(solved) 03 - The Cove

[drdavid]

Same as Zaphoon - whales 1 and 2 filmed then looked north of wreck - found 2 whales but no indication of filming. After 15 minutes the Oil warning light comes on! And then the video camera screen (insert) goes blank...
Can I just go back to base? Wish I had floats on this helo!
Cheers - Dai.

Did you check your map (M) for a hint on where they may be cruising?

Hello,
I am also stuck at this.
I have followed the boat. Then I found the whales and let Kelly make fancy pictures of those. After that I am told to look for more whales. I traveled to the marker and found them BUT, Kelly is not filming them. I flew around them from all angles. I flew low, I flew high. I flew directly above them, I kept some vertical distance to them, no avail. I am sure, that I am at the right koordinates, I can see the models of the whales in the water. Can't even scare them away, almost landed on one of them, but nothing happens. I do not see what to do here.

Regards

Did you try hovering near them (~150m distance / 50m altitude) so that they were on your right side and Kelly could see them? Try filming another group first perhaps (though the order does not matter).

Now I have figured it out...
I was hovering over the whales I had videotaped previously.

Thanks for the headsup. Simple case of 'user too stupid'
