Man I was watching your videos idk like 15 years ago ! When you was working at redcat if my memory is good. TH-cam recommended me your vid today, happy to see your still in the hobby !
This heli is good for beginner 3d pilot just to get the feel of inverted flying. Of course, this will not replace 3d sim to do the transition your self.
Dear Alishanmao, How did you do to have this FlyWing FW450 V3 ? You engage $499 USD on the kickstarter website and you receive the Helicoper RTF. I seem to dangerous ways I see they have more than 81 buyers now for this topic. CAn I buy one surly ? With a french delivery ? Many thanks for your reply. Now I fly with V2 version with a belt. And many thanks to take time for your rc reviews (pouce levé)
Hi Buddy, I am helping Flywing to test this helicopter. I received the worlds first sample. i was the only one to get a V3 in this whole world. They sent me for my testing, feedback and help to improve helicopter and software. i have been testing this helicopter since December 2022 but did not post any videos as it was a brand new product that required much testing. with lots of testing and feedback, i helped flywing develop this product into a mature product that you see now. You can order from kickstarter. or if you are worried, you can wait and order from dealers once its available.
you can do off line calibration too. there is a method of off line calibration for h1 lite. where helicopter does not need to be physically connected with usb during the calibration. only connect to start calibration. flywing has posted a video of that method.
Commented on a previous recent v.3 video and was very impressed. I’m the old Viet Nam Huey jockey that wrapped my FW 450 v.2 mechanics in a scale Huey body dressed up like the “C” model gunship I flew with the 191st Assault Helicopter Company out of Dong Tam, South Viet Nam in 1969-70. (Gun platoon named “Bounty Hunters.) So, being an old man now, flying R/C heli’s since my first Kalt Baron “60” from Circus Hobbies in the early 1980’s (Century VII radio), you can imagine how relaxing and enjoyable it is to still be able to fly-completely stress free-with the new technology offered by Flywing. And for those naysayers you might encounter on other TH-cam or heli forums, this technology allows young newcomers and decrepit, old guys like me, to safely and comfortably remain active in this great, rotary-winged facet of our hobby. Again, thanks for yet another comprehensive video that keeps the juices flowing even in the constricting veins of this 76-year-old “sling wing” pilot. My name is already placed on order for this upcoming v.3 in a couple suppliers, whichever releases first.
"this technology allows young newcomers" You mean they shouldn't have to attempt to fly for a few seconds and then rebuild their aircraft after each short flight? But they're miss all the fun! Seriously, I tried to learn to fly an RC heli in the early '80s (I'm about 16 years your junior) and it was expensive and very time consuming. Flight simulators made learning a lot easier. These new helicopters look flyable even without simulator training. I'm looking to purchase one of these modern flybarless helicopters but I'd like the heli to be compatible with ArduPilot so I could use it to fly autonomous "missions." Thanks for sharing your Viet Nam story. I'd love to see video of your scale Huey. I don't suppose you'd consider posting videos on TH-cam? No fancy editing needed. Just upload the video. My various robot video are nothing fancy but it's fun to have a place to share these video. Good luck and happy flying.
@@ddegn Hi Duane, Thanks for the response. Funny about the “newcomers”. Sorry, don’t know anything about ArduPilot, but I’ll bet our Alishamao can respond. None of us old timers where I fly have kept our ancient video cameras and all of us agree these “phone” videos you see are weak. So, no videos for me but I do have photos of both my FW450 v.2 “Huey” and my FW450 v.1 “Hughes 500. Is there a way to send them to you?
Thank you for your insight and comment. wow, a real heli pilot. man, huey in real life sounds super awesome. i have seen them in flight personally. wish one day i could build myself a micro light electric helicopter so i can fly myself. using H1, it will be super easy to fly. totally agree with you, new tech has open this amazing hobby to everyone to enjoy.
Ardu pilot is a flight controller with software that supports many types of aircraft, and even vehicle and boats. you can configure planes, helis, drones, vtols, boats, cars with ardupilot and even fly or drive autonmous missions. but the setup, and tweaking of parameters to get good results is nothing but pain in the b*** :D hahaha h1 is super easy and i hope soon they will introduce some kind of way to integrate it to waypoints software.
