Hi Rich, I'm totally interested. What is your e-mail? I would like some details as well.

Thanks,
David

OK now I'm impressed...took me about 10 minutes to mount my HMC-150 to the b-bird and get it balanced. While it's too heavy for long shots, it's nice to know it works! Gotta save up for a vest/arm! (or go to the gym...might be cheaper!)

Just another test of the blackbird. No more uncontrolled leaning. My walk has a bit of bob to it on this one but it's much better than my first flights.
