Get your Tricopter V4 here: rcexplorer.se/product/tricopt...
2016 I got to join the Rotor Riot on a trip to Ukraine. The trip was truly amazing. The guys from UADR (Team Ukraine) were the best hosts you could wish for.
We got to go in to the exclusion zone in Chernobyl and visit the ghost town Pripyat that was evacuated during the nuclear melt down.
We had permission to fly wherever we wanted within the town and we all got great footage. It was amazing to explore this place and drink in the history and scale of this disaster.
The UADR also hooked us up with a once in a life time opportunity. To fly around the Antonov 225 and AN 22! The worlds largest jet airplane and the largest propeller aircraft in the world!
Being an airplane nerd this really was crazy. Why the heck would they allow us to fly around this uniq aircrafts? There is literally only 1 in existence! Well it's built like a tank for sure. They even allowed us to climb on top of of both the 225 and AN 22! And I don't mean like be careful only step here one at a time thing. Noooo they let everyone that felt like being up there be there at the same time! Probably had 30 people walking around on the top of that plane at one time. Mind blowing.
Easily the best trip I've ever been on!
When I got back home it turns out that I lost all footage from inside Pripyat :(. Took me quite a while to get over this (hence why I'm posting now)
Huge thank you to Chad Nowak (FinalGlideAUS) for allowing me to use your follow footage. You should definitely check out his channel:

Also big thanks to Chad Kapper for inviting me and being a good friend.

I love my Tricopter. Bought a carbon fibre frame from you years upon years ago and it's still going strong. Would like to upgrade the old girl though, a mobius hook'n'looped to a polystyrene canopy ontop of a KK2.0 board is great for starting out, but it's a bit sluggish and the latency, is oh so bad. Keep up the fantastic work, Dave!

Where you inside also? I mean, was there a line of sight, or it was enough signal on reflections? Anyway, the video is cool. Pity the "green glowing" zone footage is not here.

Hey Chad K., you should dump the clowns on Rotorriot and try to get Chad N. and David W. Back on the team. I’ve told you many times that the greatest mistakes you ever made (among the many, many right ones) was selling FliteTest and letting David get away. I know you know all that stuff, but David has always been the missing link to what made FT so fantastic in the early years. Getting him back to FT or RR at any cost, and maybe even CN to boot would bring several more years of super success. FT has degenerated to team giggling and poor content and RR is pretty much a lost cause. I hope and pray for you guys all the time, and I wish luck to both teams.
@ulaB
@ulaB 6 лет назад
The first thing you should do is to ask David if he wanted to go back and work for FT or RR in the first place.
@RedstonePyroMan
@RedstonePyroMan 6 лет назад
It's true that flight test sucks anymore, but David HAD to go back home. Peter was at least a worthy successor in that regard. Flitetest's mistake was not finding anyone to take up the torch after Peter moved back to help his parents
