Helicopter Orchard Departure with Narrated Startup and Landing
In this relatively short video, I start up my helicopter in a field adjacent to an orchard and depart using a maximum performance takeoff. I did my best to narrate the startup procedure, but I honestly could do better (and will in the future) -- this covers the basics. I use picture-in-picture to show the view out the front of the helicopter, which includes the instrument panel, as well as the view looking in at me. (I think it's pretty cool that you can see the terrain receding behind me in this wide angle view.) In this video, I've experimented with callouts to point out certain things I'm talking about and explain things I should have explained in the narration. My video editing skills are getting better, but there's always room for improvement. I'm trying! As usual, I'd love to get your comments about the video. Leave them in the comments section below and don't be afraid to tell me what you need me to show or explain in future videos. I'm always looking for new topics to cover.
