Stylish Goggles Hey? |
Okay, I have to award my wife another goody point (not sure what she's going to do with them all, but looking forward to finding out!). For my
birthday, she got me a set of goggles. Now these aren’t ordinary goggles, they
don’t just keep the wind off your eyes, make you look stylish, keep the water
out of your eyes etc. etc. etc. These goggles allow you to experience flight as
if you are inside your quad copter!
In The Zone LOL |
I did a couple of flights the other day of combines
harvesting in the field, it is the video in the previous post, and after the
flights when I flipped the goggles up and was back in the real world, I was actually
dizzy for a few seconds as if I had been in the air! I had been inside the copter zooming, spinning, flying low/high/slow/fast with full instrumentation ... all from my electric wheelchair hundreds of yards away! What a rush!
This is one way that nearly anybody can safely experience flight firsthand, it is so real that you are there in the pilot seat
including altimeter, speed, distance, heading etc. What a great thing for
people with disabilities!
