Road trip FPV

1,991 Views · Posted 12 years ago

So I went on a little drive to Sydney and Canberra and back, and took the quad with me.

Along the way I made many visits and had to share the fun. Highlights were flying off Echo Point at Katoomba in the Blue Mountains and a run along the beach at Diamond Head, Crowdy Bay National Park.

Bit by bit I am getting more adventurous and learning to trust my gear. The gimbal is still pretty twitchy but everything else is (thankfully!) super reliable. I will try some different servos soon and see if it helps - apparently the Naza has issues with some digital servos.

The music is

Winkipop by The Break (http://www.thebreak.net.au)
Coolangubra by Coolangubra (http://itunes.apple.com/au/artist/coolangubra/id201358876)

Both bands are awesome, check them out.

Gear list:

Gopro Hero 2
Fatshark Dominators
Immersion RC 600mw 5.8ghz TX
