I was flying this afternoon at the former industrial estate called 'De boelwerf' in Temse. These days it has been turned into an extension of Temse's town centre.

Gestel

A red Kite, No wind and  a GoPro.
The task:  Try to get the kite as high as possible by walking the kite, At a certain height give a lot of line so that the kite is dropping out of the air and try to make a picture of the kite carrying your GoPro without crashing...
