Popular Post rubberduck Posted September 18, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) Today I came accross 2 amazing videos that were made by the 'Black Sheep Team' aka the RC Dare Devils, just watch and amaze yourself ! Video 1 Black Sheep Team in Thailand Video 2 Bangkok City Jam At the end of each video you get a menu where you can choose to see videos they made in America. I wonder what kind of video transmitter they use to control the plane, and how far it reaches etc. ? There are lots of RC plane video's, but I have never seen this kind before. Enjoy !

katana Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Nice. The BKK city jam one's good where they fly vertically down the buildings. Wonder what camera they used and how many got smashed in bumpy landings lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobo42 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Based on the logo near the start of the video, I'd say they were using gopro cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberduck Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) I guess the camera/video transmittor they use for flying the plane is another one then the GoPro used for the video. Not sure though IF it has a video transmitter. Edited September 19, 2012 by rubberduck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8milesfromhome Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 pretty cool, gotta get one of those planes from my go pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katana Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) One of the guys seems to be wearing video goggles receiving real-time footage from the plane's camera as it flies around. Would love to have this piece of kit but anticipate it's quite expensive... Edited September 21, 2012 by katana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to have this piece of kit but anticipate it's quite expensive... Thats interesting technique, actually never hear about it. I guess this is basically the same. The video on that site makes me remind insects such as flies wearing camera's, trained to enter a building, fly around making images and fly back to it's 'trainer'. Think they used that in Africa or Arabia to spy on terrorists. Edited September 22, 2012 by rubberduck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberduck Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) The Black Sheep team has just uploaded a new video were they use a quadrocopter with night vision It's interesting what you can do with this toys. Think of flying over a Formula 1 circuit during the races, a full football stadium etc... Not sure if appreciated by the management though, but when done clever you can sell the pictures for big money Edited September 23, 2012 by rubberduck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberduck Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 Today I came accross another video of the same kind, this one made using a RC quadrotor helicopter. Here you can clearly see the video goggles as ThaiVisa member Katana mentioned. It's interesting technique that can be used for many things. I guess flying the plane via the video goggles must be a whole lot of fun, better then a video game because it's 'real' !
