    I'm going to venture a guess here and say this was made with an omnidirectional camera. They oriented the shot afterwards. Having offered that option, it may very well be that they just killed it and that's it. Great shots anyway!

    It really is the best RC ever, not just a ground effect vehicle. I hope the major corporations see his and mass produce something similar. It would be so fun to have an FPV ground effect vehicle. You guys outdid yourselves with this one. It's also not only functional, it's a work of art! Watching it fly in the ground effect, is the most relaxing thing ever. Game changer!
