    Important tip for seawater/saltwater:
    Remove battery asap. And then dunk it completely and flush it in freshwater before all the drying procedure. Otherwise salt will stay in and will attract moisture and corrosion.
    After drying relubricate all metal parts.
    Happy flying and diving to You all :)

    • @ReneNieuwenhuis
      @ReneNieuwenhuis Před 13 dny +1

      Most of the time it’s over in salt water. Corrosion wil do its work, faster if you start after a water damage. It may fly now… but for how long? The motherboard, GPS board with IMU and barometer, ESC board (Engine Speed Controller) etc and connectors will affect the electronics in the long run. Not always do.

    Nice video Steve. Couldn't have scripted it better, with the water rescue of the water rescuer! Nicely detailed helicopter, and if it were 3 times bigger, I would consider it on looks alone. I fly a lot over salt water, and in my experience, a fresh water rinse, followed by a 91% isopropyl alcohol(71% works too) rinse and brush if you can, has saved me more than a few servo's, and flight control boards. That said, it was an enjoyable video. It looks pretty cool by itself where you can't scale it. I was going to say how flying this is like a camera drone, and not much skill is involved, but damn, those automatic features! My camera drone lost signal, and decided to do a get home dash, only not going high enough to clear the tree between me and the drone. Lol. Keep up the cool videos.

    @yakacm Před 14 dny +2

    Anything electronic if it gets wet, remove the power as fast as possible, like take the battery out in this case. It's not that the water does the damage per se, it's more that if the circuit is powered on it can cause the electronics to short. Oh and let if dry naturally, don't use a hairdryer or put it on a radiator. Funnily enough, about 15 minutes before I sat down to watch this, I was flying my little Eashines spy heli indoor. The heli flew in to the curtains and fell in the cats water fountain thing. The worst thing about it was that I had used a bit of tape to keep the battery in place as it kept falling out, so it took me a minute or 2 to remove the battery. I've got it drying out in it's box, I'll try it again tomorrow, hopefully its OK.

    That was cool! Especially the water landing!
    I had thought it would be neat if the helo could come with Canadian Navy markings, only to discover that Canada's Navy doesn't own any aircraft at all, let alone helicopters! All aircraft that operate in support of RCN (even the ones operating from ships) are owned by the RCAF. How weird, is that? It is so strange to go to all the trouble of integrating the service branches into a unified force, and then to demarcate who runs which functions so severely. I'd say its counterintuitive. But given that Canada's prime minister is ... oh, nevermind.

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Před 13 dny +1

      Someone needs a Canadian military history lesson. RCAF is Canada, as in the Royal Canadian Air Force, which is the same designation as per Canada’s involvement of WWII. We do have the Sikorsky CH-148 Cyclone as our heli on warships.

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Před 14 dny +2

      Optical flow means it uses a camera on the bottom of the heli to look at the ground a stabilize itself. This means it only works if you are 10 feet or lower to the ground. When you fly indoors you use optical flow. GPS mode means it connects to satellites in space so you use it outdoors at any altitude and it does not work indoors.
