@magicmike1122 i use expensive carbon fiber blades, they are balanced perfectly
but at the maiden flight i have used align 325 pro blades, i have balanced them with some tape until the vibrations disappeared
“YTSchim” uses the Funcopter, it’s very durable but there are problems with vibrations, but I think he got it fixed now
I think hovering in fpv is the way to go, but speed is also a must! it’s geting harder and harder to decide where to start lol.. I’m going to start with a tri, care of dadde :o)
Great stuff muni!
awsome! how does the heli fpv compare to aeroplane? im looking forward to my first fpv it should be very soon, just gota finish the aiframe and get the video range sorted ..
Nice flight…awesome fpv heli!!! Nice to see that ya didn’t loose signal this time!!! 🙂 I bet one of your new mods will be that gps that brings it back if you go out of range!!?? Great video…thanks for posting!!!!
@MadGilly I was max. 200m away 😉
But I have extended the receiver antenna to Lamda/4= 1,75m
The weird thing is that the receiver has a 1m antenna (length for 35 MHz) although it’s 40 MHz, it looks like Graupner/JR doesn’t care about the antenna length….
Yes I think the reason for the crash at 300m was the incorrect antenna lenght, now I can go more than 200m away (could not see the heli anymore) with retracted transmitter antenna
@YTschim mit 1040g und dem großen Landegestell fliegt er wie ein Bus…..
Natürlich hab ich nur 7° pitch und kleine Servoausschläge mit viel Expo
Ich hab ihn jetzt umgebaut auf 969g, sollte viel besser fliegen aber vorm Schweben/Landen hab ich schon Angst, vor allem wegen dem originalen Mini Titan Landegestell
toll! schaut sehr stabil aus der Mini Titan. Mein MT ist ja leider gecrasht – aber vielleicht sollte ich ihn auch wieder flott machen und dann FPV damit fliegen (der Funcopter ist zwar problemloser aber ned so agil). Hatte heute auch wieder 2 flüge damit – aber nicht in so spektakulärem gebiet (Windräder).
Dafür bin ich mit meiner Stryker so um die 100km/h ziemlich niedrig geflogen – würde Dir auch gefallen…
wow the lift speed is tremendous
Subscribe if you want to see a flight THROUGH a 138m tall crane with a RC helicopter (need some time for? video editing) 😀
you need to put some hellfire missles on your planes and heli’s
How much was the helicopter???
i can use some help setting up my fpv ..

hey how are you getting rid of vibrations?
Also do you think the funcopter would be a good heli for fpv?
sehr schön!

@batzellaspain The Go! Team- Junior Kickstart
I like much your video. What song is that? Thank you very much
@snowman3514 heli flying is easier because you can’t have a stall but the landing is harder

Awesome videos muni86! Would love to see one with the heli hovering outside the window of an occupied skyscraper..’Blue Thunder style’, lol
So awesome.
Nice
Very cool man! Keep posting videos!
Who clicked dislike????
that thing can climb!!!!
drahá sranda:)

Great !! How did you manage to sort your range problems out ? Loved it when you were looking a the wind turbine :0)
