Lucie and Dan's Reliant Adventure. Heading Home. ep4/4
A brief ~240km trip from The Lake Goldsmith steam rally to our last overnight stop at the Campaspe Lodge, in Echuca.
The original Echuca plan was to visit the Holden museum, but it closed permanently a few weeks before our trip. The next plan was to visit the "the Great Aussie Beer Shed & Heritage Farm Museum", apparently a fantastic attraction, unfortunately not open on Mondays. Our accommodation (booked for its proximity to the Holden Museum) gave us a discount at a nearby cafe, also closed on Mondays...
We also didn't think we'd get to ride on a paddle steamer! The internet told me there were no tickets available, but we had learnt at the steam rally that there are two competing paddle s...

360 video from inside the world's fastest gemini with a towbar at Wakefield Park raceway!
Просмотров 949 месяцев назад
Strap into the world's fastest ever Holden Gemini with a towbar around Wakefield park raceway*, and hold on! With speeds in excess of 127km/h, braking and cornering G-forces over 1G (probably), and sub 1:30 lap times! *unconfirmed
Elkin's moment

Elkin, feeling the pressure from the two Lance motors geminis, is forced into a mistake!
Pace car shenanigans
Просмотров 263 года назад
I30N pace car roars up with lights flashing. Any gemini driver instantly panics with flashing lights behind them! Not acting like a normal pace car really confused Elkin, Martin and myself a lot!

Watch in awe of this amazing hot lap. Try not to scream too loud *unconfirmed
Bolt pick up
Просмотров 273 года назад
Found someone's bolt on the ground just after the fish hook. Martin and Elkin think it looks like a shock absorber bolt.
Datsun wheel lift zoomed

A zoomed in version of the Datsun showing what can be done if you have power. Makes the driver of the fastest gemini with a towbar very jealous.

Ultima Evo fly past and V8 Gemini spin
Просмотров 1393 года назад
Watch as I am scared to death by the very fast Ultima Evo flying past me. Had no idea he was coming, note how far back he is as I enter Wakefield's last corner. Then scared again to see the V8 gemini re-entering the track towards me!
Archer unsafe pit release

Mike's beautiful gemini being released from the pits into the path of the fastest gemini with a towbar at full speed! (roughly around 120km/h)
Martin roll race

The two "Martin racing" prepped geminis go head to head in a roll race at Wakefield park. Listen to those motors harmonising! and then Martin drives off, taking the win against the fastest gemini with a towbar.

Enjoyed the journey. Great company you have there. No winges. Amazing. 😊
Thanks Wanda! Glad you enjoyed it! 😁
Great 3rd part!
Glad you liked it! ❤
Bad earth somewhere or voltage stabilisers on the gauges faulty.
I keep joking that it is hard to get a good earth on fibreglass 😂
The anticipation is building!😃
Unidentified hatchback? Its a mid-2000s Renault Clio :P
Thanks! I felt awful about not knowing what it was. Apologies to the owner
Outstanding!!! liked and subbed. sub back if u can. Thanks #19
That was great! Good one Dan! Nice see through propellers too. :)
Better than the yellow ones? :-P
That place would be awesome for some long range especially that valley, what did ya dad say, did he enjoy the experience?
It would definitely be awesome for long range! But you'd have to be braver than me (not hard), I felt that if I crashed anywhere I'd struggle to find the little guy! Dad loved it. He was chatting away the whole time we were flying and afterwards had lots of technical questions. Might be a future fpv pilot! He could do the long range! Haha
Hope you had some all you eat goodness at the club after that flight lol 😉
Hey buddy!
Hey buddy!
How is the quality of the fpv feed compared to the stock Wizard x220 camera?
The fpv feed is beautiful! I had to upgrade as I could not fly with the stock X220 camera. SOOooo glad I did! With the split 2 the view through the goggles is just like the view in the video but much lower resolution of course! Still the same bright colours and great FOV. The original X220 camera is awful :-) AndyRC has a good video about the split 2 and he shows the video settings to get the wide screen FOV.
TheOfficialDanman thanks for the reply! I've only been flying mine for a few weeks but I love it and I think I'm going to go for the Split 2. It seems like an action camera and an upgrade to the fpv camera at the same time
Yeah! It is exactly that. So you are sort of saving money on an action camera while purchasing the most expensive fpv camera, haha. I do love the simplicity of it. When compared with an action camera, you don't need to remember to charge it, attach it to the quad and press record every time you want flight footage. Only need to remember to put in the memory card and it records everything as you see it! Then you can take it home and bore your loved ones with all of the lame flying videos that they can handle, in HD!! hahaha
TheOfficialDanman haha that's exactly what I plan on doing. Were you able to keep the wizard's frame out of the recorded video?
+Jerry Voltz Almost, top corners of the video you can see a hint of the frame. This is on a pretty low camera angle, more camera uptilt and you will see more in the top corners. But it's only a little and if you were bothered by it you could change the mounting position. Mine is mounted using the metal mount that comes with the split 2, you could try mounting it in the original wizard position or wherever you like! The split 2 has a pretty wide FOV which doesn't help the frame seeing situation :-)
Nice! Did you win??
I won this race! Then every other race I got second place (usually out of four racers), just by staying in the air, I wasn't quick at all, but I'm ok at staying in the air and circulating :-) Don't know where I ended up overall, I had to miss the very last round to get to the avengers movie on time!
I've created an unlisted very short video slowing the footage down making the creature easy to spot. Ask me for the link when you're sick of searching :-)
I would so rip that racetrack with my little quad :D
You're a lot braver than me. I stay away from trees! Lol
Haha I didn't upload the video where the quad ends up stuck high up in a tree :-D
did you upgrade the fs i6 firmware the ''10 channel mod'' its really great, it allows you to use telemetry and get the controller to beep a two stage battery alarm for your quad. you can use the fs ia6b receiver but the mod on that is really impossibly delicate soldering, but the x6b and the turnigy ia6c receivers are able to do it out of the box. the upgrade also lets you change that annoying beeping from the i6, it only beeps after 10 minutes.
Thanks for the tip! I haven't done that mod but will look into it now! I just set a countdown timer on my phone. Very low tech :-)
