Flying... >:}
Hello all!
 I am trying to make a flying system for one person, and I was just wondering if any of you had any advise! I found this google book: http://books.google.com/books?id=B4a...cover#PPA68,M1 It is definitely giving me some ideas, but I am trying to do this on the cheap (and the safe, of course). Does anyone know where I can find dirt cheap harnesses (I will take used as long as there is nothing wrong with the functionality. I do not want to put my actors in harm's way!!!  )Thanks!

Flying can't be cheap.
But, please. I don't mind if you prove me wrong.

when you've got the kit working you can use it for simulating low gravity too. By (OK I know this is a bit obvious) getting the counterweight to be just a bit lighter than the actor. Should make for very little grip as actors try running along a mineshaft – not that it would fit.
