    Hi All, Such a great holiday. All the family travelled up north from Devon to Sowerby Bridge near Manchester for a barge holiday on the Rochdale Canal.

    FPV Spanky Magic Smoke Edition

    Hi All, Here we have the destruction of a 12a KISS ESC. The last flight done with this quad was my last video the FPV racing in Cornwall, the quad did so well that day as my backup quad and was landed at the end of the day in full working order. This day, I connected the Lipo to the quad, made...

    FPV Racing Split Screen Action

    Thank you @holtneil that 3d setup would be awesome on a racer as long as you had a lot of practise to get used to the view after using 2d for so long, those skyzones are a bit out of my price range for a while but maybe one day...;)

    Racing FPV Mini Quadcopters in Cornwall

    Hi All, A great morning spent FPV racing mini quadcopters in Cornwall, UK. Four quads are in this race, 2xZMR250, FPV250 and a Spanky 6. I am flying the larger quad due to a my Spanky 5 being out of action on the day. The 6 was not setup for racing and had only had a few flights done since...

    FPV Spanky Workshop

    Hi All, Going over some old footage I found this quick flight I got the chance to do around a metal workshop here in Devon. At the far end of the room I got quite a bit of break up in the video signal due to all the high power equipment which was very RF dirty but the still air inside the...

    FPV Spanky on the Rocks

    Here are some Photo's taken by my spotter on this day... The area was covered in fine dust... Which made for some great trails of dust when at speed... After the small tumble into the stinging nettles I realised a few magnets had come loose in the ZMR1804 motors which can be easily fixed with...

    FPV Spanky on the Rocks

    Hi All, We got permission to fly around a local active gravel quarry, no workers were on site during the weekend so we had the opportunity to check it out and have a fly around the all the equipment. This video was filmed back in September while the weather had a break from the rain and wind...

    FPV Spanky Quarry playground

    Hi All, During a break in the wind and rain I decided to revisit Merrivale Quarry but this time using my mini quadcopter, RealFPV Spanky. This building has some great history and has since been left to dis-repair, there is some excellent graffiti that when looked at from different angles is...

    FPV Racing Mini Quadcopters Advanced Course

    I would definitely cause stability issues with a 5th axis adding input, also you would have to have it very small and on some kind of gimbal otherwise it would be pulling or pushing you into the ground on heavy acceleration, unless you angled the motors forward by 15degrees, then at full speed...

    FPV Sheep Herding Mini Quadcopter

    Hi All, The challenge is to get the flock of sheep grouped together and then move them all to the bottom of the field so that they can be sheered. Normally the farmer would have to walk up the field with his dog and use whistles or commands at the dog to round the sheep up and move them to the...

    FPV Racing Mini Quadcopters Win/Fail

    Thank MM, sorry for the late reply. The Mobius is amazing bang for the buck and the small low profile form factor make it a winning combo, 1080p@30fps is done very well with the camera at about 15MBit/s, of course it does not compare to the GoPro for quality but I have less worries about...

    FPV Racing Mini Quadcopters Advanced Course

    Hi All, Such a fun day. A small West Devon FPV meet was organised by the guys from BBRC. The location was perfectly suited to this sport with different sections to the garden with mixes of nice long runs, woodland and obstacles. I have not flown with many other people FPV let alone racing them...
