That guy can only be David Windestål from Sweden.....

He is more nuts about FPV-flying than anyone else on this planet.....

That's his homepage: http://rcexplorer.se

Just curious what's next....FPV on Uranus ????

i've never seen somebody so advanced have so many problems. he's a wreck most the time.... epic fail at niagra falls....... this one floated for 20 minutes without video contact going up cause a wire failed then destroyed the antenna releasing a balloon.... wth?

I've got mixed feelings about this kinda stuff..... if people freak out about a small foam plane being over 400', what about a small one at 60,000 feet? as a guy trying to promote fpv and not look like a danger to society is to forego tricks like this

wanted to send a gopro up on a balloon to show my kids, but i'm scared to do that. We find real weather balloons in the colorado river alot. I've turned in 3 over the last 15 years...... has this little foam cooler that hangs from them full of instruments, not much different than a plane i guess.

Great view up there..... i want my ashes spread from a weather balloon at 60,000

Part of me agrees with this.

Part of me says that the public finds weather balloons harmless so associating RC aircraft with the harmless machinations of a weather balloon could ease some tension a bit.

I also like the presentation, pretty pictures for the uninitiated to ogle. :)
