V-22 Osprey By Art Tech: First Flight

[MP519Rovin]

JUST LIKE IN CALL OF DOOTY

[PyroBassFisherman]

good point, always more fun to have a nicely scaled parkflyer.

[Austin9978com]

i could imagine one day one motor burns out while in flight next thing you know your holding your hands out trying to catch it with out hurting yourself

[CorbinDallas10]

Um, It would only be cool if it's props could go forward so it flys like a REAL Osprey

[1JOHNBOY213]

haha 1;08 i thought i saw a lowrider

[holyshticantfindanam]

Santa claus with a gun

[PyroBassFisherman]

funny that the airhogs osprey can go into plane mode and a $150+ hobby-grade one cant

[BeanMeister22]

@PyroBassFisherman Yes, I've seen the Air Hogs one, and I'm thinking of buying it. But I still like this one better because it looks a lot more real than the Air Hogs one does. I've seen a few other ones out there, but none of them look as real as this one does.

Also, hopefully in the next month or so, I'll make a video with about 10 different RC helicopters (including this one), showing how much of a load they can lift.

[PyroBassFisherman]

@BeanMeister22 good point, a nicely scaled parkflyer is always more fun.

[roju0229]

Thumbs up if you keep getting the poptart ad.

[MADdrummer971]

@roju0229 I get no ad's, get the firefox or google chrome ad on called ad block plus, it blocks all video and site ad's.

[roju0229]

@MADdrummer971 When i first tried to download it to my computer,it gave me a warning that it can harm my computer.

[MADdrummer971]

@roju0229 yeah its your shit anti virus its tripping, just disable it, ive had that add on for 3 years now NO PROBLEMS, so yeahhhh.

[MrCarcallas]

A V-22 Osprey is ALMOST similar to the CH-47 Chinook only because they both have 2 rotors and doesn't require tail rotors

[theqwertymaster7]

thats a shit plant it dosent go froward therefore not a shit plane but a shit helicopter

[BeanMeister22]

@theqwertymaster7 No it flies straight fine, I'm just not that good at flying it. I was more concerned with trying to make it hover, and trying to keep it away from the walls and from the big fans on the ceiling.

[Sonofsweetness]

I wish it dropped little care packages with m&m's in them!!!

[BeanMeister22]

@Sonofsweetness That would be cool, when I have time I'll make a video of it lifting a load.

[mistydog66]

that can hardy get off the ground!!!

[BeanMeister22]

@mistydog66 We were trying to be gentle with it. It has plenty of power, and we did not want it to take off too quickly and crash into the ceiling.

[Mexicanboy387]

@BeanMeister22 i also forgot to ask, can you make a video showing how to fly the osprey? please!

[MrWaddlezzzz]

Where did I get this??

[MrWaddlezzzz]

Did you make this or buy it and where did you buy it?

[BeanMeister22]

@MrWaddlezzzz I bought it online at Banana Hobby, I just put a link to their site in the description of this video.

[MrGkid5000]

@BeanMeister22 I know this is a stupid question but will the blades hurt you if the touch you? and what is a safe distance from your face when flying these?

[BeanMeister22]

@MrGkid5000 Well they are plastic, and although they probably wouldn't cut your finger off, they might be able to draw blood, and they certainly could take an eye out. At slow speed they just hurt a little when they hit you, but it's the higher speed that will do the most damage. Any RC helicopter has the potential to be a bit twitchy, so I'd never fly them within 4 or 5 feet of my face, and a 10 foot range is better, but I'm not sure what the safety info included with the instructions says.

[discombobulate123]

@BeanMeister22 i cant see one that size on banana hobby, what did u type in exactly?

[BeanMeister22]

@discombobulate123 Type in: art tech v22 osprey

[skyvoc2000]

@BeanMeister22 LOL i dont think that would really help, BananaHobby's search feature is pretty shit LOL. I typed in f-16, and it came up with nothing.

