my old Trex600 did FPV just fine back in the early 2000s. i used a monitor at the time though so i could transition quickly from from FPV to LOS and take off and land easily.

[@air-headedaviator1805]

It may seem bad in y’alls experience, but the first RC camera platforms for aerial video were huge massive RC Heli’s. And they were stable! Its probably all about tune in the end.

[@NeoIsrafil]

Tune has a lot to do with it, but it's also experience. The quads do SO much for you, weve gotten spoiled with all the tech. Helis had a gyro, often mechanical, and...that was it. If you can fly a helicopter, you can fly a quad but it's not necessarily the other way around. That said, you put a modern chipset on a heli and it becomes muuuuch easier to handle.

[@Reriiru]

Heli's are inherently more stable. They are just much, much harder to control, especially the smaller you get. When you consider an unassisted quad/hex/octocopter vs an unassisted heli, then heli's much better.

[@alexgrigoreas4825]

I have been flying my 450 FPV for a couple years and I have never had the issues you guys have. Tune much? C'mon guys, do it right.

I really wish you'd used a properly tuned and well flying cp heli for this. This clearly wasn't exactly ideal, even LoS...

Nander0 true. Most of the really nice fpv stuff is with much larger helis.

[@nnsense]

That is EXACTLY the reason why I've started flying heli and I've stopped pretty much at the beginning. Also the reason why I've started this FPV thing with a FUTABA T7C (!). Basically, to fly heli, you'll pretty much lose sight of it if it is too small. So, you need that big, to be able to see what is doing, and where the tail is oriented. BUT, again, the bigger, the more expensive, and that is what happen when you crash: most of the times, almost all parts are gone, and you should not only buy everything again, wich sometimes isn't that expensive, but you cannot fly for weeks, trying to have some hour to fix it. I've left, with my TRex still in his box, and other 2 mini less than an hour of flight. Then, drones, or quad, and FPV began. Life changer! Of course it's a different thing, but at the end of the day is hard enough to be a lot interesting and fun, and way less expensive in terms of time and money.

[@diprizzle]

[@nimbuslayer5142]

Seriously, I’ve been flying FPV with my 35 pound, 2.5 meter turbine XLV since 2005. I started out on my Schluter Champion back in 1985 FPV... You guys are so behind the times😜

[@zackgarcia5465]

What I’ve done was I put a full fpv set up on a trex 700. When I say full. I mean head tracking, diversity, OSD W/BARO&COMPASS, HD... IT WORKS VERY NICELY. I went ahead and turned it into a gunship for paintball. Mounted a tippman automatic paintball gun on it and it worked perfectly! It was a gorgeous thing to fly and it kicked ass! It was very smooth. What I see in this video is that the gains were off balance and it was only trying to over compensate.

[@uavpilot6715]

I have great respect for helicopter pilots, I used to fly one back in the old days and those things are as challenging as hell to master.

[@travispratt6327]

Greg Toews ikr? I bought one awhile back and couldn’t even get the thing to hover never mind actually fly... I just assumed it was defective in some way and gave up...

[@Vousie]

@@travispratt6327 My first five or so drones were helis - back before quads existed - and they flew really easily. Wasn't 3D - heck, most of them were only 2 channel - but they flew quite nicely.

[@travispratt6327]

Vousie V Well that’s not how a real helicopter pilot flies a helicopter... I was referring to collective pitch 6ch helis that are more like how a pilot has to fly, and I’m sure op was too. I’m not sure exactly how how hard they are to fly because I never got mine to fly right, it was always like trying to stand and balance on top of an exercise ball. I did have multiple regular 3ch helis though and they’re easy and simple, basically they’re flying for you with gyro stabilization, a collective pitch 6ch 3D heli is more like a quad in acro mode, center the sticks and it won’t hover, it will just keep flying wherever it was flying, but in my experience the quad is much more predictable and stable. You control the speed of rotation of pitch yaw and roll, then on top of that have to do throttle and blade pitch. It’s by far the most challenging rc experience I’ve had, and I fly 100mph+ rc planes and do real estate videos with a dji phantom gimbal drone.

[@Vousie]

​@@travispratt6327 Yes, I know how 6ch helis fly. My point is that just because it's an RC helicopter doesn't mean it's always difficult to fly. You get different types of helis. Also, the helis I had didn't have actual gyros - this was back in 2006 when gyros were too expensive to put in toys. They literally just had a physical balance bar on the main rotor. By the way, if you can fly 100mph RC planes, then DJI Phantom is really just nothing. Those things are so overly controlled by computer algorithims that I sometimes wonder whether it even really counts as you "flying" them - it's more like the algorithm is flying it and you just give it a general direction you want it to go in.