Wow Is all I can say. Need a question answered please Ali. I'm debating this one or the Huey from Fly Wing. Tough choice because I like the real look of the Huey. Here's the thing I want to ask: Can the Huey do inverted also ??? Same company, I presume same ESC,motor, GPS, etc. And yes I realise real Huey's don't do !!!!😊
Ali, appreciate the V4 info, just like DJI products or hell yeah iPhones, always new versions, impossible to keep up right ??? Any hints on V4 what might change ??? Hoping at least rocket pods and a Stallone door gunner !!!
hello, do you know how much flight time it has? in flight from Novato and which Battery did you use? Greetings from Mexico City and Thank you very much for always having the first Hoobie News. I congratulate you once again.
Hi. Great video I’ve seen a few and my brother who is in to planes. I can’t stand for long and can’t sit at all because of my spine. What’s the cost of that helicopter I’m in the uk.
What reciever would I need if I was to get the PNP version of this heli and fly it with my Tx16s? can i just put a spektrum satellite or something on it?
WoW very cool !! Unfortunately flipping a switch just doesn't do it for me !! Soon we wont need to even fly, just go to a field sit down grab a cold soda and watch your RC fly itself lol. I love the radio its clean and looks contemporary. Well done .....
in future, we will just drag and drop 3d routines in a flight bin off an app. after that we will hit go button, sit down grab our coffee and watch our heli fly better than any 3d champion :D
Great helicopter Ali for beginners. The technology is always getting better. your reviews are always educational and fun to look at. We wish you lots of fun with your hobbies Ali. 😃🤚 👍👍👍
I learnt 3D flying with a 50 size raptor. Amazing piece of kit. My concern with this is it’s too easy and thus people will become complacent on how dangerous that spinning disc really is.
Good point. This is a 450 and I'm sure it can do some damage but I can't imagine someone flying a 700 or 800 with gps because they don't have any skills. I know my 700 has a main rotor diameter of 5' with carbon fiber blades spinning over 1800 rpm. One guy about 90 miles away from where I live hit his own neck with a 700. He ended up on an autopsy table.
As always, a great video Ali,Would have been nice to show some under the hood footage,I think that is what we all have been waiting for,what are the NEW changes ? the canopy is obvious ,what else ? as for flying my V2.5 is the same,so show us "under the hood" why it is better than the previous versions.
I am always amazed by tech like this. Sadly, there are a lot of naysayers what come up with all kinds of nonsensical fearmongering & conspiracy theories to bully anyone that operates aircraft like this out of the hobby. I despise this level of stigma. It's one of the reasons why remotely piloted helicopters have not had any serious innovation since 2014, & even then, there were a lot of naysayers when helicopters first ditched the flybar around 2008~2010; & even back when helicopters first went electric (phasing out internal combustion engines), that had its naysayers too. As for me, this is aimed at beginners & more power to them, as this will attract new pilots to the hobby & open up the door to a new generation of pilots. My only gripe with this helicopter is that it did not exist back in 2007, when I was first getting into flying remotely piloted helicopters. I could have done welll with something like this, back then. It would have helped bridge the gap between those toy "elevator" helicopters & flying The Real McCoy.
see if you are a pro pilot, good at 3d, you do not need this. you can get GooSky RS4: bit.ly/3YGUJjq this is for beginners who want to learn to fly RC Helicopters and be able to do some mild aerobatics.
Alex,why do you suppose there is NO under the hood footage "videos", only flying videos ? I think we all would like to know what all of the new upgrades are and why they are better,or are there any new upgrades ? looks like there hiding something ??
The point of doing a piro flip is a demonstration of dedication of determination and practice. By just holding down one stick and flipping a switch, it literally is meaningless as regular spectators have no idea what the point is and usually to them it just looks out of control. I appreciate the tech, but people are missing the point of 3D. Its not just about the moves, but about challenging yourself and the sense of accomplishment, its intangible and cant be bought.
I know, i have been practicing piro flips and just now i am able to do them in sim and outdoors on my helis like GooSky S2 and RS4. still I crash a lot LOL. but am able to finally pull piro flips and with practice they will become more stable and controlled.
to be honest i have not tried lifting a payload or towing a plane with this helicopter. it does have good power, but try everything at your own risk :) GPS system for sure can help in towing process
Is it true that in GPS mode it can just fly away? That is what I have heard besides, like a comment below GPS may make one complacent. I prefer the challenge of manual like my Goosky S2. Even in standard flying mode its not easy to fly, you have to pay attention. I have come seriously close to my head (had to duck).
hey ali, I learned on a Thunder Tiger Raptor 90SE (I know, one heck of a trainer haha). I understand in 3D mode there is no GPS or stability, however, does 3D have anything like a heading hold lock like an old Futaba GY401 Gyro? Or is the tail going to go whacky like some Kavan from the mid 1970s? lol
I don't understand this pledge business. For instance, pledge $499 to get 38% off? 38% off of what price? So you spend $499 on top of what ever that price is? And if it doesn't go then lose $499? Can you explain all this to me? I don't understand. Thank you.
To be honest I also do not understand this kickstarter thing. if i have to buy a product from kick starter, I always wait for campaign to finish and then order the product after i have seen people reviews. normally batch 2 is best because by then product is more mature.
Wow, that is really cool. Good point. Good fand you always like good. I want to tell you My bacon computer is messed up and I normally do not use my phone. I do watch your videos and I would like to give you thumbs up just to let you know. Okay I miss you my good friend..😊
Does fw450 v3 only invert sideways when using GPS? The fw200 you can use the right stick to flip front or backwards into invert flight via Acro Flight mode...
Seems like cheating to use gps and stabilization (other than mechanical flybar or a FBL unit). A quadcopter with gps or a fpv quad in acro could catch better video so who is this really for? I would love to see that 450 heli hover in 20 mph+ winds!
this can hover in more winds than drones can. helicopters are more efficient, and better all the way. besides, this is helicopter hobby, not fpv or aerial filming, so mixing it or comparing it with fpv and aerial filming drones, is just like you want to compare a motorcycle with a car. they are designed for different purposes.
One thing to note, RC Helicotpers flying / hobby, is a different category than FPV hobby. helicopter pilots are different than FPV Pilots. We as helicopter pilots love to fly these line of sight, 3d aerobatics or scale. nothing even come close to joy of flying a helicopter line of sight scale and or 3D. FPV Pilots have choices to put their own gear on anything they want to FPV. so you can always install your own gear on it. or else you have choice to go with fpv drones which are plenty out there.
So I saw you had a message on your video that said you had just had taken the helicopter out of the box and flew it in this video and you did not have to program it, All the programming was done at flywing so is that correct? Thank you Ali always love your videos, I have not been watching alot after my wife of 44yrs passed away 😢, I try to keep up-to-date with your videos.
you are welcome. yes normally for flywing helis. you had to do compass calibration. but now with V3 gps you do not have to. however i would still suggest to double check everything before flying and then goto field. my sincere condolences for your loss. She is in a better place. one day we all have to go. stay strong my friend. life goes on and we need to make sure we live our life to fullest.
@@alishanmao i love the possibillity to flip it to 3D, and do your own thing. But else, it flyes like a full controlled Drone. Another thing: I want to fly it with MY Controller, not having an extra Controller for every FlyToy.
these days I was spending time with my Bangladeshi brother in Dongguan. Maybe this year I will plan to come to Bangladesh with him and also visit Pakistan :)
Salve ho questo modello di elicottero, ho calibrato la bussola del GPS ma l'elicottero continua a non stare fermo in quanto va in dietro e avanti da solo. A volte si abbassa da solo. Purtroppo non so come risolvere il problema.
Hello 👋🏾 from Montréal Québec it in Canada 🇨🇦 amazing 🤩 improvement compaire to my Heli-max 400 pro longtime I seen video from you keep posting am watching all your videos
I was watching another video, of someone flying the V2 version. He too was doing Piro Flips with the V2. He didn't know what he was doing, as he didn't know what he was doing, was and ACTUAL trick, but the V2 IS capable of doing them. He obviously didn't know what a side Tic Tok was, so he didn't attempt it. He did show doing a sideways invert, but he just left it there for about 7-8 seconds, and flipped it back. I'm curious to see if the firmware in the V2 will make it do smooth Side Tic Toks like you're doing. You REALLY showed some of what the newest V3 can do. I can't wait to see more!
Great! But the price is also great! No beginner will invest on it for their first buy (which is bad to thing because crashing a lot of helicopters won't learn anything) even if it is a very secure chopper. Price is high but it worth it. Let's see the real price when it will be fully available. I've got the V1 version, and just sold it to a friend of mine. Just for one thing! : I needed a Microsoft computer to calibrate it. I bought a second hand PC laptop just to calibrate my chopper just for a small application of 9Mb!!!, it is ridiculous as all my computer system is based on Apple apparels. I resold the chopper and the laptop on the same time, and mostly by the fact that I never use ... my laptop. I don't have this kind of problem with the excellent FW200, compatible with IOS. Flywing, please, do something for calibration. Develop Apple software for iMac or IOS or iPad, but do something in this way. I am nearly ready to buy this new V3 but only with Apple compatibility!!!
