This video is way too cool. It's amazing what is being done with miniaturization these days.

Reminds me of my paragliding days.

I spent many hours soaring with hawks along ridge lines and chasing goats down steep mountainsides.

Very cool. Beautiful bird. Now, if you could just control its flight, think of the military possibilities for reconnaissance...

i am so ★■◆●ing sick and tired of movies being imbedded into flash. so i can't save them.

does anyone know howto rip the movies outof this thing?

TigerRaptor · Post by **TigerRaptor** » Wed Dec 08, 2004 12:05 am

Roid just go into your internet temp folder to get the files. Iâ??ve all ready cut and pasted these files to another part of my hard drive.

Edit: Or are you talking about extracting the movie its self from the flash file.

roid · Post by **roid** » Wed Dec 08, 2004 12:26 am

waaaaah

i don't know if it's possible to access mozilla's cache.

TigerRaptor · Post by **TigerRaptor** » Wed Dec 08, 2004 12:33 am

I'll send you the files then. PM me another e-mail address if you have one. I don't think your hotmail account has enough space for 6 flash movies.

neat, i found out howto access mozilla's cache via aunty google.

oh i'd better add my bit in too...

cool vids. i watch this show every sunday night with the family, it's on free to air tv.
mmm british sunday documentarys.

i think the last one i saw had this desert spider at night thumping it's feet to use echo-location in the sand, to find it's way via landmarks (grass tufts etc). it couldn't see ★■◆●. amazing.

I actually really liked the video embedded into Flash. You didn't have to worry about if you had the right player, whatnot. It was really nice.

I wonder how much one of those cameras costs....

roid · Post by **roid** » Wed Dec 08, 2004 7:59 am

i'm wondering the same thing, imagine what you could do with it. put one on a paper airplane

.

it's so complete, batterys and everything (we assume).

Nitrofox125 · Post by **Nitrofox125** » Thu Dec 09, 2004 12:51 am

I have soooo many uses for something like that.....

And seriously, in the name of science too, just imagine where you could put that thing to get a view, like Roid said, on a paper airplane, or even on some remote control car. You could do stuff like mount it on the front of a car to get some pretty cool shots. Meh who knows I would have so much fun with that. If it's under a grand I might go get one...

The eagle always carried a little pack on his belly or his back. I reckon it's the battery...
