| nofuelheli,
The link I posted is a 2.4ghz . Irregardless, I agree they are a lot of fun
The one I have is a 1.2ghz. I get lines too when flying with the HB, but I read somewhere that vibration can cause those lines. I still have some more experimenting to do. Since I can hover well...finally, I want to try it outside when it is a calm day
Rc Hummingbird,
The camera is very light, but the 9 volt battery adds a lot to the weight. But I am using the Etec 1200 LiPo battery so the total weight isn't any more than if I was using the birdseed pack. In fact, I suspect it is less.
I know that any camera would work better with a brushless motor since there would be much less interference. But I will try to get mine to work. I am currently using an Acro 280BB motor. I recently installed the Hornet CF FP blades and I love them. The heli is much more stable due to the higher head speed. |
I just used a bec connector and made a removable harness for ease of instalation. The current draw and weight only shaved a min or two off of my flight time but the pics I got were well worth it. I also used a balsa boom to mount the camera away from the electronics. And to get some of the helicopter in the picture.