Thanks buddy. i have told flywing during my recent visit to their factory that they need to release Android and iOS app now for H1. they are working on it.
you will need to use your own receiver. Like i do, previously i used R2008SB SFHSS and i am still using same in Huey UH1, Bell 206. you can program it easily with 16iz
Wow that's very beautiful helicopter, I've never seen that helicopter capable of doing almost of 3d flight mode,I'd like to have one of coolest easy to fly to helicopter.ive own Align T ReX 450 pro v2.thanks Ali for making these Video.

Rescue modes of Vbar, Spirit and Brain and better at flipping. The fw450 looks super sketch and loses a lot of altitude before flipping over.
it will improve over time.

My concern with this is it’s too easy and thus people will become complacent on how dangerous that spinning disc really is.
agree with that but we will have to go with tech and educate people that these are still dangerous.

see if you are a pro pilot, good at 3d, you do not need this. you can get GooSky RS4: bit.ly/3YGUJjq
this is for beginners who want to learn to fly RC Helicopters and be able to do some mild aerobatics.
I gota get one or two becuz i know ima wreck the 1st one lmao
get soon
Nice V3!! I tested V1.9 on mine V2.5 and I'm able to do all the tricks you have done here...hahaha...
Alex,why do you suppose there is NO under the hood footage "videos", only flying videos ? I think we all would like to know what all of the new upgrades are and why they are better,or are there any new upgrades ? looks like there hiding something ??
Where can I download the software version 1.9 please
just be patient Rick. there is nothing people are hiding here. so just be patient. everything will come in time.
should be on flywing site
The unlock of options, opens up the full potential of H1
I'm so amazed how you can fly this manually!! Wish I could do that!!
Practice buddy. I believe if you practice daily, you can do it better than me
The point of doing a piro flip is a demonstration of dedication of determination and practice. By just holding down one stick and flipping a switch, it literally is meaningless as regular spectators have no idea what the point is and usually to them it just looks out of control. I appreciate the tech, but people are missing the point of 3D. Its not just about the moves, but about challenging yourself and the sense of accomplishment, its intangible and cant be bought.
I know, i have been practicing piro flips and just now i am able to do them in sim and outdoors on my helis like GooSky S2 and RS4. still I crash a lot LOL. but am able to finally pull piro flips and with practice they will become more stable and controlled.
Looks awsome. Would you recommend this, for towing a stranded rc seaplane? I am looking for something to save my A5 if it gets stranded in the lake.
to be honest i have not tried lifting a payload or towing a plane with this helicopter. it does have good power, but try everything at your own risk :) GPS system for sure can help in towing process
@@alishanmao wouldn't need to be lifted, maybe towed... Some day I will find a voulinteer. 😉
Is it true that in GPS mode it can just fly away? That is what I have heard besides, like a comment below GPS may make one complacent. I prefer the challenge of manual like my Goosky S2. Even in standard flying mode its not easy to fly, you have to pay attention. I have come seriously close to my head (had to duck).
if ever have any such incident where you feel you have no control, flip flight mode to 3d and back to gps immediately and you will get control back
hey ali, I learned on a Thunder Tiger Raptor 90SE (I know, one heck of a trainer haha). I understand in 3D mode there is no GPS or stability, however, does 3D have anything like a heading hold lock like an old Futaba GY401 Gyro? Or is the tail going to go whacky like some Kavan from the mid 1970s? lol
Of course tail locks, there is a gyro for that :) or else how would you even fly if you had to manually lock the tail at one place hahaha
@@alishanmao ok thank god haha
I don't understand this pledge business. For instance, pledge $499 to get 38% off? 38% off of what price? So you spend $499 on top of what ever that price is? And if it doesn't go then lose $499? Can you explain all this to me? I don't understand. Thank you.
To be honest I also do not understand this kickstarter thing. if i have to buy a product from kick starter, I always wait for campaign to finish and then order the product after i have seen people reviews. normally batch 2 is best because by then product is more mature.
