V-22 scale RC model

[freddymathis820]

This is a "bustling" video. =p

[SpankTheYanksAgain]

Filmed with a shoe.

[SuperShloopy]

Filmed with a pickle

[Rotormast]

Rotormast web site sells them, they are great, flys perfect,

[discombobulate123]

where did you get this

[nickrohn93]

tried to compress the video size to under a kilobyte i see...

[Welltrusted]

Dose the recorder not have a better........:/ well everything

[THECHUBBYKING12]

is this recoreded with a potato?

[billy2cold]

Doesn't the nacelles tilt horizontal for forward flight?

[KWachter88]

cool



[cuprasport]

what was this recorded with a potato?

[mincraftowns]

Nice Where did you get that cammera i want 1 of this hq cams

[Humbertusmarius]

Can it rotate the engines and transition to horizontal flight? Just wondering.

[general43able]

dang how much you bought it???

[scoutbr00]

Great Plane, my favorite plane 5 stars!

did you build it?

[crabtrap]

nice balance on those props

[Rotormast]

Yes, Each blade is mached, I have a system, Is not to bad

[crazyrabbit2001]

@Rotormast I have a V-22 and can't get it off the ground. Got it from Banana Hobby and they are no help what so ever. One engine over powers the other. Trying to get info on how to get to electronics to adjust. The book shows a set screw but not telling you how to get to it without any damage to the plane. Can you help?

[2dazed]

whats up will the propeller rotors not tilting forward for forward flight or is that in the making to be shown soon. Anyways nice job though on the build looks great and the vertical movement looks awesome. wish I could dedicate time to build a VTOL RC harrier soon myself.

[Rotormast]

Just look at other Rotormast vids, To get the entire story

[RACOS666]

I know I should see other vids for better qual, but WTF u used to record this ? Refridgerator ?!

[v22crewchief]

Very cool good job!

I have plenty of flight time in a V22 with a150 hours in combat and I think you did a great job building this model airplane.

[Rotormast]

Thanks. If you can swing me a ride, I will come out and give you and your squad a nice demonstration. I work for Bell and am familure with the great job you and the V-22s are doing.

[silentopinion]

Can you shift the rotors to the front?

[Rotormast]

yes

[silentopinion]

Cool. To be honest, I didn't even think there was an RC V-22. It just means there are many options for RC fans.

[coffee1ify]

where do u live

[RCHELISPOT]

Great job!!!!

[bakiegw]

Nice 10$ camera ;))))

[fletch3si]

Do you have a dedicated website with builds? Where in the country/world are you located.

I am lucky enough to have flown in a real on in New River Nc, back in 1998 while in "testing"

VTOL for life.

[Rotormast]

I have a few pics on Runryder under user Rotormast. I live in Dallas TX, Work for Bell so have good working knowlage of the V-22. Never flown in one.

[Tupeutlatesla]

You should get a better cam next time lol

[Thizlamic]

HOLY CRIPES AWESOME V22!

Do you have plans you can share?

[MrBenjimundo]

that is a really crappy camera!!!

[Rotormast]

Yea. I use 3 gyros. works perfect

[WArockets]

me and my friend have an rc hunter killer from terminator that we made but it needs a gyro because right now it lifts off an inch and wants to go everywhere at once we used ducted fans instead of the jet turbines used on the movie

[BuzzBait007]

Well done! Nice model and well flown. Great job!

[Rotormast]

Thanks

[elreservista]

make the rotors or motors moving forward !!!!

[Rotormast]

NOt fixed pitch. Differential CP for roll

Diff throttle will work but not as well

[oohaahbird]

you really have the balance sorted how many gyros ? and on which channels. do you use differential throttle for roll? are they fixed pitch heads?

[cosminx2003]

make engines moving forward

[Rotormast]

they do. Look at other rotormast posts

[corbystarlet]

can you have the engines 45 degrees and hover it vertical?

[Rotormast]

sure

[0rmick]

Argh, get the full conversion working man! This is just too awesome.

