Kudos to that crew, that looked extremely nauseating
Amazing! looks to be true but, the wild gyrations did make me think there is no way to land that thing safely... I mean, it was all over the place... and then on landing, smooth?
What's up with that camerawork? It is insane to me how someone can;t just point straight and keep it there... not even have to be steady, at least on target!! ugh! Video is MUCH worse then the pilots.
YEah that videographer was high on vodka. WTF?
any more background on what went wrong? Those variations in yaw, roll and pitch almost appear sinusoidal. Anyone know the tech behind what went wrong?
I may not know the tech behind the pitch/yaw/roll, but I sure know the tech in my stomach would be one direction, liquid and highly projectile! :tongue:
