This could be the next level of rc race driving.🙂
Thank you! I agree!
Now put 2 fpv cameras side by side and feed a 3D signal to the goggles for maximum immersion 🔥
YEAH!!!
Wow this is way less shaky than any other RC car fpv…very nice, finally usable
Thanks! Too be fair, I was running on soft suspension setting.
This is such a cool idea, I'd love to see more of this head tracking stuff like in a full blown GT1-GT5 style race with RC cars.
Thanks! Certainly a new perspective to enjoy RC car racing can’t hurt. One can enjoy one car both ways, line of sight & FPV racing on the same car.
This is taking rc to a whole new level
Thanks!🙂
I'm crying. That is my childhood dream
Hope it’s tears of joy. Cheers!
Genius.
Often I forget that I live in the future. Future full of amazing possibilities. 20 years before I cant even imagine video like this one.
WOW, AMAZING ...... FUTURE GAMES WILL BE IN ANOTHER LEVEL, IMAGINE MAKING FORMULA RACE IN A SMALL SCALE CARS WITH THIS CAMERA TECHNOLOGY WILL BE AMAZING . ALL DRIVERS CONTROLING THEIR CARS ONLY USING THIS CAMERA .
Interesting! I didn’t think of it this way. But this isn’t too far removed from “Ready Player One” experience, at least the head movement is similar. The line between real and virtual worlds are blurred a bit…
Finally, technologies really catch up to my dreams.
You should start bulding feedback chair next.
Agree! Exciting time to be alive!
Hopefully in 5 years , I can buy something like that for a reasonable price. I don't understand why the RC community hasn't embrace the goggles.
Indeed. Just need some more competition among goggle manufacturers to get the price more reasonable.
I agree too
Good job this is a complete like a real car.
Robert, your love of FPV knows no bounds! I tried this on my traxxis slash and it’s pretty fun! I wish we lived closer so we could geek out on all things FPV.
Haha, yes indeed. Patrick, you are a motor cycle enthusiast, right? That would be fun to try FPV, too. Though g force or internal gut feel probably play a bigger part on a motorcycle. Wonder if HT FPV would work for RC motor cycle?
Doin camera for those rc is worth for both expensive & cheaper rc..👍
Lol fpv the Losi dirt bike
Really creative idea and robotics!!
This should be very useful for other tasks such as Patrol the area around the farm, search for victims in disaster areas, survey dangerous areas, or even use it as a messenger on campus, etc.
Awesome, I have Redcat Wendigo and Axial SCX10 III Early Ford Bronco too!
All are good candidates for putting FPV system in.
Finally ! Lets get in race rc car
I am interested in drift cars…
Nice man! Keep the great videos up!!
Thanks!
Awesome project fpv!🎉❤
Too cool! Now imagine adding a wheel that controls it. Little sound effects too. Haha
That's a great idea!😁
This is the coolest, funnest hobby ever!! I'm barely getting into fpv rc cars!
Good of you to give it a go!
Way awesome!
Thats so incredibly cool
Your build inspired me to FPV my Wendigo. Just received my Motionsic B.A.G. today. Running a DJI 03 air unit and Googles 2. My pistol grip Radiolink RC8X has a DSC port for head tracking and 800 meter range. Should be enough, but if not it is also crossfire compatible. I think surface FPV is about to get more popular and I can`t wait to see the advancements made this year.
Thanks for your support! Make sure to give plenty of air flow to the O3 Air Unit. It runs hotter than OG Air Unit and requires a fan for surface FPV applications to prevent over-heating. Looking forward to your footage!
“Driving rc cars recklessly is a lot of fun”😂hit it right on the nail
Awesome 👏
1:11 lol All your videos are sick asf. Subbed.
I've been thinking about this since I got my first Tyco RC Lambo Countach back in the late 80's. I always wanted to be inside driving it and this is the closest thing. The possibilities with this type of tech are so huge. A live action video game pretty much.
Damn i love it, good work bro.. 👍👍👍
Thanks, Cheers!
Insane!!!
Awesome as always!!!
Thanks Domingo!
Very cool!👍
That is amazing Brother love it!!
Thank you! Cheers!
You could fit cars with actual working little rearview and side mirrors. I bet you'd be able to see just fine through that camera
Cool idea!
You need a sound module on that thing. Lol awesome video
Thanks! That would be cool! Cheers!
"Whats my purpose?" "You sit in this car and are my eyes" "Oh my god" 😂
That, looks fun!
It is! Cheers!
Awesome. Would like to try this out someday God willing.
As a kid I could only dream of this! I remember playing revolt. Why isnt anyone buying an abandoned factory to turn it into a fpv racetrack? Car designs could be revolt inspred as well they have a lot of fun ones
There are dedicated indoor RC race tracks, not quite as big as a factory but quite sizable.
