Wonderful new videos of Sinus

Team Pipistrel Switzerland and customers from Brasil just made our day by sending us these amazing videos.

Below you can see the video of Sinus motorglider flying over the Alps in Switzerland.
The shots, made with the help of a wing-mounted camera gimbal, are just amazing!

Thanks, guys!

Two great videos were submitted by our customers from Brasil. This one shows beautiful scenes above Rio de Janeiro:

A flight over the west side of Rio de Janeiro

The video below was made by Mr.Morrison, who flew from Rio de Janeiro (CEU Club) to Campo de Marte (inside S.Paulo city),
a distance of approximately 400 km.

These videos confirm that the Pipistrel aircraft are ideal for aerial photography.

Pipistrel's best-seller model, the Sinus, is just perfect for this purpose.
Here are some of the reasons that make the Sinus one of the best aircraft on the market for aerial photography:
-very short take off distance
-it climbs incredibly well (climb rate at 140 km/h 6,3 m/sec) up to 8.000 meters
-low mininum speed (65 km/h) gives you plenty of time to focus on detail
-high maximum horizontal speed (220 km/h) enables you to arrive wherever you want fast
-it uses less than 10 liters of gasoline per hour.

-It is practically noiseless once in the air (so you won't scare the animals you're out to photo)
-the gliding ratio almost 1:30 offers you the best possible safety if you fly over the areas without the possibility of emergency landing

And best of all (this is a real bonus for the photographers):
-the high wing configuration offers you the unobstructed visibility towards the ground and in all directions around you.
-there is an option of installing a larger panoramic window,
-there is an option of ordering an aircraft with an already installed wing camera gimbal,
-the door can be easily removed in as little as 30 seconds (and flying without a side door is perfectly safe, so you don't need to worry about reflections!)
-it is also possible to OPEN and CLOSE the side door mid-flight! (at low speeds).

What more can you wish for?
