    Default Micro FPV practice heli if anyone is interested

    Hi guys. I've made micro FPV helicopter for FPV practice inside the house. It works good to me and I thought I could share with you guys if anyone is interested

    could you maybe list all the FPV equipment you used in order to do this

    I'd like to do this on my 120 SR

    I've ordered stuff from here.

    but you can grab cheaper from ebay if you manage to find them. I think micro video tx is stocked in fast lad now. You might want to look into it.
    I've tried the same settings on mcpx, 120sr and mcx. and I have to warn you 120sr might be a bit tricky to fly for FPV.
    Hope it helps

    Nice one...

    I've seen guys making the parkzone micro planes FPV too, I want to see the first guy making one with head tracking now! I would make one myself but I have the fatsharks and they use airwave stuff why is on different channels to these micro TXs I believe. I'd have to buy a seperate RX too and I can't be bothered at the moment lol.

    The mQX should make quite a nice VTOL FPV platform.

    Yes I totally agree. I haven't tried the mQX version, but I'm sure it will be very stable platform for micro FPV

    The heli handles really well, in fact. I've tried this setting on mcpx, 120sr but those birds are difficult to control in FPV. so I had to try on coaxial, and tada! it's very good kit for practice FPV and I'm so happy with it

    haha yeah, that's true
    and I always get really shaky when I take out my 450 for FPV flying, no matter how many times I try. but with this mcx, there's no pressure whatsoever

    ps. I'm glad you enjoyed my clip.