@@motionsic thats cool!
this is insanely cool
Thanks. Cheers!
impressive
good video
Thanks, cheers!
would love to see a more detailed install video on this one
would be great if we could 3d print a pod for easy swap to other cars!
Will do!
ok i guess i know what's going to occupy my time all summer.
What a great view!
Thanks Rick!
Oh I'm SO doing this - How Cool.
Great! FYI RadioLink RC6GS and R8X surface transmitters allow head-tracker input, no need to use airplane transmitters as stated in video.
@@motionsic Thanks for the tip!!! : just spent the weekend upgrading a 20 year old Losi 1/10th race truck with brushless motor/esc and the Radiolink RC6GS. Enabled 2-Axis head tracking on the DSC port of the Tx - plugged the head tracking servos into ch 5 and ch6 : works perfectly. Closest to Plug & Play yet for head tracking FPV.
@@vitale6633 Hooray! Enjoy new adventures from the cabin perspective. The narrower the trails, the more exciting the drive. Enjoy👍

I think that jeep driving looked awesome! And a little roll is always nice, as long as it doesn't flip. Let's you know there's some forces on the chassis, adds more feeling 😀
Thanks! I am a rank beginner on anything surface. Lots to learn on on suspension tuning and such. Your rally cars seems to strike a balance of sharp controls yet supple enough to soak up bumps!
@@motionsic I also tend to go on pretty flat roads to reduce vibration in the feed. In the winter time, there was some rough sections where it was really hard to see what was going on due to all the motion when going over frozen unevenness in the road. But hey, sliding around in FPV is so much fun! :D
I've been waiting for an "off the shelf" one of these for sooooo long now!
Not likely to have a plug and play FPV car any time soon, not with digital FPV anyway since the cost of the visual system is more than the car. Here are the main components if you are interested:

This is amazing. I need this in my life.
A little adventure around the neighborhood from a mini-me perspective is fun!
@@motionsic I spent the last few hours looking into FPV and FPV with head tracking and i keep getting sent back to your videos. You should make a DJI tutorial from beginning to end. whats need, what to purchase, what to solder what where. all the info. I think you would get a lot of hits. I know i would be here. You do good work. The above video is wild. My worry is the spend all that money and to burn something up.
@@blessedwithdeath good suggestion, I will do one soon from beginning to end.
@@motionsic That would be amazing.
I really don't know that much about FPV and never really thought goggles would be comfortable to wear. I have been considering trying out FPV on an RC car and watching on a monitor. Your idea kind of changes my thoughts on how to approach FPV. This sure would make driving so much easier. Awesome... Oh btw the image quality of the pivoting camera looks excellent. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thanks for your compliments. It is as easy and as intuitive as driving a real car, which everyone knows how to do. Just investigate digital FPV if you like the image quality. Pick among DJI FPV, Walksnail or HDZero. The de facto leader is DJI FPV. A bit pricey but worth it in my opinion.
@@motionsic Thank you so much for the leads. I agree.. DJI systems have such a clean image but they are pricey.
This looks so fun 🎉
Indeed it was!
Fpv rc crawlers are alot of fun. I'm planning on getting a BAG gimble soon. Just need to add a roll servo for leaning out the driver's side window. What controller are you driving with?
I was using a Futuba T10J air transmitter.
this is so cool i need to try it on my UDR
What’s a UDR?
@@motionsic traxxas UDR , I would like to remove the shell and try to add the FPV system , that's the only RC I have 😭
Very nice.
RC bike with head tracking next.
That would be cool!
Now you need a copilot based on gps giving you pace notes and you've got yourself a WRC-RC
That’s the idea! Great suggestion!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think this might be fun on a TRX4 trail machine, not so much a rock crawler but on an actual trail in the forest or something.
I agree. Narrow trails with tall obstacles on both sides are the best!
This so sick I'm new to the hobby and I'm already 3 cars in and 2500 down in my amazon cart lol 😆 not included the drones I want to pick up.
It's slightly easier with the mechanical stability of fixed wing vs rotorcraft, but either case the secret would be to rig one of the momentary transmitter buttons as essentially a "free look" button, when you press it locks heading and attitude and frees head tracking to gimbal, on release it snaps back to centre and releases controls.
Why? I fly with head-tracking activated for the whole flight from takeoff to landing, no issues. It’s just like flying full-scale, no difference: th-cam.com/video/N5cBKmFZ6Lo/w-d-xo.html
this is how the aliens are controlling us right now
Extraterrestrial or illegal aliens?🤣
thanks Robert. I´ll do the same
Thought about trying this on my xmaxx. As I want to try it on a plane as well. Never tried the head tracking yet.
I make it a mission to make the head-tracking part easy to install🙂.
There should be FPV car racing leagues ( F1 [UF1], NASCAR, MotoGP (motorcycles), etc. ). Think about using a 3 axis gimbal...yaw, pitch, and roll.
Working on one.
I think you should put little springs under the drivers seat to give it a slight suspension. So the camera doesn't appear to be so rigid in its movements. When its bouncing etc.
Just an idea
Good idea! Will check it out…
@@motionsic maybe swap lens for larger field of view aswell?
This is exactly what I've been wanting to do with my RC crawler.
You mentioned using a different receiver; can you give specifics of what was used in this video?
I used a Futuba T10J TX (for airplane use) and the 8 channel receiver that it came with. But that’s overkill for this application. Someone in these comments has pointed to an affordable option, Radiolink Transmitter that can readily work with head-tracker (with PPM-in) jack:

Will do!
Why isn't FPV rc car racing a thing? This footage gives me adrenaline trip just watching it on a phone screen!
Cost could be a factor. Might need someone to promote it, too.
@@motionsic that's true. I know FPV drone racing is expensive, for sure. But then again, FPV drone racing is a thing. Who knows. Some things become, well, things!
I’m in! Have been building my 6s fpv racer. Not done yet but learning tons and really enjoying it.
Actually the new rc car transmitters today can use the headtracking system
Really? Cool!
The fpv camera could also mount a small laser for lasertag
Yeah, there are existing kits that can be easily adapted for this. Check out FPV-Combat.com
Can you do a Tutorial how to built it. And how do you connect everything. 🙏💪😂
🥰🤩💥💯👍👏👏👏
Great idea! Thinking of doing this one one of my cars, but wondering what the surface radio setup is? I've seen the video for the IX12, but i'm wondering what you're doing for the crawlers here!
I used a air transmitter since I don’t normally use surface radios. But Radiolink has one RCG6S that can use the head-tracker, quite affordable, too:
www.amazon.com/Radiolink-Transmitter-Receiver-Crawler-Drifting/dp/B07DPNNTWT/ref=asc_df_B07DPNNTWT/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=507593790682&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=16166407696070618192&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9031532&hvtargid=pla-865252353059&psc=1
This has certainly got good fun and sinister intent written all over it along with defensive nature as well
VERY nice stuff. You're using an air receiver and transmitter? All of this head tracking stuff is now incorporated in the RadioLink land receivers and transmitters too - pistol grip style.
Wow Great! Thanks for letting me know. Need to go buy one and test it out. Care to share a link?
👌🏼🍫
🍻🙂
This is awesome!!! Can you post a list of the parts you got to set this up? I need to try this.

Hey man, I love this video!
Would you mind sharing what that orange camera is? I've been having a hard time finding non-FPV very small cameras.
Thanks!
It’s RunCam 2 4K
how did you connect the rc radio to the truck? awesome work bro ...
Trainer cable, common for plane transmitters, less so for car transmitters.
Trainer cable, common among rc plane transmitters. Less so for RC car transmitters. Though this one has trainer connection::
www.amazon.com/Radiolink-Transmitter-Receiver-Crawler-Drifting/dp/B07DPNNTWT
Really cool developments. Wow. What’s the setup cost for this FPV experience on my RC.
About $900 for the full head-tracking FPV setup.
great, I watched your video twice ahaha. I have the dji goggle 2 and I'm going to buy the dji air unit o3, but how do I get the gyro signal from the v2 helmet to transmit to the headtrack motors? which kit to buy? (robotic arm) need special cables? I will install on the traxxas UDR
We normally utilize trainer mode of air transmitters for head-tracker input. For surface transmitter, they need to have a DSC port (look like 3.5mm audio jack) to input head-tracker signal. Not sure if Traxxas transmitter has one. But RadioLink RC6GS & RC8X comes ready to accept head-tracker signal. Gimbal servos simply plug into 2 specified receiver channels.
@@motionsic merci beaucoup !!
Hey Robert, I am new to the hobby and really interested in this FPV setup. Can you make a detailed video of the build?
Will do! Thanks for your business!
@@motionsichi, i am super interested in this too! please do
Very nice!
I am more of a fpv drone enthusiast but this makes me want to buy a car and put one of my dji fpv units in it.
Which rc cars would you recommend that aren't too expensive and easy enough to fit the motionsic gimbal in it ?
Also does the head tracker work with the radiomaster zorro transmitter ?
This Redcat Wendigo fits the gimbal nicely, I think other rock crawler or rock racers in the 1/10 scale would work, too.
