      Out of interest, which camera did you use - I've played with a flycam2 but it is pretty awful... My CX2 never sounded as low pitched as that - or was the footage slowed?
      Many thanks

          CX2 are tough little things. One thing after a crash always give the heli a keep check over as this could save your heli if something was to break. I find with the CX2 that the swash tends to come apart and you find it will want to fly forward. Good flying though and I like the idea of the camera

            Would you believe the camera cost £15 bnib from hk!!!! what a bargain, everyone i show it too wants one!!! Takes stills aswell. BTW the picture u see from you tube is crap compared to the one on my PC!!!! very clear.
            Really liking this stuff so far, my other hobby is suffering!!!!!
            It is a keyfob camera, footage not messed with at all!!!

            I have all ally parts including swash plate fitted to my CX2...........also fleabay purchase £26 !!!!! complete bargain!!

              Any chance of a link to the camera - that's a fraction of the flycam cost and the images are similar... my flycam is so unreliable though and this is the second one... Sound still sounds a bit odd though - more low-pitched than I remember on my CX2...
              Thanks
