First GoPro 3 Black T-Copter flight

by RCTV-UK (Formerly Silly Fokker RC) | August 3, 2013 | (3) Posted in Just Fun

In this video Malc puts the GoPro 3 Black on Lisa's cheap little sport T-Copter. Although the Copter has not been balanced and the GoPro 3 is fixed directly to the chassis the footage is quite good. The T-Copter is a fantastic tool for capturing video with an of the wide angle cameras like the GoPro 3. All up this multi rotor only cost about 80 UK pounds to build which is about 120 us dollars. If you are thinking of getting in the world of RC multi rotors I really do recommending the T-Copter first. It's incredibly stable and it handles really well. Stick with 3s to begin with and when you have cracked flying without crashing spice it up with 4s. This thing really hauls with a 4s 1800Mah Lipo on it.

Anyway guys I hope you enjoyed the video.

Have you got a build video or article on your T-copter. Film footage is great, if the props were balanced and you made a camera rig like the Flite Test one you'd have it perfect

Hi CJGFX,

No build video on the T-Copter yet but I will do one soon. It is very close to the design of Matt Hall's Simple Copter design though.

I have just ordered the Tarot Gimbal which from the videos I have seen is very good. Expect to see video on that real soon in one of our more detailed episodes.