Wow, that is really cool. Good point. Good fand you always like good. I want to tell you My bacon computer is messed up and I normally do not use my phone. I do watch your videos and I would like to give you thumbs up just to let you know. Okay I miss you my good friend..😊
Thanks brother
The fit and finish and build quality of these they should be half of the price. I am not really into flying a helicopter with switches.
hope they can reduce prices
Does fw450 v3 only invert sideways when using GPS? The fw200 you can use the right stick to flip front or backwards into invert flight via Acro Flight mode...
yes this one only side ways
Seems like cheating to use gps and stabilization (other than mechanical flybar or a FBL unit). A quadcopter with gps or a fpv quad in acro could catch better video so who is this really for? I would love to see that 450 heli hover in 20 mph+ winds!
this can hover in more winds than drones can. helicopters are more efficient, and better all the way. besides, this is helicopter hobby, not fpv or aerial filming, so mixing it or comparing it with fpv and aerial filming drones, is just like you want to compare a motorcycle with a car. they are designed for different purposes.
السلام عليكم ورحمه الله وبركاته My brother is the best in every respect goosky4s or FW450 ؟؟
wassalam. if you are total beginner go for FW450
@@alishanmao thanks brother /شكرا لك. يا اخي تشرفت بك
I'd very much would love to see this sold with HD FPV or Analog with or without head tracker. But MFG'S never follow through.
One thing to note, RC Helicotpers flying / hobby, is a different category than FPV hobby. helicopter pilots are different than FPV Pilots. We as helicopter pilots love to fly these line of sight, 3d aerobatics or scale. nothing even come close to joy of flying a helicopter line of sight scale and or 3D.
FPV Pilots have choices to put their own gear on anything they want to FPV. so you can always install your own gear on it. or else you have choice to go with fpv drones which are plenty out there.
Can you use the 4S 5000 batteries that came with the 450L V2.5? By the way great video.
I am using 5000MAh with the airwolf shell on it. without airwolf shell you will have to find a way to fit that big battery under the frame
Very good review Ali.
Thanks bud
If its programmable with my Futaba 16IZ, will pull the trigger on this Heli
of course you can. I am saving to get that radio too :) so far very happy to use my 14SG. but 16IZ seems to be better as its a newer radio.
So I saw you had a message on your video that said you had just had taken the helicopter out of the box and flew it in this video and you did not have to program it, All the programming was done at flywing so is that correct? Thank you Ali always love your videos, I have not been watching alot after my wife of 44yrs passed away 😢, I try to keep up-to-date with your videos.
you are welcome. yes normally for flywing helis. you had to do compass calibration. but now with V3 gps you do not have to. however i would still suggest to double check everything before flying and then goto field. my sincere condolences for your loss. She is in a better place. one day we all have to go. stay strong my friend. life goes on and we need to make sure we live our life to fullest.
Thank you for answering my question, I will look forward to more of your valuable information on this helicopter. Blessings to you and your family.
Its not flying, its flipping switches.
For shure it may be fun in your hollidays, not ruin your REAL rc helicopter.
for beginners its fun
@@alishanmao i love the possibillity to flip it to 3D, and do your own thing.
But else, it flyes like a full controlled Drone.
Another thing:
I want to fly it with MY Controller, not having an extra Controller for every FlyToy.

it will soon have the payment option. wait for it.
Ma-sa-allah,, I live in Bangladesh,,i like this,,, but i buy the helicopter,,,my dream this,,, how i buy the helicopter,,, plz u said,,,,
these days I was spending time with my Bangladeshi brother in Dongguan. Maybe this year I will plan to come to Bangladesh with him and also visit Pakistan :)
shipping posibol any how,,,,i like this rc helicopter,,, Bangladesh
its just a drone not a rc helicopter, no skill its all computer controlled your not flying it
Though it's getting automated but still you need some skills to control it. Learning to fly is safer and easier this way
seems like cheating, flipping a switch is hardly flying. :(
But something for beginners
Where'd you bought it? Taobao have just V2,5..

Sir, my helicopter is not working so please tell me some tips
email us please
how are the servos i hear they are kinda finicy like $14 so says.
so far i have had a couple of crashes on these and servos are still holding very well. no issues
I would want it for FpV camera platform. Dandahermit.
