Navion Videos!

NavionInfo now has the ability to embed videos right in the post! Simply paste the URL directly into the message field. To demonstrate, here's David Wakefield's excellent airplane from AOPALive's YouTube Channel---

By URL do you mean the video has to be posted on a website like Youtube versus just on your phone or computer? I tried posting a video as an attachment but none of the video files on my phone showed up.

That's right. I saw your videos on IV earlier -- pretty cool! I was going to ask you to post them here. However, I don't think you can direct post videos here (yet). They have to be on a third party site like YouTube (or even Facebook), and you can share the link here. When you paste the link into the message body here, it will embed the video automatically.

One note about Facebook, though -- I believe the video's privacy settings have to be set to Public in order to share them here. I know you cannot share a video here that is in a closed group (already tried with Shane's).

If you want to e-mail your video(s) to admin@navioninfo.com , we can upload them to our private YouTube channel and paste in here. Or, of course, you could quickly set up your own YouTube and just leave it private if you want. Then share the link here

Unlisted youtube videos should work as well. I typically upload videos this way so that I can share them with select groups but they aren't otherwise publicly searchable. Not that there's anything in my videos that would be an issue, I just prefer not to be un-necessarily conspicuous.

Here's one from a go-pro mounted to the canopy t-handle. Easily off the ground before the end of the 500' threshold at KCFJ.
