FPV is the shizzle

[slobodan]

FPV is the new thing in model flying. (first person view)
You wear the goggles and you 'see' what the camera on the model see's.
This guy just flew his model on a 110KM round trip.

I'm looking at that myself thou on a heli, those who have done its a lot harder than it looks.
They say they can fly a flight sim on a computer no problem but when wearing the goggles on a real model they feel motion sickness.

I never thought about the sickness thing.
Maybe I will use a small monitor when I get my setup.

Oh yeah... now that is proper cool! Want one!

I wonder what a crash (or at least the lead up to one you know is going to happen) 'feels' like though...

Maybe it's banned in the UK?

Yeah, but in 'Simpsons' speak...

There's 'banned' and there's 'banned'

Use a buddy box, it'll be fine.
