NOT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEMyRadar Creates Aviation VR Experience at Sun 'N Fun International Expo April 4, 2017-Orlando, FL-- MyRadar, the popular weather app that provides real-time, animated weather radar specific to the user's immediate area, announces today the premiere of the MyRadar VR Aviation Experience at this year's Sun 'N Fun International Fly-In and Expo. "We've really been looking forward to Sun-n-Fun this year. I'm a huge aviation buff, as a pilot, myself," said Andy Green, CEO of ACME. "MyRadar is a perfect fit for any pilot on the go looking for a quick-reference pre-flight checkup on flight conditions before hitting the runway... and the VR experience we're showcasing this year is a phenomenal way for everybody to see what it's like first-hand in the seat of a real acrobatic plane. We are proud to sponsor 2015 National and 2016 European Air Race Champion, Scott Farnsworth. Scott pilots the MyRadar XtremeAir XA42 throughout the US and Europe competing in low-level pylon racing and helped us capture all the amazing footage for the VR Experience." The MyRadar VR Experience, produced by bRandom Media, will transform a 35 foot bus into a complete VR experience with installation with two rooms and a choice of five different virtual reality experiences. The VR pilot is strapped tightly into the front seat of the most advanced certified aerobatic aircraft currently available. The MyRadar VR Experience showcases footage taken from inside the cockpit of the MyRadar Race #38 XtremeAir, piloted by National Air Race Champion Scott Farnsworth as he does everything from 360 freestyle acrobatics, flying barely above Nevada's Pyramid Lake at over 230 mph, to executing a Hammerhead and Tail-sliding thrill ride. The VR pilot will experience the thrill of 10G maneuvers as the XtremeAir's 315hp engine pulls its carbon fiber body through the sky.The footage was shot with the OZO Nokia camera and will be viewed through a 4k Pimax VR headset. Attendees will be able to see and feel what it's like to take on death defying stunts inside the most advanced certified aerobatic aircraft on the market. This thrilling experience was produced by utilizing the best technology available today.."This VR experience installation isn't for the faint of heart. Scott shows off high speed acrobatics, flying through boulders on the bank of a lake, and more," said Brandon Kelly, Owner of bRandom Media. "We are taking the experience to the next level with this installation. Turning a normal bus into another world for viewers is accomplished through top of the line headsets, realistic design of the interior, and racecar style seating." The MyRadar Aviation VR Experience installation will be open to attendees of the Sun 'N Fun Expo April 4-9th in Lakeland, FL. Following the event, this thrilling experience will be available online for anyone with access to a VR headset or Google Cardboard.
