Waukegan Harbor: Kite Aerial Photography

I had recently upgraded my Remote Control hardware use the Aurora 9 Transmitter and Optima receivers specifically for my Y6 Scarab MultiWiiCopter project, and decided to include using this with my Kite Aerial Photography Rig. 2011 was a year where I used my AutoKap rig 90% of the time, with the only session I can remember using my remote control rig was for the WWKAP Banner project. I wanted to get back to using RC, so I bought a 6 channel Optima Receiver and updated my Brooxes deluxe KAP kit.

Here are some images from last Sunday using the remote control rig, a Flow Form 32, and a Sony NEX-5. Without being able to pan and tilt the camera, I wouldn't have been assured these images.
