RE: Verbolten
That's excessive to put all those parks under one social media entity.
I really don't care or need info from Facebook or Twitter updates for parks that I rarely visit and I don't really want them to litter my social media news feed.

RE: Verbolten
That would mean having updates from all the parks when you most people would only need 1 or 2.
I say they just let me take over their social department. Whoever does it now clearly has no idea how the process works.
Actually, I vote Shafor.

RE: Verbolten
If anyone was wondering, it isn't possible to get on Carter's Grove Country Road to get a glimpse of the track in the employee lot (with a car that is....). Both of the entrances are blocked (the Ron Springs Dr. entrance with a chain and the S. England St. entrance with a gate - due to the residency of a Bruce Hornsby. If anyone lives on Kingsmill or has access (like I do - friend lives there), you can park at the Wareham's Pond Pool and walk to the CGC Rd.

Cool... Thanks... I was thinking and thought that maybe someone could build a r/c airplane with a camera on it... The plane would have to have good range because you would have to fly it off bgw property... Or, if you had a good bit of money, you could buy this drone (www.sensefly.com/products/swinglet-cam/ ) and have it fly over bgw remotely

RE: Verbolten
That's a rather epic idea. I would love to see BGW's reaction to that one.

^That one is pretty damn expensive.... I've heard that there is one you can buy for cheaper though. I'll have to see about finding it again.

There are wifi radios out there that can get you to up to 2-3 miles line of sight...

RE: Verbolten
If anyone is really interested in doing this (which, knowing BGWFans, someone is) the best solution I've found (for the money) would be to strap one of these to one of these. That would give you about 25 minutes of flight time with a maximum range of about 1000 meters recorded in 720p HD at 30FPS. Not bad for under $200. The video looks pretty good too. Demo

RE: Verbolten
That is actually the one I was talking about.
Swift, sounds like a good idea - I'm going to look more in depth into it, but the money is definitely an issue. If anyone decides to do this though and need a good starting point for flight, I can get that person into Kingsmill, near the back of the Busch - right behind Drachen Fire's old site.

Anybody work in the military around here? They could just to some drone "training" over BG.

If anyone cares to see the drop section in action, I would suggest watching this from IAAPA yesterday. The Zierer section starts at like 9:05
