Heatwave... Around 30C (86F) at 6 PM (18:00)! And me in black clothes, long trousers, winter slippers... Am I crazy? Yes... Obviously... 😓🙄 Before about a year and a half I was freezing my fingers flying in a very cold day (https://www.airvuz.com/video/Frozen-fingers-frozen-batteries?id=5e1fb07dd53cc42a461651bf). Today, I am "cooking" myself during a heatwave... Don't ask me why I did this... But pants and t-shirt I had were really thin and even in this heat they are pretty comfortable, but still - they are black and only slippers I could wear that I found in my parent's house were thick, winter one... And when you need to fly, you do what you gotta do no matter if outside is "scorched earth" and no matter what you wear... And, oh boy, it was hot even in the shade where I stood most of time... So, I was wrong thinking it will be OK to fly in this clothes in that conditions... But still I did it... Video is compiled from 3 flights (oh yes - one cooking was not enough ;) ) - two from front side (HOT!) and one from back side (not so hot - lot of shades) of my parents' property. Between flights I needed to change camera because antenna broke on first one - due to heat from camera and hot sun, hot glue that was used to secure antenna become sticky and loose and everything just popped off in one crash (but spare one survived). Video is a bit color-corrected and widen into a kind of superview widescreen format with (obviously :) ) fake ambiental sound.
