RC Duck -Ornithopter- Extreme flying

[dylbyl1234]

DOOODE i got a idea i wonder how much carnage there would be if u had 100 of these flying at once

[mrbadx19]

30 years ago i worked in a coal fired powerplant in IL, you could go 15 stories up there, coal dust everywhere. i was security so i knew the plant top to bottom. some amazin shit, boilers 5 stories tall, the turbine room was spectacular, wish i had a camera then. just double your plant and paint it black! LOL

[taofledermaus]

@mrbadx19 Those were some monster boilers. The plant I am at is the worlds largest creamery and they have 5 evaporators and dryers similar to this evaporator. A lot of stainless steel and 600hp motors. I still hate the place though , lol

Do you pay for your music tracks or is the credit in your description all you need to make YouTube and the Artist happy? I would like to do the same for a few of my videos... Thanks!

[taofledermaus]

@switchingtomac I get the music for free. Typically, the artists provide the music so they can get more recognition and exposure. I use music with Creative Commons licensing that allows commercial use. I get a lot of music from the website jamendo.

[switchingtomac]

@taofledermaus Thanks, just wanted to make sure!

[mrbadx19]

so cool, thanks jeff!

[taofledermaus]

@mrbadx19 Thank you!!!

[MrCrime97]

Wow awsome my friend used to own one but he broke it!! lol

[NaplesSwampRat]

dang nice flyin. my buddy bought one of those last year, i think it was the dragon fly version. but he couldnt fly it for shit. even after having it for a couple days

[taofledermaus]

@NaplesSwampRat I had to put a little tape on one wing to balance it. It would only fly to the right otherwise. It's hard to fly indoors with limited space, but flies well outdoors on calm days.

[rnickeymouse]

That's very cool, never seen anything like it.

[taofledermaus]

@rnickeymouse Thank you!!

[ervans]

Very Nice, I wish I could fly that around for my job.

[taofledermaus]

@ervans I just hope my boss doesn't see this video :P

[aderonn]

i have to say that i am very impressed with that thing. was that the helicopter thing you were telling me about that you got for Christmas?

[taofledermaus]

@aderonn No, I haven't posted anything about the Airhog video helicopter yet. I'm trying to get some interesting footage of that still.

[aderonn]

@taofledermaus oh ok. i thought this was what that was. this thing was still really cool tho.

[CasioEXF1Freak]

Very cool! you must work the graveyard shift to do that at work lol

[taofledermaus]

@CasioEXF1Freak Yes, we tend to get away with a lot of stuff. lol

[zaczoid]

it'd b pretti funny if an eagle just dropped out of he sky and attacked it

[ntheory]

Cool toy, but it looks more like a cicada.

[FusionMusicMan]

RC Vehicles are some of the coolest shit ever

[billhaley1868]

That's neat as hell, nice vid!

[taofledermaus]

@billhaley1868 And it flies for a long long time too. I think it will go for 10 minutes. 

[TheHiddenPart]

OMG that is soo sweet!! Really, it's more fun to fly that than shoot it.. BTW, how do you control it?

[taofledermaus]

@TheHiddenPart It has a radio frequency remote control. (not infrared) with one stick for throttle and the other for turning. It has a range of probably less than 100 feet.

[007tallguy]

hey, that's pretty cool! but initially i felt like running for the can of RAID, haha!

(you shot a camera out of your cannon...??? LMAO! it's too bad it didn't work out, that would have been a sight to see. a "bullets eye" view, haha)

[taofledermaus]

@007tallguy I put the camera in a foam capsule and wanted to shoot it straight up but it broke when I shot it. I wanted a need aerial view but that didn't happen!

[HeyRadialMoon]

Fly little ornithoptor! Fly like the wind!

[taofledermaus]

@TheFirearmsChannel I used to fly them too, years ago when I still had time to do stuff like that. I crashed many of them too. Part of the hobby!

[monkeyslaye]

Lol you got that from Bass Pro?

[taofledermaus]

@monkeyslaye My wife got it for me, not sure where though.

[ThomasAlexanderIent]

@taofledermaus your wife is awesome!

[revoltkid123]

thats funny, ive been looking at Ornithopters. i really want a cybrid but everywhere ive check has ran out.

[NickyDark17]

I got one of those, I enjoyed kamikaze-ing it into things.. Then the wing snapped.

Bird no fly no more. D:

[taofledermaus]

@NickyDark17 It's got carbon fiber rods in the wings, you must have really nailed something!

[NickyDark17]

@taofledermaus

It snapped at the base, the little plastic doo-hickie attached to the rod which attaches to the gear..

It broke.

[NickyDark17]

:D

[SlaveZero1234]

I remember when you attached a camera to your rc plane! that was really cool!

[taofledermaus]

@SlaveZero1234 I don't know if the bird could lift the camera. My little camera broke when I tried to shoot it out of my cannon.... darn it. lol That was a bad idea....

[TheHiddenPart]

@taofledermaus I don't think you have any footage of it.. do you?!?!? :D

[taofledermaus]

@TheHiddenPart No, I never posted anything since it was a failure. lol

[TheHiddenPart]

@taofledermaus Was the video file retrievable from the memory card, or was it corrupted?

[billhaley1868]

@taofledermaus lmao!

[SlaveZero1234]

Damn would be awesome if you could attatch a small camera to it and extend the capabilities of the remote distance. Everyone would think that it is just a bird^^

I am a big fan of this video... /watch?v=M9cSxEqKQ78

[taofledermaus]

@SlaveZero1234 I've never seen that video before, or anything like it actually. That is spectacular!

[SlaveZero1234]

@taofledermaus Yeah it sure is! I tried to find your video where you mounted a camera on your rc plane but I couldn't find it anymore...^^

[taofledermaus]

@SlaveZero1234 I may have deleted the video.

[TheAirsoftgroup]

you should attatch a small camera to it lol

[pyrosimple]

Where do you work?

[AthroughZ1thr0ugh9]

It looks like a bird or a really big bug when it's flying up high.

[MightyJustas]