[Rotormast]

Success. See other rotormast posts

[Rotormast]

Glad you like the real one. I work for Bell in Fortworth and have spent several years designing the real one. But have enjoyed making the model more. Still in work.

[Lastindependentthink]

G'day, nice job on the model. I always thought the tiltrotor concept was revolutionary but I was wondering. how come they didn't try to reposition the engines to between the wings above the fuselage and run the blades on a common shaft? a better defensive position? you could then redesign to tilt the whole wing so the prop wash does not bounce off the top taking away lift.

[Rotormast]

been done

look up vtol wheel of misfortune on the web. almost everything has been tried

[Mmelmann]

Rotormast... great job with that model! I love it. Nice flying as well man. I just switched from being a CH-46E pilot and I'm now flying the MV-22's and I love it. You should bring that model out to New River and we'll get you into a full motion sim so you can see how great it is to fly from the cockpit. Keep it up!

[DevonatorMetalMaster]

do you have any drawings or mechanical layouts? this is really cool.

[Rotormast]

No, If I could get 10 people to sign up for a kit I wold kit it. Still have some work to do

[Fightingfire138x]

What would be the price for a kit if you were to do so?

[Truckosaurus15]

bad qualy good vid

[TAPICTURES]

Super gut

[StephanRu88]

hehe the osprey

[RCsloper291]

that is really cool

[LordofChaos187]

flies better than the real one...

[oicurageologist]

Very nice.  Looks great!

[RCFLIGHTHELP]

Looks like you bought an expensive plane and didn't have enough money to buy a nice camera

[Dragon69Fly]

ghehe can't have it all eh? lol

[jaggsmann]

@RCFLIGHTHELP

LMAO! OMG!

[popcornreviews]

do the engines tilt forward to make it into a plane?

[AdviceBoy247]

yes

[bnewman227]

where can we see that then?- and can it then go back to hover?

[wildcatfan42]

Hey were did u get this. What website?

[Ragekii3]

can the door at the back of the plane opperate?

[Rotormast]

OF COURSE THEY DO, LOOK AT MY OTHER VIDS

[gmodesike]

so the housings do not rotate forward? that's a must for this :(

disappointed

still neat though

[partipilo]

That is pretty amazing. How in the world? That musta taken some pretty sophisticated electronics to keep that bird stable.

[Rotormast]

Thanks

[Rotormast]

Just got a new camera for and am about to start up testing again. Now that some new electronics have been completed. Will try and post something next month.

[hardcoregridiron]

I'm really looking forward to the next video. You should stick an on-board camera on it. Simply amazing.

[love2fish93]

im not here to talk trash, I really like the Idea and I would like to see a cleaner video if you have it.

[sepulcrack]

Superbe V 22 , le pilote est trés expérimenté.

Bravo !

[Rotormast]

Yes. Special forces has 4 or so.

[surgicalcric]

Special Forces doesnt have (posess) any of them. SF soldiers fly in them from time to time, but they are not on the MTO&E for SF.

[JGO126]

Or did you just wikipedia V-22.

[JGO126]

Does the airforce even have any V-22s?? I thought it was specific to the Marine Corps.

[ssgtakeo]

Yes the Air Force flies a V-22 variant, specifically the CV-22, equipped with terrain following radar, IR and EW warning and other features that enable night special ops.

[JGO126]

I don't believe anything you say. Sounds like you are talking out of your ass. You are a reservist, you probably haven't even ever seen one. Even if you are right about the equipment the fact is, you are still a douche.

[ssgtakeo]

"You are a reservist"

As if you know what the fuck that might entail? How about deployment to combat zones? How about experience handling vehicles that include some very exotic and classified cargos?

I'm not going to go any further than that Mr Slashdot physicist.

[nkx1]

Classified cargos? Ha ha ha ha, like what, your boss's dinner? Who cares about your "classified cargo." Like information on anything you might be carrying isn't readily available on the internet.

[ssgtakeo]

You're right, it wouldn't be available on the net and it's not right to talk about anyway so I'll leave it at that.

