Very windy today...so I thought I would take up the Helicycle. The winds were around 25-30 and gusty. I headed with the wind and set a new speed record while I was checking on the farms.
My GPS showed 140 mph while my ASI indicated 110 mph. I still could maintain 80 mph groundspeed going into the wind.
I landed over on one of dads farms in some grass , just because it was there and I could. ha
The first and 2nd picture are of the confined area I flew into at the Bed and Breakfast. The third picture you can see my skid cam mount that I use for my videos. I can simply reach out the door and turn the camera off and on. Someday I will get one like Gabor has with a remote switch. Maybe I could mount the camera on my tail.....
