Put a cam in the pilot's seat of my Leader 480 for an aerobatic flight.

Cool video. Now can I leave work and go flying?  The plane feels like it's going quite quick.  Would be fun to fly the routine and see just how level wings are ect through out the flight. Thanks for posting
Yea 400W/lb should about do it.. But wouldn't a nice round 500 be better?

Yeah, I need to work on slowing my pace down. It would be make it easier to transition from one element to the other. I also noticed that even in moves where I felt my wings were level, they were a little off (although the camera is a tilted a little as well)

Hmm.. maybe I'll need to remove Captain Giant Head from the Pogo and try that... But then again, I'd have to face the camera to rear of the plane so you guys can see Greg's Toni in the air as well.  ;)

Just face the camera forward so we can see how Gregs Shoestring flies.

always picking on the Toni... I've got some new stickers and we all know that adds about 5 - 10 mph to the top end speed :)

So you you're saying that you might get on the lead lap next time?  ;D

Stickers DO make race planes faster. Why do you think NASCAR cars have all those decals on them?
