did you get your SnapWare again?  I have a idea I want to try out.  We got ours at BiMart but they don't have the size I need.

    They have it at Fred Meyer and Wal Mart, but the size I needed for the GoPro was only available at Bi Mart. So I think you need to try everywhere with this stuff, no one store stocks all the sizes.
