I just spent a day filming a maths video with a helicopter. A friend’s wife has her pilot’s licence and offered to take me for a fly if I needed a helicopter to make a video. I found a video idea to justify the flight!

Thanks to your support we could cover all the airport, fuel and film-crew costs to make (what I hope will be) an amazing video. The edit will take a while but I’m so excited and appreciative after a great day of filming I just wanted to thank you all now for making it possible.

Thanks for making it possible!

Classic maths video.

Thanks! Once the video is done you can make a final decision on the worth-it-ness.

I can't help wondering what a helicopter would look like when filmed with a camera with a rolling shutter

We actually used a fancy camera and frame rate to avoid it!

I'll have to make do with a cardboard model and a scanner then!

I..uh..would probably hold off a couple of days on releasing the helicopter content anyway. Today probably not ideal timing. 🙁

Yes, it certainly reminded us to be careful. Very sad.
