My first attempt at night flying. Had mixed results. GoPro2 performed well at dusk. The CCD camera I used at night had lots of static in the video and audio. It was flyable, but not ideal. I'll try and SN555 camera next time. My friend used that one and it was much clearer. I used the Penguin from ReadyMadeRC for this flight. The runway lights are cheap LED flashlights I got from Fry's electronics and Costco here in Northern California. Flight was made at the Cayote Dry Lake in the Mojave desert.
