What is a YC-14 you ask? http://airpigz.squarespace.com/storage/hi-res/Boeing_YC-14.jpg

Another weird scratch built RC park Jet designed by Will / http://mikeysrc.com An update of my scratch built Boeing YC-14 ducted fan park jet. Made with foamboard hot glue and other cheap easy to find craft stuff. In this video I mount a small camera in my plane and transmit the signal live down to myself on the ground.

Uses twin 65mm Eflight ducted fans powered by twin brushless motors. Running 4 cell batteries.

  • Great video. I am working on combining ideas from this YC-14 and your other FPV plane to get what I need. Basically I hope to rotate the fuselage to get the DSLR to fit, extends the wings for more lift and use pusher props if you think they are more efficient that the EDF fans,

    My A10 uses 64mm EDFs, so was considering using them in case the project doesn't work out with the addes weight, but I guess I can go back to the original wing and use for a smaller camera as plan B.

    Great Work.

  • @Antifraud I don't think the YC-14 at it's current size is big enoigh yo reliably / safley carry a DSLR. Maybe a plane with double the wing area could do it.

  • what kind of reciever did u use and how many? just one more 2?

  • @davonizdashit Just one receiver on the plane it's a Spektrum AR6200

And plus I am planning to use it in a paintball/ airsofting game I need to have a gun and a bomb compartment... Do u think his is possible???? I would luv some help From a very experienced pilot like u Th
  • I HAVE BEEN USING A SIMPLE SOLUTION FOR ORIENTATION WHEN FLYING FPV

    BUY A LARGE BRIGHT ORANGE OR RED SHEET AND LIE IT OUT ON THE GROUND TO AS YOU FLY YOU CAN NOTE YOUR POINT, ANOTHER EVEN BETTER BUT PRICEY SOLUTION IS A SMOKE FLARE AS THEY REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE

  • nice job

  • Id be scared the plane would blow away lol XD.

  • not that fast for edf's, i would just keep [cheaper] props on it for that speed

  • i have a p51d mustang and i use it for fpv its sooooo much faster

  • OK so how do you actually hook both motors up to one throttle?
