  • hi steve, ive just started out with the fpv and were just wondering what equipment you were using for this and where its availible to buy, or parts to build it from?

    Cheers, Oliver

  • "Microcameras" and "Rangevideo" for video link

    Custom OSD design via the packet modem

  • this is wonderful...i've only just begun working with rc helis, but this is beautiful...

  • Great work! Just wondering, why's the RSSI so weak even indoors? Are those 2.4 GHz modules outputting at 10 dBm?

  • Not sure - RSSI is the 868MHz control interface (TI CC1100 IC) I run it with FEC enabled and +10dBm. It is sensitive down to -100dBm with 1/4 wave whips from memory. The reported signal strength is not totally accurate above a certain power level. I found it a fairly difficult chip to configure and use..... may have some bug.

    Video TX is 2.4GHz 10dBm analogue.

  • I really wanna know how you did this! is it all light weight surface mount electronics?

  • Yes all light weight stuff - custom main controller 1.0x1.5" 4.5g, packet modem 1g, camera 1g, video tx 2.5g.

  • What an infuriating noise. You must have patient neighbours.

  • Yes they are patient, though birds are more noisy - check other videos and start of this one. You definately can't hear it at 10m and wouldn't see it either if you didn't know it was there. Mic is positioned close to 17000rpm props.

  • Great , where can i buy one ?!

    grtz from Hoilland

  • My dream is to bring something like it to the market......one day!

  • Fantastic must have gadget ,a lot more fun than google earth! This weighs less than Lyns 10 month old baby tortoise and goes a lot faster. When can I buy one?The boys are just watching the video now so better make that order for 3. Great job Steve.

  • An amazing machine Steve. Absolutely one of the most innovative things I've seen in a while. Keep up the good work.