[@travispratt6327]

Vousie V My dji can be controlled like that but that’s not how I use it, I simultaneously use throttle, yaw and gimbal to frame shots while I’m moving is one of the more challenging things with the dji. It’s easy to fly but it’s hard to manipulate to get desired results was my point with that.
As for toy grade copters, ya I know they can be easy but nobodies talking about those toy helicopters, they’re talking about 6ch helicopters that simulate a real helicopter, there’s no 2 or 3ch manned helicopters that I’m aware of, he said he’s respectful of helicopter pilots, I wouldn’t consider someone pushing up on a 2ch toy heli a helicopter pilot.

[@GiovanniEsposito5]

I started with fpv on a helicopter more than 10 years ago on a modified 450 (Align trex). It's by far the best way to enjoy piloting of a real rc platform, even if back then many things were not as good or cheap as today. It's nice to see you guys catching up...

Something the multirotor guys might not be aware of is that you have to balance the center of gravity planes and helicopters for them to fly well.
That horrible porpoising this thing had, in heli/plane world that is a really clear sign of being tail-heavy. When they took the battery off of the front and put it on the bottom, they were making the helicopter incredibly unstable; it's a miracle of modern engineering the flight controller could control that thing at all.

Just outorotate

[@keithwhisman]

You can get 6 angle Flybarless units with GPS units that changes any RC helicopter into a drone that’s locked in that can fly themselves and can be programmed to autonomously fly a course. I love RC helicopters and that was a very minor crash that looked like maybe, maybe $20 for new landing skids if you can’t mend your broken skids and the boom support. The boom support saved your tail boom saving you the effort of replacing the boom. Main gear is roughly $5, servo gear kits for sub micro servos are roughly $15 from Horizon Hobby. That was a good crash. If your feather spindle is still true and main shaft is still true you’re all good but a good rule of thumb is to not chance it and replace the feather spindle and main shaft after every crash to give you some piece of mind. I’ve had many minor crashes and the heli just didn’t fly good till I replaced the main shaft and feather spindle. The slightest bend in either will give you issues. The same is true for the tail feather spindle. Helps are great and I really wish people wouldn’t down talk RC helis scaring people away. RC helicopters are far more rewarding to fly as they are extremely hard to fly. Drones are nothing like RC helicopters so please don’t even try to compare them. I am very passionate about my hobby and just want to see more people try helis out because they are a huge challenge. The thing is that any one can pick up a drone and fly it with ease, a helicopter is a skill that requires a lot of training and learning. If you really want a challenge come to helis. If you want to just play around buy a drone but don’t you dare put helis down.

[@ericmaggard6182]

I think that Heli is a blade 450x. I flew one for years. The battery is supposed to be mounted up front. The battery mounted underneath like that would make the CG extremely tail heavy and probably while it flew like poop.

You could select cockpit view in the heli sims way back in the day before FPV and Quads even were a thing . I used to sim in FPV view a lot when flying helis and was one of the first things I did when 1.3 ghz VTXs and cameras got small . Scale flying is more suited for FPV helis though. Easy to fly quads were boring but lately have become more agile and entertaining with the racing and DJI HD capabilities . Still want to put a DJI Air unit in one of my scale Hughes 500s though :)

Totally disoriented to the point of having remove the Goggles because i got sick.... But forward flight was really cool and i have been flying FPV with my Goblin 380 and it's really fun flying Low to the ground and fast. He has done fpv with the bigger birds at low head speed running 6s on a 12s rig.
That heli is poorly setup because they are extremely smooth in forward flight and with a proper collective curve holding your altitude is not hard. The 700 is much much smoother then the 380 but the 380 is so lightning quick on response.

Make you reakcion video on the hubsan x4 h122d storm advanced?

There is nothing more exhilarating than flying an RC Heli the first time. Just hovering the first time is SUCH a rush. But like you said, that is why I moved to drones. One little blip in a heli means a 2 hours repair session.

I've been doing this since early spring on a couple different platforms. So far my favorite has been the goblin fireball. I'm setting it up with crossfire right now 😎

Great video. So glad you tried flying a heli FPV. I have been flying my TRex 450 FPV for years. It is a nice challenge compare to flying quads, although it does not fly anywhere near as well as a quad does. You should definitely do more videos with helis.

Great video! Maybe a FPV RC Boat :)

Ya'll need a better chopper for this. I'd happy do it on a glow or turbine chopper if I had one.
Also, if you think that's bad to fix, I hope you never crash a balsa-and-ply fixed wing bird.........

Sure wish we could do more investigation with the 450 and a flight controller, probably running Beta or even a Naza Heli-H ...
