I recently set-up a bullet cam helmet with a RF-concepts 21CWSHRX connected to a Sony DCR-HC32. I am having issues with a yellow discoloration of the video when transitioning between bright and darker shots during a skydive. I was wondering if anyone out there using a similar set-up have had and hopefully solved this problem. A second annoyance I'm having comes from the LANC controller. Using the LANC controller to turn the camera on sends the camera into "TAPE" mode, when I need it to go into "PLAY/EDIT" mode in order to record from the analog inputs of the bullet cam. Any help would be appreciated, -James

I also demoed the Pilot 168 and Sabre2 170 at Eloy. I'd have to say that overall they seemed fairly comparable, and both were much better than my rock-like landings under a Triathlon in no wind situations. The openings were fantastic on both canopies, about 300-400 foot snivels with no "special" treatment in packing. I made a point of this, being not the most cautious packer in the world. One final note on glide-ratio: Talking with Aubrey, it seems that the Sabre2 has a faster perceived landing speed because the Pilot has a slightly "flatter" glide ratio; a bonus when getting back from long spots. I just purchased a complete system from Aubrey, and I'm pretty sure I won't regret it.
