By the point winter rolls around, Alistair Roberts will probably remember his summer vacation a heckuva lot better than the remainder of us. Why? Because he brought an FPV plane to record his mountain biking holiday within the Spanish sun. With a GoPro camera mounted at the servo-powered cradle, Alistair piloted the plane by moving his head and using a handheld remote control — all while streaming first person video from the cockpit right into a pair of goggles. By pairing the high tech toy with another GoPro on his dad’s mountain bike, and a stationary camera at the ground, Alistair was ready to create a really amazing vacation video from 1200 – 1500 feet within the air traveling around 20kmph (12mph) — way cooler than any of those our dads recorded back within the day. Look at the video after the break.
