FPV 4: Lower, closer, goalposts!

My fourth FPV video summing up the last 6 weeks. I'm getting more and more comfortable being closer to the ground, especially since I bashed my falcon up a bit and realised it can take a bit of a beating.
Highlights of this video would have to be the goals on our sportsfield, and flying at night for the first time (ok it was dusk, but it was too dark to see the plane LOS)
Enjoy!

Actually it can't be thaaat expensive since I'm a uni student and I manage... A basic setup is around a few hundred dollars, then you just add bit by bit as you get the money. A lot of time involved, too, and a lot of patience
I also do a lot of things to save money, like using an ancient futaba transmitter (with dragonlink on the back) for control, repairing some 2nd hand video goggles off ebay and mounting these into a pair of ski goggles.

Yeah one day I hope to get a microlight or something, but right now I just don't have the budget. Also you can't fly a microlight through a set of goalposts

Unlike the Aussies who haven't heard about a crossbar yet and still use wide posts which we dropped about 100 years ago

can you tell me what video gear you run on the plane ? thanks.

thanks
