Being in Sydney this week with some spare time on the week end, I decided to travel with a Flowform 16, a Beak, a “peanut”, a Samsung NV 10, some gloves and line to try to target the Sydney Opera House.
First of all I did not suspect the wind to be that strong ( 20 to 25 knots) and the FF 16 was a bit too large.
Second I did not know that flying a kite over the opera House was forbidden and I found out when two policemen came to see what I was doing, same for the Sydney Police Department helicopter which in less that 5 minutes was patrolling over the opera.
Third, Auto Kap is still new to me and my angle was too low…
Fourth, flying a camera hanged on a kite over a crowd of visitors is much more stressful than flying over the water…
Unfortunately it did not last very long and the results are rather poor… a good pretext to go back tomorrow morning before the security and police patrol the premises… Hopefully more to come !!!
Unfortunately the wind was too unstable and strong to try to make a panorama.
