    FPV Spanky Cottage Playground Full

    Hi All, Here's the harsh cuts of some of the flights I did around the beautiful Cornish garden recently. Warning there is some close proximity flying to myself and spotter (not trying to feed the trolls here) that I suggest no one else do as it was very risky but we both accepted full...

    FPV Close Proximity Cottage Playground

    Thank you Benjamin ;) Here is a version without the annoying music but instead you get my silly noises of having fun recorded from the GoPro which was next to me and spotter: http://vimeo.com/103146120

    FPV Close Proximity Cottage Playground

    Hi All, Here is the warm up video for some of the most fun I have had FPV, its very rare I get to spend too long at any one location so its hard to learn the area to get some nice routes. The flight is the first one in that location on the day and I'm just getting warmed up after a long drive...

    FPV Spanky, The Joy of Speed

    Hi All, Here is a quick flight around the parade ground of Plympton Castle near Plymouth, Devon. I could not fly near the castle as there were too many people around. Its hard to find things to do in an open space but finding the path kept me well entertained and I enjoyed it so much I thought I...

    FPV Spanky Fishlake Stream

    Ah there might be the problem, you will get instant improvments if you used Skew Planar antenna, the video will rarely even flicker with normal vLOS flights and give much better results behind trees etc. Grab yourself a well made pair for your vTx and vRx. The difference will be Amazing!

    FPV Spanky Fishlake Stream

    Sorry to hear that, I find when the video starts to chop if you just keep going and stay confident the picture soon comes back pure again but of course if it gets too bad then I halt and turn round or retreat back to good signal. What setup do you use? and what antenna have you got as that is key.

    FPV Spanky Fishlake Stream

    Hi All, This is what close proximity flying with mini quads is all about for me. You can have so much fun in such a small area and explorer places you might not even walk. This stream was once used to power large waterwheels for Tavistock Bedford Foundry back in 1840's. Best viewed full screen...

    Hi All, Here is the first flight I have done using the Spanky around another quad, it was a beautiful day for flying apart from the wind but that didn't stop the fun. Its quite clear to see what footage was from our GoPro's compared to the Mobius shots but in its defence I had not balanced the...

    FPV Spanky Maiden

    Hi All, These are the maiden flights of my new FPV frame, SpankyJAB. I had already made 3 different designs of my own 240mm quadcopter but I just could not get the weight down enough to the point of excellent performance. The video begins with footage from my first ever FPV flight of the...

    FPV Quadcopter abusing the Nano-Tech 45C Lipo's

    Hi All, What an amazing site, there are old tin mining pits all over the place and plenty of ruins to fly around via FPV. This site dates back to 1180 as farm land and then the tin mining started around 1790 to fuel the industrial revolution. This day's flight started with a prop...

    FPV Quadcopter Threading the Needle!

    Thanks bud ;) I would stay I don't need anymore practise out in the open (plus its a bit boring and not much skill required at all), the practise is needed in tight spots like this video proves ;)

    FPV Quadcopter Threading the Needle!

    Hi All, This is my first Post on this forum and I am happy to be here. This video was done a few weeks ago, my plan was to stay on the tracks but the trees looked too inviting not to have a fly around them. Best viewed full screen @720p
