Lama Turbine RC Heli – Almost Done!
Almost there! John’s busy schedule hasn’t left him much time to work on the heli. This is one of the final setup flights of John’s awesome Vario SA315B Lama Turbine Heli. The Lama is very close to completion and almost all of the systems have been tested and checked out. The next video will show the Lama with its scale cockpit, pilot and passengers and with any luck, all the loose ends will have been taken care of. Phil from Leisure Tech Products was on hand to pilot the heli and to assist in the set up. The location for this test flight was at Ridge Flyers in Delta, BC John didn’t take any shortcuts with this build and we’ll take the time in a future video to walk you through all the features and components. We’ll also give you a closer look at the amazing custom paint job laid down by Jeremy of LGM Graphix . For now, here is a short list of some of the major components: Owner/Builder: John P.

World’s 2nd Best RC Helicopter Onboard Video! No FPV! Insane 3D Camera Almost Crash Auto Car Heli
“juz70” has shown me a better non-FPV vid. (FPV= First Person View = Flying with video goggles, another class of winging!) I think a RC helicopter onboard video consists of: 1) Picture Quality (Vibrations, …) 2) Editing (Cutting, music,…) 3) Pilot skills (Alan Szabo,….) 4) Location (Grand Canyon, ….) 5) Creativity (Chasing cars, opening fire rockets…) 6) Thrill (High speed humble go through, almost crash….) So if Alan Szabo puts an onboard camera on his heli, flying at a field, you only get ill, but it is not the best onboard video 😉 Footage of “Insane 3D Aerobatics” vid admitted because it got barricaded for many countries- copyrighted song Guns ‘N Roses- Paradise City Music: 1) Seventh– Decide 2) Seventh– Overdose Setup: Standard Thunder Tiger Mini Titan E325 Aluminum rotor head Aluminum washout base Kontronik Jazz 40-06-18 Hacker A20-6XL Kokam 2100 11,1V 30C H5 3x Thunder Tiger C1016 1x Futaba S3114 Robbe- Futaba GY-240 Hyperion 325 Carbon Fiber Blades Align Tail Rotor Blades for T-Rex 450 (plastic) Graupner- JR MX-16S, 40 Mhz Graupner- JR R16-SCAN Approx. 2800 rpm at head Weight 942 g with bettered FlyCamOne2 Improved FlyCamOne2: Replaced the accu with a 1400 mAh Cell, weighs now 62 g (+21g)
Here’s the Flight Sim page at www.iheartheli.com Hi, Richard here from iheartheli.com. I am of course a desirous rc heli fan. I made up one’s mind to seek and program a flight sim that you could run in a browser window utilizing svg and javascript. Here is what I came up with so far (totally a beta prototype). It was even fun before I appended gravity, so i have appended buttons to turn on/off gravity! Warning it is not easygoing! Not extreamly down-to-earth either yet, but it is difficult and was definitely artful to code. Left stick is keys a,s,d & w, where an and s are rudder, s and w are throttle. Right stick is j,k,l,& i, where j and l are ailerons, i and k are elevator. Be at the ready to append throttle proper away when you turn gravity on! There is no ground so it just starts falling unless you push the w key about 8 times quickly. Also, it starts out nose in. You have to get utilized to nose-in right away. You might desire to spin around it around getting down out. If you misplace track of it you can always reload using the F5 key. Next I have to program an idle-up switch. Check it out dwell. Oh yea, it does not work in firefox, even though I can run it locally using firefox. It seems to run best in Google’s Chrome browser. download chrome! www.google.com It may not work on Internet Explorer without the SVG viewer activeX object from adobe. Here is a link to get it: www.adobe.com Just scroll down the page and happen your running system. Don’t see vista there, vista users may be out of the loop. Here’s the Flight Sim page ..