Had enough with youtube shit talkers. You and Mr Slashdot physicist can go sit+spin.

[nkx1]

Lol, oh no, I can't know about your douchebag special cargo. Like anyone gives a hoot about the crap you're toting around.

You wish you had a sub-200lb girl that would sit and spin for you, wouldn't you? Too bad you're likely too poor to get one!

[ssgtakeo]

Wow, I checked you out, you really are a king shitalker. Isn't it about time you grew out of that kind of talk? Age 30 is considered an adult.

END TRANSMISSION

[nkx1]

I could be 6 for all you know. In case you weren't aware, you can enter any age you want when registering.

***Now ending transmission with sstakeo the douchebag*** beep

[Rotormast]

Not quite

[ajm141993]

i love the way the real v22`s work, its just ace!! nice vid!

[Rotormast]

Thanks

[TIgor79]

Did you do transition to forward flight ?

[Rotormast]

Still working on it

[nerys71]

Its just a helicopter? No transition to forward flight with rotor rotation? or is this a prototype still. Looking forward to move video very cool!

[arrcomm1]

Very good model. Can't say as much for the video quality.

Very authentic-looking "bird".

[iamtherealzim]

too bad the video isn't clearer :(

[twoalisters]

far fucking out

[roflcopter105]

good to see a vtol that actualy works well :)

[3593893]

That is a great flyer. Fantastic job.

[LIQUIDAVIATION]

Excelent, excelent work dude, very cool indeed!

[carnooba]

Flies well, how come the big ones keep crashing??

[marker106]

not anymore

now they serve in iraq

[khk0510]

they still crash.the only reason they kept crashing is becasue when they reach high altitudes,the V-22 starts to have a pressure problem inside the cargo and making the air thinner making it lose control.

[ssgtakeo]

Dude, you seriously need to get a clue. None of what you wrote is true. The two biggest fatal crashes of the V-22 were attributed to: 1. Vortex Ring state and 2. Software problem.

[JGO126]

They crashed because of an air pressure problem that existes in all rotor aircraft but is easier to maneuver out of in a single rotor vehicle like a helicopter. The funny thing is that when the vortex above a propeller is present all the operator has to do is nudge the plane forward but it was counter intuitive. now the iarcraft has software that recognizes the problem and corrects it in real time so the pilot can't mess up and crash.

[ssgtakeo]

The published max sink rates and added an audio warning to keep the aircraft out of VRS.

[JGO126]

I know about VRS and how it works. I have a degree in physics. The audio warning was a quick fix but I read an article a couple of years ago in popular science about autonomous crash avoidance in cars that used the osprey problem as an example. It said that there was a system that took over the controls and nudged the rotors forward out of VRS without input from the pilot. I'm not in the Marines so I don't know for sure if it is in use, but it does exsist. Are you a fucking osprey expert?

[blackhatch46]

i am, i work on them, and he is right.

[ssgtakeo]

Your degree hasn't done you a shit worth of good it seems. Especially in light of the fact that you can't seem to apply the information in terms of what is actually used on military aircraft. How would you I have a knowledge of what is actually used on it? Inside sources help.

I'll leave it at that mr slashdot physicist.

[LOOK4B]

What the heck are you talking about? Nothing you just said makes any sense.

[HisMajestyOKeefe]

looks like about a 15% transition, it must scream along at 100MPH if fully transitioned, how could you keep up with it?

[Sempermv22]

Has anyone been able to sucesfuly transition ?

[nakazatoGTR]

to rotormast, can i have your basic schematics for the rotor system used in your model?

i cant seem to stabilize mine.

[blue0footed0booby]

amazing but i'd love to know where you got it

i have rc jet engine mig 17 OVT and i'd love to add a v-22 to my collection

[nakazatoGTR]

was this a later version of your profile V-22?

[mediumpimpn]

How many gyro's?

[gpasi420]

super rad!!!

[helimadken]

Fantastic, incredibly stable, when are you going for a transition?

[b101aa2]

dig it. but how did you finally get it to stabilize?

[Cricket202]

very nice looking model
