FPV Formation & Tree Dodging

by StoneBlueAirlines | November 26, 2012 | (6) Posted in Just Fun

Out once again flying FPV. StoneBlue got with iBcrazy for some fun flying. Put the camera on iBcrazys wing to capture some footage of my wing. We got some good footage of my wing and then some tree dodging late into the evening with my Specter. Enjoy.

All my FPV gear came from: www.videoaerialsystems.com

Planes: Spector
Scratch Build Wing from Dollar Tree Foam

Radio: Futaba T6EXA Radio
Receiver: Coronal RP6D1

Thanks for checking out my channel and I hope you enjoy the video. I look forward to posting more on what I am doing in the RC aviation world.

Luka,

I have been flying LOS for maybe 6 years but FPV only a few months now. I started scratch building just this past year in the foam board too. It is all lots of fun.

The first couple of months of fpving is fun and every tree dodged for a meter felt like victory. Now I am flying more that 6 months and I can squeze my wing in every hole between the trees and corners I can find at 100kmh, and you will too. The learning curve in fpv is really steap and fun.
The simple kfh type planes are easy to make, but once you upgrade to a well crafted and balanced performance wing you will never go back.

I feel like in a few months so much has changed and my reaction time and just knowing the airplane has changed so much. Its only going to get better. My issue is wanting to goof off and wreck my planes rather than fly but going low and goofing off is really fun. High run and distance has its place but I think 90% of everyone does that so its not as interested as low to the ground stuff. Its all just fun no matter how you look at it.
