FPV Chase - How to Stay Behind a Much Slower Plane?

Immersive RC plane chase using head-tracking FPV from the cockpit of iconic Flightline Spitfire MK IX 1.6m warbird (6s) vs E-flite T-28 Trojan 1.2m (4s), a much slower plane. Due to notable speed differences between the two, Spitfire has to use some basic fighter maneuvers to stay behind the T-28. Head tracking FPV camera enables each pilot to intuitively look at wingman through aerobatic maneuvers simply by moving his head without losing sight. It's the most immersive, realistic flying experience possible flying a RC plane.

Never get tired of your videos, the more realistic models the better.. the fact you have the same issues as in a real Spitfire is just fantastic

@motionsic Год назад

Thank you for the feedback! That’s why I love flying scale models, too. To relive full scale pilots experience as they see it in the cockpit. Their stories make more sense that way🙂

@JoinUsInVR Год назад

This would be AMAZING if recorded in 3D so we could view it in 3D VR too! A friend of mine @OpenPCReviews does that type of thing.

Most his stuff is VR filmed, but he ALSO does real life camera filming too.

I think in real life the frame around the cockpit windows aren't as much as a problem as it is for an FPV camera. The reason is that we have two eyes, so as long as the frame isn't too thick, one eye can always see past it. Try holding up a thumb at arm's length. Of you close one eye, you can completely cover an object from your view, but with two eyes open you can't. Very cool video btw.

@motionsic Год назад

Good explanation, I agree! Also eyes on pilot are not fixed, pilots torso can lean forward/ back and side to side to look around the frame.

I’m so trying to get into this! How do you power your vistas, do you use flight controllers? And how do you keep them from overheating in the closed canopies?

I don’t use flight controller. I use the original DJI air unit, exposed to open air, not vista. See picture of camera/gimbal/air unit setup in community.

Is the video quality this good on your vr headset as well? I would love to dive on this hobby one day but I saw other vr cam videos on YT and they were very low quality&glitchy looking (video turning black&white time to time) Btw this channel is GOLD 👍

@motionsic 10 месяцев назад

Yes, the video quality in my FPV goggles is as good as shown. 1080P 100FPS real time (30ms latency) high definition video without noise. Can even record in 4K. The poor quality FPV videos are analog systems. Good ones are digital FPV systems.

@borisvos1971 11 месяцев назад

Love this stuff man, a Mosquito or a P38 Lightning would be awesome, looking at the props and having a clear field of view not affected by a prop. That said, from a viewers perspective, the only thing making it standout immediately as RC is the speed at which the plane rolls and banks. If you play the video at .75%. or even .5%, it looks super realistic. I wonder: would there be a way to slow limit controls so the movement becomes more proportional to the real thing?

@motionsic 11 месяцев назад

Keen observations. An easy fix to get rid off the annoying rolling shutter effect from props

@redwineisfine Год назад

@motionsic 9 месяцев назад

Typically. 80mm EDF jets and above fit the gimbal better. Some exceptions in 70mm EDF jets fit also, like Viper 70 or Freewing BAe Hawk 70 with tandem seat canopy.

@embededfabrication4482 Год назад

what source should I use on my frsky x20 (ethos) for the pan and tilt channels? (trainer1 ??) I've got the bluetooth trainer enabled and I can see the inputs from the HT in the radio but they aren't moving the pan tilt servos.

@motionsic Год назад

Which channel signals are moving on the trainer screen? They should be the ones you specified in the HT app on PC. Our head-tracker default channels are 7 & 8. On the mixer page, you need to assign the correct source TrainerX and active condition to a switch, so you can activate and deactivate the gimbal servos. Once activated, you can see the signal on output.

@embededfabrication4482 Год назад

@@motionsic I have the right channels setup and I can see the HT moving the slider bars. I used "trainer 1" for the input in the mix I made.

@larsulrich3356 11 месяцев назад

Does your headtrackers ever malfunction like get stuck/hung up or drift? Is there a resetting ability?

@motionsic 11 месяцев назад

On unusually cold/damp days, it does drift a bit on start up. Drift diminishes once it warmed up. There’s a center button that can be pressed to center the gimbal servos.

@larsulrich3356 10 месяцев назад

Maybe you can develop some 03 air unit parts that allow for just as much or more degree of movement?

@motionsic 10 месяцев назад

O3 camera has much more movement with the gimbal in tilt downward, just see more of the gimbal🤣. With original air unit, movement already cover 360° views and tilt up to 90°, already matching natural head movement.

@larsulrich3356 10 месяцев назад

So the 03 has more pitch down range? Isn't the total range of the 03 only around 170 degrees for yaw motion range?@@motionsic

@motionsic 10 месяцев назад

@@larsulrich3356 why? The gimbal turns as far for O3 as it turns for original air unit camera - 280°. With camera FOV, covers much more than 360°

@larsulrich3356 10 месяцев назад

The reason why I ask is because in this video I interpreted that the 03 air unit has a range of motion limitation compared or in contrast to the old discontinued DJI air units. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HrbGPZNaalk.html@@motionsic

May I ask you what your method is to prevent your gimbal system from disconnecting at the gear system?(If you have one?)

@motionsic 10 месяцев назад

Not making sense, gimbal does not connect to gear?

@larsulrich3356 10 месяцев назад

No the throw sensitivity is too high at the lowest fatshark fsv1610 setting(default) and it will run off the gear if moved too much @@motionsic

@motionsic 10 месяцев назад

@@larsulrich3356 your second comment contradicts with the first; it was slowest and it was pretty fast?! I have not used Fatshark Headtracker for a couple of years, I despise that it centers the signal when pan limit is reached, which forces people not to use the full range of pan feature. Really not a good design.
