Maule M7 uphill landing

This was a fun spot to land. It was 130’ long with a steep slope to help get stopped and also accelerate quickly on takeoff.

Yes, uphill landings rock! As do downhill takeoffs, safer in many regards I believe. Nice vid =D>

Your M7 has much bigger testicles than mine but I'm thrilled they have the same genes.

Nice work!

Thanks! Is the speed overlay a function of the camera or editing software?

Re: Maule M7 uphill landing

When I open the GoPro footage in the GoPro app the speed is an option as an overlay.

Re: Maule M7 uphill landing

I got that same rush of blood/adrenaline from watching this as I remember getting when taking off in similar conditions- (short, downhill). There's nothing quite like the feeling of taking off and feeling the vibes from the bushwheels rotating with nothing but air beneath them!

Im a big fan of the camera angle! Nice
