Title: Helicopter for wireless webcam
Post by Smooth on Mar 10th, 2010 at 11:24am
Rad I enjoyed your reviews of the helicopter. Is your rig powerful enough to carry a wireless webcam? I snorkel and scuba dive; I'd like to lift a webcam to get an bird's eye view of the local reefs and shoreline.

that would be cool.
my rig is weak.
we used it once to lift a little clip-thingie, like what you use to clip together an inch of papers.
and just that made the heli fly rather unstable.
it still flew but not very well.
what do you expect for $15?
i saw on youtube a vdo of a guy using his gas-powered heli to catch a fish out over a pond.
very cool.
small fish. sun-perch or something like that.
if it drops in the drink, you're screwed. i'd guess big-bucks to fix. if at all.

Yep, you're right. For $15 smackolas it's amazing that the darn thing flies at all.

Hmmm... can you control it from the web?  ;D
