[Lowfer] U.A.V. antenna launcher....

[Warren]

Hi Dave,

    No string, this was a test run with just the Go-Pro camera. The pilot 
and owner has apparently had this for a while and has uploaded several 
videos he made with this setup to Youtube.

   He should be uploading the video from this morning's flight to Youtube, 
will send along the link when I get it.
The video I linked to was taken by me with my digital camcorder.

Warren
