Finally got the camera mounted on my 450 tonight!

Here's a couple of pics of my 450 with the FPV camera mounted to the front of the canopy!





Not sure just yet where I'll mount the battery or TX for the FPV system, probably on the underside of the heli.

Cool! Can't wait to see the FPV videos. What kind of FPV system is this?

 

[DAL2855]

It is a 5.8ghz system, not sure of the make, will have to look it up, but has camera, TX RX goggles and everything, and I bought the USB attachment to record video and shoot pics on my laptop with it!

I'm afraid you are going to get wicked vibrations right there. But, we will just have to wait and see. Hope it all works out for you.

+1 i think it will look like you are in an earthquake. If its hard mounted to the frame, that will work the best, but everything must be balanced to perfection. Hope it works for you.

Ok will have to remember all of this. So should I just maybe leave it on the hat cam mount then instead of trying to mount it directly onto the helicopter? Probably would be alot more satisfied with the video quality and stuff right?

I have done some videos with my 450. All had vibration issues. The best was on the horizontal stabilizer. Here are some videos and pics on my 450 and 500.

So maybe I should just keep mine on the custom hat mount I built then right? So I don't have all the vibration issues!
