Awww thanks, wish I hadn't fried the 1st VTX - those little jumper zero Ohm connectors looked just like unconnected pads without looking with magnification. The TX16s multiprotocol binds to the helicopter too - I hope to do a follow up flight here with far better control and being able to fly out a bit further. The video quality was rather good - surprised me!
A little but to be completely the helicopter is such a toy it's not a lot of fun to fly around anyway. I just wanted to try and shoehorn a halfway decent FPV camera and VTX into it.
I started FPV in 2006, and this looks like the same quality footage :-)
Yep! Dreadful, but at least there's more than 5 FPS and a decent field of view!! :)
Great idea Caroline, not sure the walkers past wanted. Great flight as well. 🫡
They loved it! They were on their way to the off-licence for breakfast :)
Awesome work. That wifi camera was the pits - but I couldn't be bothered to make that much effort to swap it out. Glad you did !

Wobbly take off I’d love to have seen a ground view of that from a different camera
The park is rather known for drunks - you will see a couple of them at the end. Wasn't going to risk a camera that I couldn't watch over :)
@@Caroline_Tyler oh blimey I spotted them, thought they were pals of yours spotting!! Be careful chick 😘
Very cool, nice work converting it to "real" FPV... lol I'm sure it's a lot more fun to fly too!
On the wi-fi video it was not flyable as an fpv helicopter, now ..it is! :)
Thank you for the detailed explanation! Makes the drone fly able in my sense! Have you noticed any reduction in battery

Very cool 👍🏽
Cheers! I have the TX16s sucessfully bound to the heli now so next flight I hope will be easier to control. The TX supplied with it is truly awful.
Ooh the heli!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Nothing like a bit of micro surgery!
awesome project :) loved it
It was a fun thing to try!
Cracking job
Thanks! This FPV works unlike the Wi-Fi jobby it comes with.