BTW, are they reliable? I have heard that they purposely miss out parts, so you have to buy them over, and that the boxes look like somebody played hockey with them. Also, when you try to contact them, you always get no reply. Is this true?

[Mexicanboy387]

@BeanMeister22 is it easy to handle? and is it easier or harder than a regular helicopter?

[BeanMeister22]

@Mexicanboy387 Yes, it is easier that a normal helicopter; very similar to flying a tandem helicopter like a Chinook or a Sea Knight. I have a video where I fly this outside, and it did pretty good even in the wind; and I am still not very good flying RC helicopters.

[onfinal69]

Looks lik a a solo-trek design. I hear R/C boats are selling big in Bangkock right now.

[YuhDoanSay]

Can it do the transition with any kind of stability? That would be ubercool...

[Franticuli]

very very very cool

[AZIlluminati08]

im sure wind has ALOT to do with stability. hints being in a gym.

[GUNDAMZGOK]

nice

[bmwm20b20]

This what i wanted to see! Check this rc V-22! watch?v=5ySVGx71SSI

[bmwm20b20]

Very Cool! Now i want to see it turn the engines forward and fly like real V-22!

[BeanMeister22]

@bmwm20b20 This was our first time flying it, and we were very new to RC helicopters in general as we came from an RC plane background. All in all, it could have been a lot worse when you consider that this warehouse has high volume air moving ceiling fans covering most of the ceiling, and if you watch my other videos filmed there, you can see how bad the air currents really are. I have to wait for summer weather for some better flight video of this and of the 15 other RC helicopters I have.

[DAMIENloh1970]

@BeanMeister22 Thought about adding helicommand to the plane for stability n auto pilot?

[LegoKidProdjects]

m going to win the death star.

[FluffyJetProductions]

That is one funky helicopter. I can just imagine flying something like that...

[ernestryles]

if only it flew like a real osprey with rotating props

[johnny777b]

This is the coolest helicopter I have ever seen. They have a real one of these at the air show, and it is the coolest too.

[austonie10]

hey is the bug at the end real lol

[Jeal918]

LOOKS cool



[Lenrom12]

looks like it can barley go in a straight line

[Lenrom12]

lol listen to what he starts sayin at 0:54

[Lenrom12]

well it looks nicer than some of those other planes

[Lenrom12]

too bad its harder to fl

[Lenrom12]

The engines sound ill

[Lenrom12]

it doesn't seem to be worth the money to me

[Lenrom12]

It doesnt seem very hard to fly

[Lenrom12]

must have cost a shit load

[Lenrom12]

must fly pretty low

[Lenrom12]

thumbs up pretty good vid

[Lenrom12]

man i really want to win the contest

[Lenrom12]

does youtube really give him money for these vids

[Lenrom12]

i think this is pretty cool

[jimbobpics]

It does not look very hard to fly.

[johnny777b]

The engines sound bad ass!

[dubspins]

@johnny777b engines are fuel powered. this is an electric plane so it uses motors

[johnny777b]

Is it very hard to fly?

[johnny777b]

Where can I get one of these?

[spartanbballer1]

@ SexyKitten1079 yes it does

[SexyKitten1079]

This looks real cool

[Jordmate]

@SexyKitten1079 Great fun - Jim knows how to fly em!

[spartanbballer1]

must have been expensive!

[spartanbballer1]

very cool!

[spartanbballer1]

looks very sturdy even though its the harder ones to fly

[theloathlydaddy]

Very cool, beats the little rubber band planes I used to play with hands down! lol

[BeanMeister22]

@theloathlydaddy Thanks for stopping by Steve, this thing is pretty cool, and I have been searching for one of these long before I ever had an RC helicopter. As a Marine, I have closely watched the development of the real V-22 Osprey, and it is an impressive piece of machinery when you see it in person.