You can
One question so in 3D is up stick inverted down and dw stick up?
if you set beginner mode, its up is up, down is down in inverted. but if you set professional it will reverse
Salve ho questo modello di elicottero, ho calibrato la bussola del GPS ma l'elicottero continua a non stare fermo in quanto va in dietro e avanti da solo. A volte si abbassa da solo. Purtroppo non so come risolvere il problema.
you mean its having toilet bowl movement?
@@alishanmao penso di sì, dopo un paio di secondi inizia a spostarsi da tutte le parti. Può aiutarmi per risolvere questo problema?
Did you used some PID control brother? Did you built it?
yes i tweaked the settings using 1.9v software. you can do that too.
Hello 👋🏾 from Montréal Québec it in Canada 🇨🇦 amazing 🤩 improvement compaire to my Heli-max 400 pro longtime I seen video from you keep posting am watching all your videos
Great to hear!
Wow 👏 👏 👏 👍 a flying lawnmower!!!! ☠ I love flying machines but not the helicopters 🙂
Thanks for watching
I was watching another video, of someone flying the V2 version. He too was doing Piro Flips with the V2. He didn't know what he was doing, as he didn't know what he was doing, was and ACTUAL trick, but the V2 IS capable of doing them. He obviously didn't know what a side Tic Tok was, so he didn't attempt it. He did show doing a sideways invert, but he just left it there for about 7-8 seconds, and flipped it back. I'm curious to see if the firmware in the V2 will make it do smooth Side Tic Toks like you're doing. You REALLY showed some of what the newest V3 can do. I can't wait to see more!
i believe with right settings v2 can do that. but v3 has better power combo and settings.
Great! But the price is also great! No beginner will invest on it for their first buy (which is bad to thing because crashing a lot of helicopters won't learn anything) even if it is a very secure chopper.
Price is high but it worth it. Let's see the real price when it will be fully available.
I've got the V1 version, and just sold it to a friend of mine. Just for one thing! : I needed a Microsoft computer to calibrate it. I bought a second hand PC laptop just to calibrate my chopper just for a small application of 9Mb!!!, it is ridiculous as all my computer system is based on Apple apparels. I resold the chopper and the laptop on the same time, and mostly by the fact that I never use ... my laptop.
I don't have this kind of problem with the excellent FW200, compatible with IOS.
Flywing, please, do something for calibration. Develop Apple software for iMac or IOS or iPad, but do something in this way. I am nearly ready to buy this new V3 but only with Apple compatibility!!!
Thanks buddy. i have told flywing during my recent visit to their factory that they need to release Android and iOS app now for H1. they are working on it.
If you pledge the kit without transmitter, Can I use my Futaba 16IZ in GPS mode? Does it come with electronics on board? radio receiver? GPS receiver?
you will need to use your own receiver. Like i do, previously i used R2008SB SFHSS and i am still using same in Huey UH1, Bell 206. you can program it easily with 16iz
as always ....awesome vids........gonna get it???........fingers are twitching right now....its been a while since I flown my old F450
thank you :) link is waiting in description
Wow that's very beautiful helicopter, I've never seen that helicopter capable of doing almost of 3d flight mode,I'd like to have one of coolest easy to fly to helicopter.ive own Align T ReX 450 pro v2.thanks Ali for making these Video. You're a good person I hope you're in good health. Best of luck to your channel.
Thank you buddy. yes you can get this helicopter soon. links in video description
Automatic out Brain, ,no human desenvolv
There is a manual 3d mode too for humans
Holy smokes, I've been out of the RC game for several years now but wow have the electronics improved!
Welcome back
Is there a link or store to buy this heli?
for now only can order on kickstarter
Do you think this will be available as a BNF? I hate to pay for another transmitter when I have a new TX16S MK2!
I hope so.
Ali, What is this flight mode you tested under the parameters? Standard or SPORTS?
sports :) i will share my settings later
My other Helicopters watched this, when I'm not Home . Revolutionary, bringing drone Flyers & new ppl into rotary wings.
:) it sure is my friend
Simply amazing. It’s a great price for the size, technology and what is basically RTF. Awesome video.
Couldn't agree more!
is the V2.5 the same as V3?
No
This insane and amazing bra
thanks
Will the GPS work in the UK?, another great video Ali well done.
Yes it will
Yes, exactly what I want for a helicopter!
How difficult is it to make it do FPV?
just install your favorite FPV System, power it using a stand alone small battery or use Flight battery
