IT JUST SEEMS TO GO UP SPIN AND GO DOWN rubbish try the V-JET FULL TILT now that works
you seem to have experience with rc heli’s , and yet all i see you do is go up and down and in circles . does this bird do anything else ,like go forward or reverse and go left and right.if so can you post a video of it doing so . thanks
it just spins! not very stable.
LOL these people don’t know what you mean by tilt. The real Osprey rotars rotate a full 90 degrees to face foward.
@DavidBJ100 Initially we had trouble adjusting that spin out when trying to hover it. Eventually we were able stop the spin by gently toggling it the opposite direction of the spin. This seemed to only be a problem outdoors; it was not an issue for us inside.
Also, when you throttle it up in the forward direction, this spin should disappear.
In this video when I say that the rotors don’t tilt, I am talking about tilting forward to the real flight position for the V-22 Osprey.
@BeanMeister22 Hey BeanMeister, David J here! Thanks for posting this video as it helped me decide what my first heli would be. I’m having a hard time adjust the trim as the bird seems to spin to the left just like in your video. Outside of flying with the right rudder engaged constantly any suggestions on fixing the problem? I am excited about this new hobby and can’t wait to master the techniques. As you say the rotors tilt for flight adjustment, but the video does say they don’t move.

@ethandrum Hey Ethan, David J here. I just received my Art-Tech V-22 and took it for its first test flight. I am new at this RC stuff and this is my first bird. When the bird is on the ground and rotors are spinning, I pushed the throttle forward and the rotors tilted forward ever so slightly perhaps as much as 5 degrees. The opposite effect was noticeable when pulling back on the throttle as well. I was glad to see there was some tilt rather than a fixed position as the video indicates.
@ethandrum If that is the case, I think you misunderstood what was said in the video. The rotors tilt to adjust flight, but they do not tilt like the rotors on a real V-22.
It sais they both tilt differently on the art tech website. I also happen to know a lot about the V-22 Osprey and the CV-22 Osprey, for your information. I know this RC model has a length of 13.4 inches, the weight is 12.35 oz, and has a control range of 330 degree feet. The maximum speed is 463 km/h on the real thing, and that each rotor diameter is38 feet. It is possible that the website has false advertising, but I highly doubt it. Look it up on the art tech website under the features of it.
@ethandrum Do you know what a real V-22 Osprey is? It is a tilt rotor aircraft that can take off vertically like a helicopter, and then the rotor tilts 90 degrees and it can then fly like a transport plane. This RC unit does not do this.
I checked out the website, and the rotors do tilt differently, unlike what the person describes in the video.
@wun1gee Yes it is a 4 channel, yes it has full control, and yes it flies forward. The reason you always see them not flying forward, is that the people flying them are new to these things, and they are trying to keep them in a small area for filming.
How does it handle forward flight? Thinking of picking one up, but I haven’t seen a single video where it wasn’t just sort of going up and down and spinning. I’m assuming it’s 4-channel? Does the pitch have any authority at all?
@MontagHeidi I have not seen this model any where except Banana Hobby.
can someone tell me where to buy one for less than bananhobby pls!.
It’s very tempting. I’d like to see more forward flight and less up and down, up and down.
@BeanMeister22 There Is A Site Cheaper Ill Pm Address
@austonie10 It is not cheap, but for what it is, that is really a pretty good price. Where else can someone get something as real looking as this, for this kind of price?
@DoctorTankEngine My collection grows smaller every time I fly them:)
For the most part, the ones that are still intact after I am done filming them, get given away to friends because I don’t really have the time to fly them.
@bullardsJoe
That is really cool!
Now this may sound a bit funny, but stick with me here…I think a awesome addition to the Osprey, would be that Gatling gun from the A-10 Warthog. That would be the complete package, Marines in the back and the GAU-8 Avenger in the front; truly a force to be reckoned with:)
My dad used to work for Bell when they were perfecting and researching this awesome flyer. I have calendars all the way back to the early 60’s with pics of the V-22. Actually got to sit in one but not fly.
