Here was the dream I had as a child (about 50 years ago).
Mine, too! It’s a dream shared by many to shrink down and pilot one’s model planes. Now it can be a reality, visually!
Ikr
These guys at motionsic make the very best pan and tilt systems on the market,hands down
Its changed my whole flying experience. Puts jitters in your stomach! Loving every jitter!
Wow, what an endorsement! So glad to hear you are loving the flight experience Bob! That’s the best reward for our development efforts!
Beautiful flight and nice commentary
Thanks for the encouragement!
You are The Master of FPV RC, sir. Total control. Thanks for the great vids.
Thanks! Not sure I deserve the praise😅, lots to learn still. Cheers!
Fantastic presentation. Well done, sir!
Thanks!
Love the new video, I see you got your gimbal for sale. I will be buying that shortly, so glad to see you still making videos.
Thanks for the encouragement!
There you said it again, procedure turn ! Proof you're a full scale pilot as well.
Haha, you caught me!
Nice! Got the FPV experience sitting in front of my PC. Liked the narration plus the inserted text. I have this Bird & She flies well. Maybe not as crisp as my 80mm FMS Futura but still a good addition to the EDF fleet.
Thanks! Please notice on your next flight of the Xfly Sirius, if you see the quirkiness pulling out of a dive/loop as seen @ 3:02, it was not smooth...
Ill pay that flight. Nice work mate. Beautiful view and narration.
Haha, thanks mate!
This is a fantastic video. I feel like a pilot. I am satisfied.
Your videos are brilliant! You use FPV with pan tilt on jets. It’s most attractive. Keep going! As for me, I want make model a cowl (hood) for fpv camera and embed it in the stock cockpit. It should reduce an air drag originated from indoor cockpit surfaces without glass cap. Also, it will allow move in forward fpv camera a little bit more and add more useful display field. Just an opinion.
If you can make clear canopy, please make one for me. I would love to buy clear canopy so I can use it on my jets. The stock canopy from factory have too much distortion so can’t be used!
good evening, that' swell shots.
Thank you!
Epic, this is what we need!
Bro u are enjoying, but we are also taking amazement from cockpit
Glad you like it!
Very Nice Rob! Love it! 👍👍
Thanks Ken!
Great video!
Thanks Daniel!
Awesome video. Nice hints for the line-of-sight pilot. I was going to print my own camera mount for my FreeWing F-5 FPV project but after seeing that your gimbal comes with custom servos that allow for a lot of extra movement I pulled the trigger on your setup. Should be a blast in the speedy F-5. My NANO 33s finally came in after a 7 week wait so I'm ready to go from fixed FPV to head tracking!!!
Thanks Harold for choosing my gimbal. Much appreciated! The FW F-5 cockpit is quite small and overall airframe is on the small side, too. I do wonder if there would be enough room to fit everything in and keep CG in acceptable range. Do you also have the DJI FPV camera/air unit setup? I am very interested to see your F-5 setup once you have it in place. It would be a true testament of my gimbals compactness and flexibility of install if you pull it off! Do share your pics and videos, please! -Robert
Yes, I'm using DJI Air Units. I'll let you know how it works out on this one.
Real nice indeed 😎
Thanks!
this is rad i want this in an RC car

很棒的飛行!!!
😁謝謝您捧場, 過獎了😅
😮 🤯 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Want to learn to fly so bad - VERY impressive! Just found the page. Subbed an liked!
Thank you. Consider joining a local RC flying club. They can show you how to get started properly flying line of sight (conventionally). A flight simulator like Realflight really helps, too!
@@motionsic I do have some simulators. I really want to get more and more into it. Thanks!
Hi, i am starting to scratch build a MiG-35S model and i have few questions...
1.What do you think about automatic slats/Krueger flaps on rc model? It could automatically slide out when wings are pitched up (based on gryo data).
2.MiG-35 can use the KLIMOV VT nozzles for Thrust Vector Control, I am planning to make a complicated copy of this system, but I don't know what type of controller should i use for multi servo-multi channel mixing.
3.I am wondering if I should use one big or two medium sized batteries for this model. How would you spit power from two batteries in your MiG-29 freewing? First battery for Edf's + the other one for servos?
1. Model airfoils are usually quite different from full scale airfoils and often already quite a bit thicker and already adapted for high angle of attack attitudes. So not sure how the automatic /Krueger flaps would help besides just aesthetics. I don't know enough to answer properly.
2. I don't know enough about KLIMOV VT nozzles to answer. Often I favor simple builds over complicated ones. So I am not the right person to ask.
3. The batteries (2x 6S 6000) for my Mig-29 is one for each ESC/EDF. Only one of them has BEC to supply power for all the electronics, and that's sufficient.
Great video and flying! I currently fly FPV with fixed camera and a fixed center screen OSD "+" marker on the horizon to judge flare on landing. With head tracking how are you judging the amount of flare on landing? Thanks.
Having the instrument panel top in view against the horizon gives great attitude reference. Would not work if camera is out front, obstruction free.
Wow! You have come a long way! Are you narrating while flying a plane and recording yourself or are you narrating in post?
Thanks Skybug! Narrating in post. I can’t really talk and fly at the same time, haha. Even recording in post took several tries.
Nice vid, I miss HUD though.
Thanks! I hear you…
Awesome, can you please list all the FPV equipment that you used with the Sirius. New to FPV thanks Steve
Sure! These are what I use:

Superb. Very nice to watch. How does a hesitation roll with the Spitfire go? I haven't really tried with my little Spit, but with my old PZ 109 it takes a lot of aileron and rudder to hold a knife edge - I think because of the dihedral. It makes it very hard to do accurately (not fpv either).
I am about to setup my FMS winter camo BF-109F up for FPV. You are right about the coupling during knife edge. I try to mix the coupling out both in aileron and elevator so that rudder input only affects yaw in knife edge. It’s part of my initial LOS trimming steps before setting up FPV. Probably have to re-trim after adding FPV equipment (more weight). Will show you how it goes soon!
@@motionsic I look forward to it - I hope you can get someone else on the Spitfire for a bit of a chase :) I have no mixing on my models as I like to add rudder in turns myself to make them look nice (at least from the ground) But doing slow and 4 point rolls is must more of a challenge with the plane wanting to self-level. I looks like it should be much simpler with the jets or aerobatic models.
@@avipatable You’re right about jets being much easier to fly. The takeoffs and landings in both Spitfire & BF -109 can easily go pear shape if not careful, hesitation rolls, too😉
@@motionsic Ah yes but pulling of a greaser is so satisfying! Perhaps I will look at a jet one day...
Awesome! Did you fly with a canopy over camera this flight? Footage is very sharp!
Thanks Karel, good to hear from you! No canopy over camera, too much distortion. How are you liking the BAG in the FW-190? I am waiting to see the video😁
Do you recommend trimming the Freewing Su-35 before calibrating or programming the thrust vector system?
Of course, the plane needs to be well trimmed without the TV operating. Than add TV to augment maneuverability. But I am not an expert on the Su-35. The person to ask is @Airguardian.
@@motionsic I have been speaking to him often.
Do you use magnets or mini magnets for things like nose/tail cones and such? I am trying to get an answer out of air guardian as of which ones to get. I don't want to glue them.
Yes. The newer models all come with magnets for ease of removal. I even do them for the cannons on my Spitfire.
@@motionsic My freewing su-35 didn't come with magnets. It instructed to have the cones glued on.
I hope you can come up with a solution for flight instruments unlike the GPS. Like lay over instruments.
Working on it…
@@motionsic that would be great.