[callingmar11]

@BeanMeister22 bean what branch of the military would you need to be in to fly one of these? army navy or airforce? i was thinking navy but iv been working hard and going on 7nth year of air force rotc so meh >.> but i realy want to become a pilot for one of these. joining the military after i finish college

[BeanMeister22]

@callingmar11 The US Marine Corps flies most of these. They are a replacement for the CH53 Super Stallion heavy lift helicopter. I have flow in both the Osprey, and the Super Stallion, and the Osprey is VERY cool.

[samr1995mk2]

@BeanMeister22 I always prefered the CH-53 (especially the MH-53 variant), it is sad to see them replaced with something so technical. Planes are becoming less characterised and I dread to think what the Joint Strike Fighter is going to be like..

[v22crewchief]

@BeanMeister22

They are not replacing the CH-53 where do you guys get this misinformation I would hope that someone that flew in an Osprey might have a clue about that.

I have flow on Osprey's about 1000 damn hours, it is replacing the CH-46E in the MC and the MH-53's In the Air Farce. (not misspelled)

The Osprey is a great plane and it is the next generation of aircraft. While it has some issues it really is bad ass to fly on.

[Jordmate]

You are certainly getting the good gear now Jim

[BeanMeister22]

@Jordmate I have always loved the real V-22 Osprey, so when I found this, I had to buy it.

[ikharus1]

@BeanMeister22 is it a good fly ? i want to buy this baby aswell maybe mod it a bit, is it worth the money ?(i prolly have to pay double for it cus i live in the middle of nowhere)

[spartanbballer1]

seems to be a lot more stable

[BeanMeister22]

@spartanbballer1 On Friday I will post another video of this thing, it does not look as stable in this new video as it does here.

[spartanbballer1]

nice flying going on there

[spartanbballer1]

too bad its harder to fly

[spartanbballer1]

this one looks really coo its different

[guyoffun]

i think i saw it on tv, it was able to turn from a heli into a plane

[worracsk8er]

dude that lookst so cool to fly

[spartanbballer1]

in the beginning the two blades give the effect of a taser

[spartanbballer1]

very cool

[spartanbballer1]

awesome the only plane out of all your other flight tests

[spartanbballer1]

for the first flight thats pretty awesome

[spartanbballer1]

i like how it has wheels so you can land while moving

[spartanbballer1]

amazing, toys these days are so amazing

[spartanbballer1]

looks like a lot of fun to fly!

[BeanMeister22]

@spartanbballer1 It looks fun, but this one was a little hard to fly. When I have time, I will post a video of it crashing during a landing, and it lost a tail fin which I still need to glue back on.

[spartanbballer1]

so realistic!

[JoeFielding72]

That is awesome. Man that is sweet. Jim, thank god you sad that because after 30 second's Mine died. Flying it out side. I couldn't wait for Austin to get home. So I de boxed it and flew it. It hit the tree and bounced to the ground. Would of been fine. If the land lord would not of been mowing the grass with his big cab mower. I have chopper mulch. I am going to pick up one just like it. So I can do Spider VS Chopper. God bless you and your family. I miss that chopper all ready!

[BeanMeister22]

@JoeFielding72 Joe, that would have been a great video!

I tried to get a friend of mine to fly his into a ceiling fan for a video, but he would not do it. Later today, I will post a contest video where I will give away a Mad Hawk 300 helicopter, and maybe even a Chinook too.

[Bl4zz3r]

wow you've really got into the rc's now eh?

[BeanMeister22]

@Bl4zz3r Yes, but I think it is more the potential for video making that has fueled this RC phase I am in. I just bought an RC battle tank, I hope to post a video of it in a day or so...they never had cool toys like this when I was a kid; good thing I am still a kid:)

[Bl4zz3r]

an  RC battle tank? dude

[WORRO01]

Awww man man man man MAN!!!

[BeanMeister22]

@WORRO01 Nice huh?

[WORRO01]

@BeanMeister22 Too COOL!

[mujawooja]

Nice test flight

[BeanMeister22]

@mujawooja Thanks, it was pretty hard to fly, and it broke on the second flight, I need to glue it back together before Ican fly it again.
