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 !

ps, watch them on full screen for the best experience

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

Based on the logo near the start of the video, I'd say they were using gopro cameras.

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.

pretty cool, gotta get one of those planes from my go pro.

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...

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.

Cool .....but the soundtrack gave me a headach

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

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' !