RadioMaster Zorro has a DSC port to connect with our head tracker (using trainer function), so it works!
Read this page: fpvdogfight.com/blogs/news/head-tracking-fpv-setup-on-rc-plane-or-car
@@motionsic Thanks for the quick response. The wendigo seems nice indeed, but I don't think there is any physical or online rc shop in France (where I live) proposing it.
What is the other blue car of your buddy in the video ? it also looks nice.
Really cool! Subscribed!
I see jet pilots FPV! Do they have youtube channel?
Yeah sure! Which ones are you thinking of?
@@motionsic Those jet fov team flyers?
What pan tilt mount are you using with the dji air unit
Been doing this on cars since the early analog days but haven’t used head tracking
It’s built into the goggles right?
Head-tracker is separate from goggles but physically attached to sense head movement and shares goggles power.
Hey, what are you using to cool the HD FPV AIR UNIT KIT?
Nothing, I just keep the car moving. Not the best. A CPU fan would be better.
Neighborhood Watch
Indeed, that’s a excellent use of the tech!
Why are we trying to create photorealistic games ? They're already there !
Word! Novel way to wonder around your own neighborhood, or do neighborhood watch😉
Hi, I just discovered your channel recently and I fell in love with the head tracking fpv flight footage! Unfortunately it's a headache in Germany to fly planes with cameras onboard.
Then I saw this and it is almost as cool. Can you provide either a list of components to buy for exactly this setup or sell it to me? I have no experience in RC stuff, do a one stop solution would be best for me.
Best,
Luca

@@motionsic What car is it? And which receiver/transmitter did you use?
You will also need a surface radios controller that has DSC port to accept head-tracker signal like RadioLink: th-cam.com/video/0H5zo-yfWdw/w-d-xo.html
It’s fairly straight forward to setup all the components with included instructions. We are happy to help if you have any questions.
Greetings from California
Robert/Motionsic
@@LimaUniformCharlieA the car is this one: www.redcatracing.com/products/redcat-wendigo-1-10-scale-brushless-electric-rc-rock-racer
The controller I used is a RC plane controller, which you do not need.
You can use this one: www.amazon.com/Radiolink-Transmitter-Receiver-Crawler-Drifting/dp/B07DPNNTWT
I want it
Cannot find any SRXL v1 cables. Any ideas?
What is the distance and how do you get it to go that far without cutting out and how many of these can be operated within the same vicinity at one time?
Depending on the radio used and how many things are blocking signal transmission. Goggles allow up to 7 players to play together at once.
Question. I need to control multiple RC cars using one radio. How can I achieve this?
Ex: I need to drive one car to a location, park it. Then using that same radio, take control of a different car, while the first one remains parked, and drive that one somewhere. Then be able to switch back and forth, between the cars
Most Computer radios (transmitter) can be bind to different receivers in each car. So when you select a particular car in the transmitter, only that receiver would be under control. Works the same way in planes. Spektrum, FrSky all have this function. Futuba seems to be different, even if the wrong car is selected, both car would be under control at the same time.
Do you think 70 mm jest are to small? I want to get into fav but and Iv got a yak 130 and a 70 mm viper. I hope they would work!
They would work if you don’t use a overly heavy battery. Ideally, 80mm jets and above are more appropriate. Truth is, the bigger the plane, the more authentic the in cockpit experience would feel closer to full scale. Flight dynamics don’t scale well when planes are below a certain size. And I really would not recommend flying head-tracking FPV for planes under 40” wingspan.
@@motionsic ok thanks! I want to get into fav but as of rn I’m limited by price. Hopefully soon! I’m thinking of going down the dji rout.
I just got my first set of fat shark goggles . Can you link me to this camera setup? I’d love to buy this cam and transmitter
Which Fatshark goggle do you have? If you want to use head-tracker, find Trinity head-tracker module for your goggles. The camera for this setup only works with DJI FPV goggles. You can get the gimbal and head-tracker here:

I assume that you will run in frequency overlapping issues when you doing a race with a lot of peoples.
The FPV system I use allow up to seven people playing together.
Will the tbs crossfire nano receiver work ? For the head unit ?
Not really, the gimbal to move the camera has two servos which need servo connections to receiver which the Crossfire Nano does not have.
I wonder if this would work with a 360 camera so you don't have to worry about the camera having to move around
What brand is the small camera you put on the hood.
RunCam 2 4K
Hey what size of rc car? Do you think that it fits to 1/12 size rc cars?
It’s a Redcat Wendigo 1:10 Rock Racer. So 1/12 should still work. The gimbal needs a a flat plate to secure the base on. I hot glued a piece of plywood on the body shell for the gimbal to anchor on.
