Hello! brilliant video! can you say what you used for the system to your FPV flights? such as camera, transmitter, receiver for the plan and vision and more. / / Joakim

@patrickcorliss

i just got your 3 messages.

thanks for the update.it's always better to get the info from someone on the ground in the particular location.

evedently i was misinformed by the people i met and trained with when i was there during my 2009 r&r in Sydney.

the u.s. police are also guilty of mis-informing our public so i guess i shouldn't be surprised but i figured the hunting guides who are at the mercy of the law would have had better info.

thanks again.

@patrickcorliss If you are interested, send me a PM - I could probably direct you to a few resources for this hobby. There is a lot of information around and it can be hard to sort through, because it's not really to the "plug and play" level yet, but its not too difficult or expensive to get one of these up and flying. In general, the term UAV seems to be used when the planes are using waypoints, while FPV is a more common term if its being manually controlled it seems

[ferrett78]

@patrickcorliss I agree, though Im somewhat of an optimist and try to give people a chance... The comment format often leads to misunderstandings, so I usually persist with trying to be reasonable for awhile...

As for this video, those planes are dirt cheap (like $70ish) and the camera equipment relatively inexpensive too. The views arent true 3D yet, though I have seen the first twin-camera setups for FPV that should allow proper 3D views soon (if not already)

@tapper45

Sorry, Tapper. I meant semi-automatic weapons like the AR-15 rifle.

"AR-15 rifles, like all semi-automatic rifles, are banned from legal ownership in all states and territories in Australia. The ban on semi-automatic rifles was introduced in 1996 in response to the Port Arthur massacre, in which 35 people were killed. One of the weapons used in the attack was an AR-15."

That's from Wikipedia

Hey, Tapper. I'm an Australian.

Guns in general may be illegal in some countries but they are certainly not in Australia. Shotguns, rifles, handguns are all perfectly permissible though you do need a permit or licence which is usually issued by the State you live in.

What you are probably thinking about is fully automatic weapons which were generally banned after a massacre in Port Arthur, Tasmania.

That did cause the Australian Olympic team some difficulty.
