Since I was a kid (now 40) I’ve always wanted to shrink myself down to get that in vehicle feel in my rc toys. You guys have brought that dream to reality and really changed the rc experience. Last guy I watched had the real time stat hud display on his goggles. Any closer to real flying you’d have to radio the tower for landing and takeoff.❤

[@virgis21]

The best FPV video! That’s how I love FPV! Thanks for sharing! Keep uploading! Perfect skill, perfect edit, perfect voice talking! Thank you!

[@motionsic]

Wow! Appreciate your compliments! Still lots of room for improvements, especially the talking part. I find it a challenge to talk and fly at the same time, not enough brain bandwidth to spare, haha!

[@virgis21]

@@motionsic do voice over! I was fov flyier for many years, many years ago :) your videos are inspiring me to come back to airplane fpv flying!!! Really nice to watch yours! Fly more!! :)

[@justinh7099]

Hey there! I stopped by this flight area and all of you were extremely nice and helpful for a curious onlooker like myself! It was wild to see the FPV setup and everything these RC planes can do. Keep up these excellent videos!

[@motionsic]

Glad you are able to visit. Trabuco Flyers is a great club with very friendly people. So are most RC clubs in general. Very nice people willing to help others to get into the hobby🙂

[@tombeers3489]

Great video!!! You are killing FPV. The reflector sight is excellent. Seems to really help with overall attitude awareness and flight control...in addition to lining up the bad guys.

[@motionsic]

Thank you! Indeed, you sum up the value of reflector sight succinctly - it provides excellent attitude reference against horizon, approximate flight path indication and imaginary bullet trajectory indication. Really useful gadget.

[@user-rs1fo2dd9b]

@@motionsic did you make the reflex sight yourself?

[@motionsic]

@@user-rs1fo2dd9b no, but I have acquired the rights and knowhow to mass produce it.

Lol this is so awesome, thanks for the new idea!! I can just imagine 5 friends with some RC F/A-18s flying in formation then they battle other say SU-35s or something with mini airsoft guns mounted like a vulcan cannon

[@marioserafimov6714]

I love your videos buddy. Are you using in hand radio or a flight stick and throttle?

[@motionsic]

Thanks! I use a typical RC transmitter.

[@marioserafimov6714]

Have you ever considered the stick and throttle to add more realism to your setup, which is already as real as it gets with rc? I had the idea of transfering all the potentiometers from a regular 9ch FlySky into my pc Stick ( + separate throttle and rudder pedal) and run the cables into the transmitter but life caught on.. Im pretty sure that nowadays such a beast is sold as PNP

[@jasonkwon1994]

How do you figure out which way to push your control sticks for airlone and rudder? You cannot see which way the plane is pointing while wearing goggles. Is this why you fly FPV at sunset? To use the sun as a reference point?? Do you turn your body around to align with the plane??

[@motionsic]

Flying at sunset is for better videography effect - golden hour; has nothing to do with how to control the plane. Flying using FPV goggles is intuitive, just like flying a real airplane from the cockpit. Not like flying RC when you have to think about if airplane is flying away or toward yourself.

[@sotm6078]

How do you get the gunsight in the view??

Buy one. We are releasing them this week.

@@motionsic do you have any idea what is the best OSD?

[@AtomPilsener]

That looks awesome. How much does it cost and how much effort does it take to build something like that? I want it 😃

[@motionsic]

About $2700 USD, but I would only recommend it for a experienced RC flyer. Would be overwhelming for someone with no RC flying experience.

[@AtomPilsener]

@@motionsic isnt it more intuitive even for beginners considering not flying it from the side but from the cockpit? Not discussing just wondering honestly 😄

[@motionsic]

@@AtomPilsener true, for flying it is more intuitive to fly from cockpit view. It’s the building and integrating of different systems and making corrections, those take experience that most people flying RC would have acquired, but beginner would not have.

[@AtomPilsener]

@@motionsic so you mean like the mechanical part of it?

[@motionsic]

@@AtomPilsener no, mechanically is fairly simple plug and play. But skills on setting up RC transmitter, wiring, basic trimming of plane how to tune a plane for good performance , behavior, etc.

I been flying RC for the past 15 years n never pay Close attention to FPV until now n I regret all those years that I missed, I feel like I missing out half of my life that I should. But I finally made today flew my very first FPV n something went wrong but I’m not given up n will do this unless the government stop me🤣. I rather do FPV than having sex if you ask 👍🤣🤣. Thank you for these wonderful skills you have n awesome videos bud. Please keep it coming. I will soon get me a jet once I get my FPV license ❤❤❤

Is head tracker only compatible with DJI goggles?

[@motionsic]

Head-tracker works via trainer cable or Bluetooth trainer mode of RC transmitter, independent of DJI VTX/ Goggle transmission. Only the HT case is made to easily attach to DJI goggles.

[@GlideStxr]

Thank you for the clarification, amazing work!

[@GlideStxr]

@@motionsic hey so i just ordered my BAG and HT, just wanted to check to see if theres anything else i need to get/check compatibility. im using a tx16s mk2 with crossfire and orqa fpv.one pilot. is there anything i should be worried about? anything additional i need to order? (specific cables etc) thank you again, really hoping that this works. ps i am new

[@motionsic]

@@GlideStxr Thanks for your support! You probably need some servo extensions if you need longer lead to ease removing cockpit/battery hatch. TX16S mk2 should work out of the box with included trainer cable. Also the HT mount is designed to custom fit DJI FPV Goggle hardware.

[@GlideStxr]

@@motionsic okay perfect thank you! i got the tx16s trainer cable ordered too just in case lol. also in regards to mounting the HT, i will do my best to figure it out and make it fit on the orqa, will update here when i figure it out! 😁
