If you're wondering why the right side is higher, I'm pretty sure that's intentional since signs are on the right and oncoming traffic is on the left (don't want to blind them). I think a friend once told me as well that the bump should line up with the stripes on the road for easy centering. I've never tested it but if it helps, mine are the same way.

If you're talking about something else and I missed it, nevermind!

Good turnout out tonight. Had some decent runs with @nelsmar after the meet. Surprisingly the runs were very close. Vids should be up soon. All runs were done in Mexico for the record.

Depending on the distance that headlight aim was taken at... looks pretty good to me.

And damn... Long ass drive to mexico -.- One of these days the drag strip will just open back up so we dont have to drive so far lol.

So after speaking with @IceFyre13th last night we all have to do another drive. He has his other another quad copter (three blades actually) that will do 80mph and flys and much higher altitudes.

We discussed a tortilla flats run with a huge caravan of us. He could aerial shots of the entire group pretty much going up the road. It also has a gimble that would allow for a good camera to be mounted. It can also use gps to track, hell we could even look for traffic ahead.

I think that think at an autocorss event to get from above video would be awesome as well.

We could also get an awesome voltron configuration this way too.

This was at around 25 feet. Not exactly.

When I reaimed them i was perfectly at 25 feet. My headlights are 23.5 inches off of the ground so the beam sits 21.5 inches from the ground. Also my headlights are roughly 52 inches apart and at 25 feet the beams are 52 inches apart roughly.

That's awesome. Tortilla flats would look cool, ,but more and more MCSO are patrolling out there.

Its summer time... on the weekends kids go out there and do stupid things. And there is a lot of boat traffic. In the winter there is less traffic and is typically patrolled less. They are just trying to keep an eye out and keep things safe as phone service etc is poor out there. It is best to go mid week in the evening when there is little to no boating going on.
