RockSlide RS10 (FPV,Camera on board)

I decided to extend my FPV Plane hobby down to Earth. Here is a Shot with my GT-3 2.4Ghz Radio.

Close up of my Junk "thumbsup".. Its a 1.2Ghz Video TX that I use to transmit First Person View (FPV) footage back to my base station where I steer with a Pair of Video Glasses and my GT-3 TX.


Here is a Range test video I did in a small gully next to my house. Its full of brush and downed branches so I couldnt move to fast...

That's pretty awesome. I'd like to see some footage like that on some good rock lines.

Yea, I'm totaly digging FPV on land, and the fact that its a crawler makes most obstacles easily climbable. Oh, and It's like a different world when your down there like a bug! :mrgreen:
Unfortunately I cant use the pan/tilt option right now unless I ditch the pistol grip TX and move over to my 9CH flight radio.

what about some kind of dampened horizontal leveler that would do it as you lift up or down... just an idea, may not be a good one...

i say dampened so it dosn't make you throw up when u watch it. lol.

When dealing with FPV on RC Planes, there are head trackers that plug into your training port and insert extra channels into your existing radio.

Example:
FLYTRON (DAMNTRONICS) Hybrid Headtracker

But then I need at least a 5CH RX to operate 4X4 Steer and Head Tracking Pan/Tilt. :shock:
